To be fair, I thought this finale worked for what it was. If this is a competition, The Originals won, but TVD didn't seem interested in setting up s6 in this at all. (Maybe that thing Jasmine Guy was talking about? The ominous coven the twins belong to?)

She never was supernatural so she didn't go to the other side and had no place to actually make it back from.

That was a cliffhanger?

It was obvious Damon wasn't going to return from the other side fairly early on, but I'm still kind of surprised they actually did it.

I liked the first season of Originals a lot, but a lot of people didn't, so I'll just make a pros and cons list:

Would've enjoyed him more as a supporting villain in the vein of Alastair or the Horsemen of Apocalypse. The actor was absolutely brilliant in the role and the dick jokes will never not be funny, but his story resulted in this show's worst season finale and the Leviathans, supposedly the most powerful beings in the

THE RISE OF DICK

The only canonically queer characters I remember are Charlie - who's portrayed reasonably well, the fans at the Supernatural convention (whose queerness was basícally a joke) and that lesbian psychic girl from All Hell Breaks Loose who was killed off immediately.

Being a straight guy makes you an authority on the subject somehow?

They could have even done interesting things with the love potion. Give more of an idea who Becky is as a person and try to make sense of why would anyone do so disturbing. Have her acknowledge just how disturbing it is. But nope! Crazy Becky sure is crazy.

Honestly I don't even remember if it was good, just that it featured killer clowns. No matter how you explain it, if your show isn't called American Horror Story, featuring killer clowns multiple times ain't okay in my book.

Part of Bad Boys' charm was how much it successfully imitated the first two seasons without being a rip-off or a bad retcon, so it makes sense people would think that was an older episode.

I loved the version of it they hinted at in Meta Fiction, but this episode kind of negated that. The war worked for me as an entertaining sequence of events, but I didn't really relate to it either - but when compared to how tired Crowley and the whole tablet thing had become last season, it still works for me more.

The only B/R-L episode this season I'm not sure about (and I liked it anyway) was Holy Terror. It wasn't handled perfectly, but still worked because of the course it set for the rest of the season - I don't think they were responsible for that though.

Well, she is a kid who has way more power than she knows how to handle, so whether it was intentional or not, I'd say it worked.

I wrote a half of a really long post where I tried to explain why I consider this season superior to 7 and 8, but ultimately it doesn't matter. Maybe it's because this is the first season I watched in real time instead of bingewatching over the holidays, but I didn't hate any individual episodes (Bloodlines doesn't

Nosedive in writing quality? Are we watching the same show? I thought this season was a noticeable improvement over the last two and even if you don't share the enthusiasm, I don't see how has the show gotten worse.

I don't get how but I liked all the Buckner/Ross-Lemming episodes this season. They got a lot better inbetween seasons, I'd say. Thompson and Beren's episodes tend to be great, Klein and the Charmelo/Snyder episodes tend to be the worst (I loved Dog Dean Afternoon, but that was more despite their script than because

I think this finale really did work 100%. The emotional work was sublime.

If so, we're in it together.
