The Wanderer

Me:

I GIVE UP!!!!!! I AM SO DONE WITH THIS SHOW!!!! They have been dragging and recycling the same storyline from season 1 for 3 years now. Even their big bad of the season is still the same mud sludge turned tar pit from season 1. How is it possible that a room full of writers cannot come up with anything else for 3 fucking years ?!?!?!? Season 1 was fine with monster of the week because it was still early and the show was trying to find its footing but watching them do the same shit again and again and again is just mind numbingly boring. At this point I rather anyone snaps Hope's neck and dump her in the Malivore pit just so that we'd be rid of the damn thing and get a new villain.

Do the writers forget that the show is set in Vampire Diaries/The Originals Universe?? The show doesn't need to be same as its predecessors but it does have to follow the rules set by them. How the fuck are they hopping to Prison World every few episodes like it's their next door 7-Eleven!?!? Don't they need a powerful celestial event for that?Also Bonnie is probably bone dry by now. Even the alpha challenge between Jed and Finch was such a joke. A pack derives its strength for its alpha. The stronger the alpha, the stronger the pack. That's why an alpha challenge is strength based. In the Originals Haley and Jackson had to get married in order for his pack to inherit Haley's strength in order to protect Hope. The fact that they reduced it to a stupid pool challenge is rage inducing. You can be bad at pool and still be an alpha as long as you are strong enough to protect the pack. If anyone deserves to be an alpha its Hope since she is actually very strong.

The only good thing in 3x14 was the interaction between Hope, Lizzie and Josie. You couldn't pay me to watch the rest of the episode if it was separate. I was honestly fast forwarding through those. The sad thing is that they have really great actors who have given impeccable performances but the writers and showrunners are just too dumb to utilize them fully. They keep abandoning interesting storylines for stupid ones. How about Josie's dark side or the Gemini curse or Hope's tribrid transition or MG being a ripper. They have so many compelling plotlines but they are still chasing the mud sludge. There are like 2 more episodes left in the season I think and I dont care. I am not continuing this show anymore. I know its renewed for season 4 and I can bet that villain will still be Malivore. I will genuinely be surprised if they get renewed for season 5.

And to all the people whining about lack of Sara, may be you forgot that this is an ensemble cast. Which means that there are storylines outside the lead character. Legends is the only show in Arrowverse who knows how to properly use its ensemble cast. If you want to watch a show which only focuses on the storyline for its lead inspite of having a huge cast then go watch the shit show that is the Flash or Supergirl. The thing that makes Legends so amazing is that it doesn't take its cast for granted, unlike Flash which failed to provide a proper storyline for Cisco for 7 years to the point that the actor is now leaving the show. I am not even gonna go down the rabbit hole that is Supergirl plot.

The Show: You can't walk away from me. You hate me too much.

Me: I do hate you. I just love me more.

So I saw the news of Kelly become the Guardian a few days back and at first I was happy for like half a second and then it just filled me with rage. The fact that the showrunners decided to do this in the final season which is already shorter than their regular seasons, the season which will already be 12 episodes in when she will get introduced as the Guardian, the fact that she has been part of the show since FUCKING SEASON 4 and just been used as basically prop and never given any relevant storyline outside of being Alex's girlfriend..... all of these just makes you realise just how much the CW and the showrunners doesn't respect their cast or the characters. They could have introduced this in season 5 when Azie Tesfai became series regular and organically developed her transition into Guardian throughout the season into season 6. I actually had to go on YouTube and search "Kelly fight scene Supergirl" because I couldn't remember ever seeing Kelly in a proper fight that would hint that she was transitioning into Guardian. But even as I am writing this I am realizing that I am expecting way too much from this show. The showrunners have never even respected their lead why the hell would they care about a side character.

So is it just me or is the character of Spooner kinda unlikable? Her and Zari 1.0 have some similarities in terms of introduction like lose of a loved one, looking out for only herself and full of anger so I went back to season 3 and rewatched episodes 303 to 3011 to see if Zari was hard to like because now she (both Zari 1.0 and 2.0) is one of my favourite characters. I realized that it had a lot to do with Tala Ash's impeccable acting. Even though the charecter put on a tough exterior, Tala brought a softness and vulnerability to the character which made us fall in love with her. Spooner on the other hand feels... I dont know the right word for it but... over the top maybe??? And not in a good way. Charlie had a big loud personality but it never felt over done. It was just the right amount of cockiness and over confidence coupled with great acting. But Spooner just doesn't sit right. I think it has a lot to do with Lisseth Chavez's acting which also feels a bit over done.
