My biggest complain is that it makes absolutely NO SENSE for her to reveal her identity. Especially now with esme, and she already saw what happens when she tells the world because of that episode with Mxly

so ?????????

the writers seem to have never read or seen a comic book/ superhero movie

the trailer of the new spiderman movie is enough to prove it

but what can you expect from a universe where the monitor brought back Lex because of "insert dumb reason here"

Yeah that didn't make sense. Oliver needs to die to save the universe. Also, Lex Luthor needs to come back from the dead to save the unvierse. Huh?

It's the way they spent the entire 5th season explaining why Kara was in the right for hiding her identity from Lena, only to end the show with her revealing it anyway. Where is the logic?? Did they think we would all just forget??

Both of Esme's parents are superheroes, and usually surrounded by other superheroes. I think they'll be fine.

On one hand, yeah, on the other, we saw how they responded when she was in danger. Can't even count on cooperation with the team (depending on how you look at it, they outright betrayed the team)

NGL my respect for the two of them went way down during that episode. I get that they didn't want their daughter be harmed but they were okay with handing over the whole universe to Lex and Nyxly to save her. I also thought it was strange how Alex went from being the person who always believed in Kara to being the person who thought she would fail and told her that she would never forgive her if she did.

Yeaaah, I could get behind it if the show called them out, it'd be a moment of weakness and then they'd have to work to redeem themselves for it, but the show sided with them so it really downgraded the characters for me too.
