I'm glad the Legion got their happy ending, got to go home, and we got to see Brainiac-5 (why am I not surprised Ben Diskin ended up voicing him?), although I guess we'll have to keep speculating what it is Conner does that inspires the Legion.
It kind of amazes me how Batman had no dialogue this season. Like, not to say the season needed it, but I kind of miss hearing Bruce Greenwood...then again, we didn't get any dialogue for Wonder Woman or Green Arrow.
Black Canary talking about building Sanctuary was a big "oh no" moment for me. Like, with the emphasis on proper mental health and involvement we've gotten this season I can't imagine they would execute Sanctuary the same way the comics did, but it was such a disaster in the comics that I'm not sure what to expect from the show.
The post-credit scene was a pretty big cliffhanger to leave off on...as Black Mary and Kara Zor-El as Darkseid's latest Furies. Yes, that's right, a whole season of Kryptonian/Phantom Zone buildup, we finally have Kara as an evil Supergirl. I'm actually kind of curious what was the thought process behind taking two very similar female heroes and then emphasizing or debuting them on the show with their more villainous incarnations. Did they just think there was a good story there? Corruption of the innocent? Good girls going bad is hot? Either way having them paired together with Barda at the end makes me think we might see a ful-on Fury rebellion when they and Barda inevitably turn to good, although knowing this show that could take a full season or two to get too.
I did find it kind of funny that Mary's villain costume brought back her skirt. Like, what, it's okay for a villain to dress less conservatively compared to a hero? Honestly I think it's a better design than what we saw of her Shazam form, which is not something I expected to say. Also Supergirl has both a skirt and pants so people can have their cake and eat it too, although I wonder what her full heroic Supergirl costume might look like.
