I'm very conflicted on this episode. One thing though I think we can all agree is that this is the "worst" of the 3 finales, because for all the criticism Rebels has earned, the first 2 finales are dynamite.
POSITIVES
-Hera is an absolute boss and steals this episode. She jumped up a level in the Star Wars character

Who said it was a criticism? A show being overrated isn't its own fault.

Don't forget "frequent kidnapping target"

Turning Savage into the "muscle" worked really well

It doesn't come to Netflix unfortunately. I don't think it's streaming anywhere, at least not the main "bundlers."

Really solid episode that's just a bit hampered by the fact that I don't care about Ezra and what he's learned and all that. Him in the desert was pretty good but I shouldn't feel disappointed when the show cuts to his reunion back with the crew and his "I learned stuff" speech.

Witwer really was phenomenal with him (also great with the Mortis Arc and fit better as Palpatine than Curry). One of the best lines from TCW is Maul's "So you're telling me I can find Jabba…at Jabba's Palace?"

It's inconsistent (some shots tonight were meh) but they've done their most gorgeous shots this season, with the ones you mentioned, Sabine's fight on the ice and a couple other shots this episode.

I also like the idea of there being no specificity to it. Maul just craves *some* sort of relevance, and we know (and Filoni is really cognizant of this) that Sith are obsessed with self and material being, so there isn't afterlife like there is for Jedi. Once you die, that's it.

Arrow isn't hot garbage (though Season 3 was) but there's an important point here and it's one I've made similarly before in these parts: the high grades for shows post-peak like New Girl, Arrow, etc demean how great the show in question was at its height. On the other hand, the grades for The 100 are a bummer to see

I just started Hannibal and didn't even notice. Guess I can't make fun of the whole "How do glasses prevent you from noticing Clark is Superman" thing now.

For me, "Fast Enough" is like a C- episode because I found the twist so easy to predict and was just sitting there waiting for it. YMMV.

I really like Cavanagh and Letscher but the buildup with Slade made him the best. That actually meant something versus just kind of being a Big Bad (which is fun, Arrow just went above with the background)

Wait, they pulled a Wally West?? (I haven't watched yet)

Are we talking live action? I personally think Arrow 2 is infinitely better than Flash 1 and also prefer Arrow 1 and maybe Legends 2 but animation will blow the live action out of the water.

Well, early Pokemon is pretty good. Current Pokemon is pretty bad (or at least it was last I checked, I don't even think it's on Cartoon Network anymore)

Definitely Juan Pablo, as mentioned before me

He had a great girl on Bachelor in Paradise but he wasn't gonna pass up being The Bachelor

I have issues with it and find it overrated but parts of it are great.

Eh, I don't know. Bojack gets similar sympathy and he's a cartoon horse.
