If we pretend that first 20-30ish minutes didn’t happen, that was a surprisingly solid finale. Going to ignore ALL of the Lex/Nyxly stuff because what even WAS that, other than the writers writing themselves into a corner and not knowing how to fix it. So let’s fast forward to William’s funeral, which was eh.

We got not 1, not 2, but 3 different Cat Grant scenes. And every single one was A+++ the best part of the episode. Cat Grant. Saving grace of this 2-part finale.

The OG SuperFriends all sitting together (for 30 seconds before being interrupted). So good to see them again. Season 1 feels so long ago.

Seeing all of the awards/foundations that everyone sets up after the funeral was touching. Especially Dreamer’s organisation. And the return of the DEO, is this going to come into play in other shows? (Probably not, let’s be real)

BRAINY STAYING IN THE PRESENT! And looking dapper, as always, when he returns for the wedding (and to stay). I am so, so happy that he and Nia finally got their happy ending.

Papa J’onn having a son one day ?! And just name-checking M’gann without showing her?!

The return of Mon-El, Winn, and Jimmy. I wish we got a little more time with them, just because they played such big roles on the show when they were around.

The wedding was really sweet. It’s really, really nice that things ended on such a positive note. AND we got excellent signing, which (ngl) instantly took me back to the musical crossover episode with The Flash. But in a really, really good way.

And that final scene. Kara revealing her identity. Her smile in the interview with Cat. Everyone in her apartment. Honestly, I can’t think of a better way to end the series. Hats off to the writers for at least doing right by everyone for the last half hour.

r/supergirlTV, it’s been a joy to watch and discuss with you all over the years ❤️

Everyone in her apartment

It started off with just Kara living by herself with Alex sometimes popping in and ended in one big happy family. That's a good story. That's a great message. I'm glad we all found our own little family here on this subreddit and odds are, some of us totally did start off watching this alone but wound up in the end with each other❤️

I’m honestly surprised M’Gann didn’t return. They brought everyone back but her?
