Another fantastic episode.

Kyle Chandler is absolutely fantastic as Hal Jordan. Just enough weariness, snark and and “I don’t give a fuck” that it works. Aaron Pierre is equally good! And together, well, this is casting perfection.

Sheriff Kane (Kelly Mcdonald) is an interesting character — and from Gotham too!

Sinestro, SINESTRO!

I need to learn more about the Manhunters.

It sounds like the theory that John Stewart’s dad being a Green Lantern too won’t work since Hal Jordan explicitly stated that the ring came to him from Abin Sur.

I did not know about the creating living things bit.

Hal Jordan driving around town with a group of dead naked aliens was both morbid and hilarious.

While the show is mostly serious, the levity that it has weaved throughout is welcomed and worked in well.

@mookie 

Stellar episode. And just enough special effects to keep its super hero edge. I don’t know why, but I LOVE seeing Hal take off.

Maybe because he has this “every dude” vibe. It reminds me of Nathan Petrelli fleeing HRG and The Haitian in Heroes.
