While Jeremy Jordan's return as Winn Schott in the first post-Crisis episode, 'The Bottle Episode' got fans excited, there was more reason for them to celebrate as the fan-favorite made a staggering entrance in 'Back From the Future' Part 1.

"Aahhhh Jeremy miss your Winn face so much #Supergirl," tweeted a fan. A lot many fans seconded this. "Winn is back. #Supergirl" was the phrase of the evening. One fan wrote: "Can't wait to see Winn back, I've really missed him. I have a good feeling about tonight's episode. I'll be watching as always."

"So great to see Kara’s best friend back. Winn was always her true friend. No manipulation or whining," said another fan.

And here's a fan who went pretty bonkers. "WINN IS BACK HOLY SHIT. AND HE HAS A SUIT AND A MASK??????? WAIT DOES HE HAVE POWERS NOW," he asked.

"I've been looking forward to this episode ever since I knew David was directing it & Jeremy was returning as Winn!" tweeted a fan. "WINN SCHOTT JUNIOR IS BACK B*****".  Now that's excitement. 

This tweet might hurt Jesse Rath fans. "Wish @JeremyMJordan was staying permanently. The show’s not the same without him. I much prefer him over brainiac5." And off-screen, here's a tweet that sees Jordan as a philanthropist: "That Jeremy Jordan guy, he's a nice fella. He helped us with a charity event. The girl who won his donation burst into tears with joy."

This fan can finally start watching 'Supergirl' again: "Seriously haven't cared for Supergirl since Winn left he was my favorite other than Supergirl. With lex on the show and Lena turning on her I stopped watching until the latest crisis crossover. Decided to watch to see what changes after, if Winn comes back I might start watching."

'Supergirl' airs on Sundays at 9 pm on The CW.
