To be fair, the show has ditched some of the worst parts of the first season. So no more Hawk People or Vandal Savage. Now they just need to bring Captain Cold back into the mix, and it can be a goofy fun show about B and C list superpowered people traveling through time.

On the other hand, I'm kind of ambivalent about Damien Dahrk and the Reverse Flash with the newish actor. Well, he's not new, but you know what I mean, he's not Harry.

And it was bit of slog to clean out my DVR to finish the last season of Arrow, but that was mostly caused by Olicity dragging the show down.

Spoilers for the end of season 1:

Snart sacrificed himself by sticking him face in some sort of temporal bomb so he could go star in that Prison Break revival Fox is doing this year save Mick, Ray and the rest of the team and kill all the Time Masters in a single blow. He's still "alive" in the past, but his death is a Fixed Point now or something. That said, Wentworth Miller signed the same special contract that John Barrowman has that allows him to pop up on Legends/Flash/Arrow/Supergirl(?) whenever he's needed without having to factor in guest pay, so we have definitely not seen the last of Captain Cold.

As for the Hawks, eh they kind of just hosed off to go be boring together after the team triple-deluxe killed Vandal Savage. Doubtful they'll be back. They're being swapped out for Citizen Steel and Vixen...'s grandmother, both of whom were introduced in tonight's episode
.


Which is kind of a shame because I thought Hawkgirl was perfectly fine... when she was as far divorced from the Hawkman/Vandal Savage/reincarnation bullshit plot as possible. But apparently it was always the show's intention to have a revolving cast between seasons. Basically don't get overly attached to anyone who isn't Brandon Routh and/or Victor Garber.


E: Seriously, you probably should watch at least the last 4 episodes of the season. The final arc is really good and it actually manages to salvage Savage into a halfway decent Arrowverse villain.

I really enjoyed that and two of the best villains the CW-verse has had being on one show is also great. I'd be super happy if the show was just "Thawne and Darhk gently caress up time" with our sorry looking lot of hopefuls here chasing after them and fixing it.

Basically he's a former prominent member of the League of Assassins but left because he's too evil for them, uses some kind of sorcery and he believes that humanity has hosed itself over too hard so the only correct solution is to kill everyone except himself and a few hundred other people sealed in a vault.

Well he didn't leave because he was too evil, he left because he got passed over to be the next Ra's and was marked for death because of it, so he took a bunch of mooks and some Lazarus Pit water and formed his own thing.

That was sooooo so so bad. Sooo bad. And it was written by someone in a room full of other people, then a bunch more people read and re-read it and they all decided that was the best string of words to express what needed to be expressed. At least a dozen people had to see it before it got to Routh and nobody piped up with "hey this is the single dumbest thing ever committed to paper, just fyi." :psyduck:

I love you word replacer. I want more plots like when Otto Octavius was kissing on Aunt May. Only Sarah Lance, Time Lesbian can thwart these Time Casanovas from siring Per Degaton (no relation), future Hitler.
