I mean the show's treated them like crap pretty consistently overall for awhile now. Flash is probably the most guilty of this

The problem is that the way that it comes across is "the one female full-time member of the team who has powers, is the one that cannot use them because they'll make her crazy and evil."
No they just say that "they'll make her crazy/evil" and leave it at that. Now in the comics, Caitlin Snow's powers and why they can be dangerous IS explained, and it makes her more sympathetic in a way (and no it has nothing to do with going crazy).
I hate that they might be going with the "evil KF" thing. First of all, it totally craps all over Barry's big moment in the actual KF episode. And two, this whole storyline has cliché and problematic from the beginning.
True, so true. More subtle (or not so subtle perhaps) pseudo-flirting and suggestive lip-biting please.
I'd love to see Matt Bomer on the show at some point. He seems to be fond of Superman (he's played him in commercials and voiced him in an animated movie after all).
The problem is that she came across as a gigantic self-righteous hypocrite inthat episode (and she kind of has throughout this season honestly). And once again, other people give her advice, and she takes the exact OPPOSITE route of what said advice seemed to convey (like she did when Superman gave her romance advice…
Except that, he wasn't the problem here. In other episodes, sure. But not here.
I've had issues with Mon-el before, but I REALLY don't see why HE'S the problem with this episode in particular. Everything that happens here is stuff that people either already suspected would happen, or that has been building up all season.
Hey remember when Battleground was supposed to be KO and Sami's "final battle?" And how big a deal they made out of that.
Thrawn did, really well overall here. Staring down a god-like being and just shooting it down, badass. As for the "weird force stuff," I think that we'll be getting more of that in the next movie (if comments from Rian Johnson and other's are to be believed).
Claire still has her thing with Luke Cage (even if he's "indisposed" at the moment). So it'd have been weird for her to just hook up with Danny here. Also she doesn't need to have a romantic connection to ALL THREE of the male Defenders either.
Diamondback didn't even fit the themes and ideas that the show was going for, nor the tone. He felt REALLY out of place, and not nearly as interesting as any of the other villains. And no, trying to crowbar in a "personal history" with Luke at the last minute didn't save it either.
I just don't like that they retconned her to be a member of The Hand. That feels, unconvincing. Also her henchman were a lot more competent in Daredevil than they are here, A LOT!!
I doesn't even compare to the sex scene in Luke Cage.
Danny: "No, Vow of chas…" (Sees Colleen giving him the "do me" eyes). "Oh to heck with it, I'm going in."
See I found the whole thing unconvincing from beginning to end. The interrogation, Oliver "breaking," Evelyn still being an idiot, etc.
I'm pretty sure that Oliver is conning Chase. He doesn't really believe it, he's just pretending to for now. At least that's what it logically be.
It REALLY feels like they didn't know where to go with Joy's character though. And by the end, it's just a mess with her.
I'm still annoyed that they retconned Madame Gao as being affiliated with the Hand for, IDK she's Asian or something?
