Mon-El was given a half-assed goodbye with Kara given that it was his last episode ever. There was no emotional heft and majority of his storyline for the season now makes no sense. Why did he return with a wife if he was meant to divorce her and return to the future single? Why play up his feelings for Kara only for them to not amount to anything? I don't get this at all. How come he didn't say goodbye to the DEO?
What's with time travel on the show? First they needed to go back 13,000 years and sleep for 12,000 years to get to the present time. There was no way Mon-El could contact Kara. They also needed to fix their ship to travel. Then Brainy figures out a way to return without sleeping. Then Mon-El needs a beacon to contact them (a beacon couldn't have been used from the future to send a message to Kara when she was mourning?). The beacon works even when it's broken. Then we learn that all you need to time travel is a Legion ring and apparently, can be used to send a message to Mon-El in case Kara needs him. So why did Mon-El need a beacon when he had a ring? Why did he need to send a message at all when he could have traveled with his ring? This is ridiculous.
Also, why did Sam dream of Alura in the premiere? It was never addressed and she wasn't involved in creating the Worldkillers.
Brainy doesn't belong in the past. How can he come back to get help from Mon-El and Winn, essentially forcing them to leave their times while he stays back in safety? Wouldn't it be better for him and Winn to work together to fix the problem? No other heroes leave others in danger to keep themselves safe.
The worldkiller storyine dragged. Two worldkillers were killed easily only to be replaced by random witches we weren't invested in. Sam becomes human despite being from Krypton.
The only good storyline this season was that between J'onn and his father. Two great actors elevated the script.
It was a bad end to a boring season and I won't be watching it next season.
