Mxy in the Middle

Another episode making me feel like the people responsible for the show didn't know it'll be the final season while writing it. It's just filler after filler. Ridiculous plots and character development that should've happened seasons ago. What is going on?

Supergirl feels like a guest star in her own show. She's reacting to other characters' storylines while not having her own. In the final season of the show. Mxy had more character development in one episode than Kara's had throughout the entire season so far. No wonder Melissa pretty much gave up on posting about the show and promoting it. Yes, it's great that other characters like Nia and Kelly are getting the spotlight but it shouldn't be happening at the expense of the protagonist.

This final season shows how off-tune TPTB are with the audience. Or they just simply don't care. Because if they cared, they'd know that the relationships between the core characters on the show are the element of the show that is loved the most by the majority of the audience. Not the villains. Not the superpowered fights with bad cgi. They should've focused on that and not whatever it is they're doing.

And the fact that the last time Lena and Kara, the relationship on the show that, objectively, brings the most engagement for the series, were allowed to exchange words on screen was in 6x01 just speaks for itself. How did we go from s5 being all about this big fallout of their relationship to the show acting like they aren't each other's persons and doing everything in their power to separate them? How is it that when they were fighting with each other they interacted more than they do now that they are back to being friends, when Lena finally knows everything?

It is really sad to think that this is the farewell the fans, the characters and the cast were served with by the showrunners. So sad.
