A repeat of Part 3 of the cross-over which aired as an episode of The Flash runs on Monday leading up to the conclusion. Note that Arrow will continue to air in the Tuesday 8 PM EST timeslot until it wraps up its final season later this month. Also this week, Syfy’s The Magicians returns for its fifth season on Wednesday (see trailer below).

Schedule Notes: If a show is listed as On Hiatus, that means that it is taking a break of more than two episodes in a row. If a streaming series is included in the listings after its premiere date, then it releases new episodes once per week on that day as opposed to releasing its entire season at one time.
