As season finales go, I was all aboard... until they killed Donna Troy. As far as dramatic beats go, a death felt necessary, but Donna? It felt unearned. Maybe they wanna bring in Cassie Sandsmark as her replacement... maybe she's resurrected like her comic counterpart... but as far as her death, it felt jarring. Everything else was top form: action, drama, emotion... but all that immersion was lost when, in less than a minute, a founding member of the Titans gets killed by a falling fairground ride... after the showdown with Deathstroke, after the face off with Conner, a falling hunk of metal. Boo!
