    Sara's affinities strike me as she's bisexual and biromantic, but generally leans heavily toward hetero(flexibly)romantic. She's very much attracted to both men and women, but just tends to date guys.

    This is supported in her personality traits that suggest she may find "girly" girls to be too frustrating to deal with romantically, while the machismo that's far more common among men is something with which she's fairly comfortable.

    She's not at all opposed to being romantic with a woman, look at Nyssa. But! She just rarely finds women she's romantically interested in. Perhaps she tends not even to look for that, because past experiences have (perhaps incorrectly and unfairly) taught her that "women are too soft" for her.

    But more importantly, I love how you could practically hear the ship-gasm after the Supergirl finale.

    This seems like a perfectly reasonable interpretation

    I wish it was in the show

    I literally pulled all of that just from what I'd seen on screen and exactly nothing else.

    I don't think the shows make that point at all

    It's a fan interpretation, and that's fine as an interpretation

    But for shows that have never before shown an ounce of subtlety, I'm not going to give them credit for it

    I was also hoping every Wells would be secretely evil at one point or another in each season. (missed some episodes of season 3, so dunno if HR ever did anything bad.)

    Nah he's just a lovable dork.

    Unless you count him sending stories across dimensions and getting chased by Gypsy as evil.

    They hinted at him being evil early on, with him pressing a device when everyone left the room, but then it turned out to just be him recording their stories so he could capitalize on them in fiction

    He's just a goofball

    But it seems like Harry will be the Wells for next season

    Okay so I've spent the last week catching up on the last few episodes of all the Arrowverse shows; just watched the Arrow finale to close out the 'verse for the season.

    Spoilers for all the shows
    Guys, I don't believe that you just got rid of the main character on The Flash anymore than I believe that you just got rid of everyone but the main character on Arrow. Really now.

    Slade! I try to avoid casting stuff so that was a big surprise. And he's not crazy anymore!

    Flash: so, are we meant to think that Savitar was playing them the whole time and only went to STAR Labs to explode the Philosopher's Stone? I found myself kind of wanting him to be legit remorseful even if that development would have been a bit too quick.

    Also, I can't believe I didn't see the solution to Iris' death coming, but I didn't. And we even saw the tech again in the last episode!

    Supergirl: Between the finale title and "stronger together" (not even counting all the other stuff during the season) this show is pretty upfront about its commentary. Which I honestly love.

    So the climaxes on this season of the Arrowverse were definitely the story of Returning Guest Stars, huh? Arrow brought back Slade, Nyssa, Malcolm (who's barely appeared on Arrow itself this season), Captain Boomerang and Moira. Not even to mention Samantha, William, and Black Siren. Supergirl brought back Cat and Clark. And Miss Martian. The Flash had Jay and SpeedForceMom. Plus Lyla and Cold and I guess King Shark last week.

    So just watched Amell do his Celebrity Ninja run. Overall did well, but I was a little disappointed to see that they shortened and made the course a lot easier for the celebs, even after giving them multiple attempts on obstacles. But to his credit he one shot everything, then went and did the salmon ladder (which wasn't changed) for good measure.

    Did you watch all of Legends of Tomorow ?

    I did! I mainly didn't mention that since it ended a couple months ago. I really enjoyed Season 2 and thought it was definitely an improvement over S1. I really have to give the writers props for realizing (even by the end of S1) that
    the Hawks, Savage, and to a lesser extent Rip were kind of a burden on the show. I did enjoy Rip well enough in S2, but he was gone for half the season and then a brainwashed villain for a while. And the finale seemed to indicate that he was being written out completely (though I haven't read any casting stuff).

    I really loved the last few episodes of the season in particular. I loved that they took the whole contrivance of Thawne still existing and turned it into his entire storyline, culminating in a whole bunch of Thawne's being destroyed. I love the bit where they drop Malcolm, Darhk, and Cold back at the proper points in the timeline and wipe their memories. Sara knowing that Darhk will eventually kill Laurel but then die himself.

    And the last exchange between Mick and Cold (most of which I'd forgotten until looking it up) might be one of my favorite scenes in the series:

    Mick: This is where Thawne recruited you for the Legion. I'm gonna wipe your memory and put you on the right path.
    Snart: You mean the path where I join up with some Brit twit and die trying to save the world.
    Mick: No. You die trying to save your friends.
    Snart: Still a death sentence.
    Mick: You know what your punishment is, Leonard? You end up being a better man, and so do I.
    Snart: "Better"? You mean "softer."
    Mick: No. I mean "better." [wipes Snart's memory]

    I am angry that annoying smug bad guy gets to kill himself while still being smug. Smug badguys should only be defeated in a way where they get to see how totally they failed. I god damn hate smug bad guys. Never got to wipe that god damn smile off his face.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they don't bring him back again. This season was clearly "finishing the chapter" that started with season 1. It feels like they're gonna go in a different direction starting next season

    On the one hand
    Barrowman seems like he might have a mischievous streak and I could see him bullshitting about this. And during the episode I thought the timing of the explosion was slightly suspect, just enough for a later reveal of how he used his Magician skills to escape.

    On the other hand, I'm not really sure where there is left to go with him as a character. Or at least, I don't expect them to go anywhere else. And to be honest, while I like Barrowman I was pretty happy that Arrow was largely free of Merlin this season.

    The easy guess would be somehow Slade got them all into his underground prison/bunker.

    Oh, I have a couple of other things to mention now that Arrow has finished it's season.
    1. What the eff happened to Vigilante? Did he just completely disappear from the last part of the season? Was his only actual purpose to be a red herring for Chase?

    2. Am I the only one that feels like the writers kinda...just stopped treating Evelyn like an actual character as soon as she was revealed as a bad guy? Like she hasn't really exhibited any depth beyond "bad guy" and the apparent motivation that we were told (wanting to take Oliver down/get revenge because he's a killer) makes absolutely no sense when you consider who she's working with.

    I know they never will, but just once I would get a kick out of them revealing a masked character as somebody completely random and bizarre, just because it's totally justified by the universe they live in.
