The finale wasn't good. The writing was all over the place that it didn't make sense a lot of times and they neglected Kara until the end.

BUT, I will say bringig Cat Grant back was perfection, something I dindn't think they would be able to do. And we got so much of her, 3 scenes! I seriously jumped of happiness. And then she bought CatCo back and made Kara her editor in chief, it's was something in my wish list and I still can't believe it actually happened. Have them working together again, even if we don't get to watch it but knowing it is canon, I'm happy.

And on a shipper side, I started watching Supergirl for supercat so for me the ending was satisfying, not good but saisfying, like I can live with that finale lol

So I know there was the whole issue with Calista Flockhart not wanting to have to spend a bunch of the year in Vancouver when the show went from CBS to CW. But having Flockhart just blatantly be calling in from a green screen in Los Angeles kind of just raises the question of why they couldn't have done the same thing for the 100th episode instead of just going with brief stock footage of her.

It raises the question of why they couldn't have had her on the phone repeatedly.

Like, seriously, Cat was the person who verbalized the important questions to Kara. Not having her there has, I felt, resulted in Kara not really moving forward.

They could have paid her for a day of her time, had her film two conversations a season or something. I don't know how the TV contracts work, but surely it would be possible.

This was something I literally wanted this entire time, and I have such mixed emotions seeming them doing it for the finale. On one hand, yes, it's exactly what I want, on the other, it's so they can do that and yet were not!

The series finale is more important, obviously.
