Good or bad, I always watched it with my mom. She passed away in 2008, so she never got to see the final season. But we would never miss an episode. Tom Welling wanted to be Superman in that Supergirl series.

[@randallflagg3700]

@@Seamonkey2407 - Tom Welling actually turned down playing Superman in *Supergirl* ... he has stated that he really didn't want to see himself suiting up as Superman. He only accepted to play in the *Crisis* crossover, because there would be no suit (hey at least we know Mr Welling is a man of his word, even to the point of stubbornness... so if you're thinking of dating him, put that in the + side) he would play Clark Kent, not "Superman", as on Smallville's Earth-167 , Clark has given up on his powers, because... he has kids now? And it's more valuable? It's kinda confusing, and it's a shame that canonically, Smallville's Supes has given up after 10 seasons spent earning the right to be called a hero. I still enjoyed that sequence, but it's kind of a kick in the nuts to all the fans who have invested 10 years in that show (I'm part of the "growing from a kid to a teen to a young adult alongside Clark") that next time he pops up in live action, it's to announce that after a couple years as Superman he found a way to remove his powers...

My theory about the Gotham finale is that the plan was a 2 hour episode but they were only allowed 1 hour and had to slash it up. It seemed like so much was missing.

[@tokyodeathghoul2313]

Actually the opposite is true. Part way through production of the final season, Fox gave them an additional 3 episodes, one of them being Jim and Lee's wedding. The problem comes from the creators wanting to give the fans closure to the characters they have grown invested in, and in trying to give the fans a finale that was able to make them as content and happy as possible, as the creators genuinely cared about and appreciated the audience, they ended up trying too hard, resulting as the finale coming off as more fan service than anything. On top of that they also had many restrictions on what they were and were not allowed to do such as the many restrictions with the Joker alone and not being allowed to have the word "Batman" be said.

Smallville's finale was a real letdown. Not only did we not get Clark in the supersuit, but the promised appearance of Darkseid was just relegated to him taking over Lionel Luthor's body; complete waste of time. And as to Two and a Half Men, the worst part is that Rose held a man captive for years and didn't face any consequences for it: it was just played for laughs.

For the end of season 5 of Teen Titans (which wasn't meant to be a series finale but screw CN)... I do wish they recreated what happened in the teen titan's comic after the death of Tera.

Like, that would have been so much character growth for Slade after all he had been through with the Titans.

As a fan of all 12 seasons of Two And A Half Men the finale was bad. I was excited to see if Charlie would come back and the finale built it up like he was and then in the end it never happened. I was excited to see Charlie and Walden meet for the first time, Charlie finding out Alan still lives in the same house, Charlie and Jenny sharing a scene together would’ve been good and Charlie being proud that she’s gay, Charlie finding out Jake joined the army and moved out and Charlie finding out Walden and Alan got married and adopted Louis, all this would’ve been gold but instead it was just Chuck Lorre stroking his ego and proving that since it lasted 4 seasons without Charlie he didn’t need Charlie 🙄, I will admit there were some things I liked in the finale, Jake coming back I liked and even being able to make fun of himself was nice, also Arnold Schwarzenegger’s cameo was gold and him giving a rundown of the show was hilarious because on paper it really doesn’t make any sense unless you actually watch the show

[@leahmacdonald5122]

One of my biggest issues with Smallville was taking lesser known characters from the comics and gave them names of better known characters. For example; "Deathstroke". The character was more akin to Wade Eiling aka The General but because Deathstroke is a bigger name, they just called him that. The same with Darkseid. While there were a few nods to Final Crisis (which there shouldn't have been), he was basically just Dominus.

[@thribs]

I didn’t mind the Darkseid one since they couldn’t really do him proper with their budget. Plus the villains in the last few seasons were basically origin stories. Setting them up for when he becomes Superman proper.

[@MrParkerman6]

My biggest issue is some of the characters were horribly miscast. Like Supergirl and Black Canary. Why can they never seem to get a live action Supergirl right?

[@thecrimsondragon2379]

Here’s what I think happened with things change. I think terra is honestly a clone. And I think that random monster of the week had *something* to do with it. And I also think that slade had something to do with it. Honestly that’s really what I think happened they were trying to set a plot lines so they could get another season but it just didn’t work out.

[@ultimateslinger9857]

I think it should ended at either the Trigon Finale, or the Trouble in Tokyo movie. I’d watch that one just for the action and to see Robin and Starfire finally tie the knot

[@rionaka8835]

That's nice, but they were implying it's really her, and then in the comics based on the show they did follow it up saying it actually was her. So it seems like either way you put it, either based on the implications of the show or what comes next, it's supposed to be her.

[@tomlawal7991]

The Lex losing his memories kinda makes sense, hear me out. In the Superman mythology Lex hates Superman for no apparent reason, but what if it was instinctive because of that past relationship with Clark that we saw in Smallville. Hating Superman because his subconscious knows of the strained relationship between him and Clark but actively having no recollection leading to a deeper hatred because there’s something on the tip of his mind that he can’t put his finger on.

[@capeto08]

Unconscious*

[@andrewcozzini8259]

Having liked this comment, as it's definitely an interesting theory, I would have to argue that Lex (in the comics and other versions) does in fact have a motive for hating Superman, albeit a different one. In most versions, Lex's hatred for Superman originates from a sense of jealousy (perhaps xenophobia) directed toward Superman and/or aliens, on the whole. Lex is often an ultra humanist who believes humanity to be inherently superior to all other life forms. Of course this flies in conflict with Superman's sheer existence, who's power dwarfs even his (Lex's) many accomplishments. (See stories like "All-Star Superman"). However, all that being said I think your thoughts here make a lot of sense for this particular version. Even if it's not the usual reason, I think that would be a nice way to at least half acknowledge the 10 seasons worth of history between them, making it not entirely feel all for nothing. It would also be interesting to see more stories, wherein Lex still doesn't remember, but Clark, of course, remembers. IMO, that would be a really interesting dynamic that was sort of explored in the "Season 11" comics and hopefully in that upcoming animated series! Here's hoping! Cheers!

The thing with Teen Titans is that it wasn't supposed to be the finale, just the end of season five and the begining of season six, being this one the final season, but for some reason it got cancelled. I even remember the times when a lot of fans were sending letters to CN with the petition "save season six"

[@silverdragon3132]

The petition is still ongoing, and they cancelled it for the same reason they cancelled Young Justice, toy companies don’t want to sell superhero toys to girls, with whom the shows where more popular with.

[@0bomberjack0]

@@silverdragon3132 There's conflicting information out about the cancelation but this has to be the dumbest take on it. "we don't want that icky Girl money" is something no Company ever said. If it was more popular with Girls they would've just geared it more towards them and make money that way, Capeshit has always tried (and mostly failed) to get Girls to buy their Comics, Merch etc so they wouldn't have let a chance like this go if it were true. What was more likely the issue is that Bandai held the Rights to the TT Toys. TT was cancelled the same Year Mattel became the "master toy licensee" for CN which is kinda odd timing. This way they didn't have to get out of the Contract since no Show means dropping Sales in Toys for Bandai and no advertising a Competitors product on your exclusive Partners Network. So Mattel would have financial Interest in making sure TT is gone from CN which was likely one of the conditions for the deal.

Only yugioh series that was good is Original if you only go by manga canon and 5ds that actually had an ending where the cast moved on and found thier own way of life either by duel or something else.

[@anonnyanonymous4800]

In retrospect, as much as I like Tom Welling, they never should have cast a 24 year old as a 14 year old. It would have been way more believable to cast an actual teen who would have been willing to wear the suit. With a younger actor, we would have had more life out of the character. In later seasons, Welling was clearly running out of steam on the show. And when he returned on the CW crossover, he STILL didn’t want to wear the suit. Which doesn’t make sense. He gained so many enemies over the years that learned his identity, he even had someone travel from the future to kill him, how did he plan to protect his family without his powers?

Did you know they do psych evaluations for reality television shows? Why don’t they do it for shows like Smallville? With interviews, personal references, social media research, looking into the kid’s parents, etc. you can ensure you cast a quality child actor. You could also mandate weekly therapy sessions for the child actor as part of the contract. This way, they can manage their game and talk about their problems. There are definite ways to improve the process of casting child actors.

To be fair, the teen titans season five finale was supposed to lead into season six, which likely would have answered a lot of the unanswered questions from the series (was that Terra, who is Red X, what was that creature etc.).

So that is more so on Cartoon Network for cancelling it when they did not poor planning on the producer’s part.

[@NotUlpoadingAnything]

Part of the reason the Gotham finale was underwhelming was because the show got cancelled. It was only renewed with a short final season to wrap everything up so they had less time to work with and try to fit everything into. I think the finale would have benefited from being a two-part episode rather than just one. That way the ten year time jump wouldn't have been so jarring and everyone's endings could have been resolved more cohesively.

[@camerondodge2070]

About the ending of Teen Titians, I'm pretty sure they wrapped up the Terra mystery in one of the tie-in comics. Also, it wasn't supposed to be the end, but the network came down on them at the last minute. Kind of like another show that I love with a bad ending caused by the network: Quantum Leap. Great show, an absolute classic that I still watch every day when it comes on. The final episode though, good grief. It wasn't supposed to be the end, but rather lead into a 6th season, much like Teen Titans final episode. But then the network came along at the last minute, after everything had been filmed, and told them the show was cancelled. So the producers had to scramble and scrap the cliffhanger ending they had filmed in favor of something else What we got was a fade to black with text proclaiming that Sam never made it home. 30 years later, and many fans are still angry about that. But then, the people making the show didn't like that ending either, and were also disappointed, so in the end the lesson is don't hate and blame the creators and producers, hate the networks.

[@tylercronan5089]

When I explain this, I am 100% biased to Smallville as I was born the day Season 4 premiered and grew up with it. From the start, the writers and even Tom himself said NO TIGHTS, NO FLIGHTS for the basis of the show. It was founded on family values and the relatability of growing up feeling isolated and finding yourself, seizing your destiny, Clark's was just a little more outlined and planned than most LOL. The fact we saw him fly AND in (Brandon's) suit (albeit most scenes were digital) is a BLESSING from the writers. Tom never wanted to be in the suit which is probably why there was no establishing shot of him in it during the finale. Telling Lois his secret was really the last big moment, the only thing holding him back from becoming the greatest hero of all time. Looking back on all his trials as a way of unlocking flight was a beautiful homage to the show and its roots. Destroying Darkseid in Lionel 2's body instantly was eh, but I understand why given the villain's nature in the context of the show. I've always been iffy on Lex's return because they set him up to be 100% evil and in the most powerful position (in relation to Clark) he'd ever been up until that point and ripped it away from him. It's continued in the Season 11 comic storyline and may be touched upon in the animated sequel show Tom and Michael have been planning for years. Smallville was never about Superman, otherwise it would have been called Superman or Metropolis, it was always about Clark Kent and his journey. The finale to me is bittersweet as we have watched him grow up for a decade, all his losses and tragedies have been laid in front of our eyes, and yet he's going just beyond the horizon, just far enough out of reach for us to no longer see. It's otherwise perfect to me because of this.

The end of Smallville was one of the worst things ever made when it comes to superhero shows. It's so bad that it makes Superman IV look like a piece of art. Two and a Half Men surpass it in terms of how much the finale sucks. I get that Charlie Sheen was problematic, but after he was fired, there were plenty of times they use the character of Charlie Harper to say crap about Sheen and in turn ruin Harper character. And the final episode just dialed up to 11. There are other finales that are just bad or even badder. Grimm, Supernatural, X-Files, Game of Thrones.

plus I'd also throw in the Ending of Star Trek: Enterprise, Seinfeld, Star vs The Forces of Evil, LOST, Danny Phantom, etc.

[@TheNightmareMan]

@Veeinfuso Tom Welling was also in Cheaper by the Dozen and Cheaper by the Dozen 2.

[@KiwiWeeDee]

If you want to experience bitter disappointment and loathing watch 'Lost' or 2004's 'Battlestar Galactica' finals !!!

[@brucenatelee]

They fucked up Smallville's Clark Kent by keeping him from having the Superman identity, doing too much with things that happened after he got the suit before he did in the show. It's like a lot of adaptations are done not for the fans, but for the creators. They want to make their own version of another's story at the expense of the fans who want to see it come to life. Can we all agree that forcing Batman and Joker to be exclusive to movies kinda sucks? I mean, the only reason Arrow, Titans, and Batwoman were made and liked/tolerated is because they are the closest to Batman shows on TV. Also, the guy who played Batman in the last few seconds of Gotham was Mikhail Mudrik, who is both a rich real estate agent and expert in judo. Sure, many rich people can take a "karate/MMA class," but is interesting they actually hired one to be in the suit for 10 seconds.

At least Game of Thrones had an entire season to fall apart in. HIMYM was great until the last three minutes!

I honestly had no idea that anyone cared this much about Two And A Half Men.

[@insertmoney2189]

I think you should do a video on Heroes (2006-2010). I feel that it’s such an under appreciated show.

[@Seamonkey2407]

Heroes was great, but due to seasons 3 & 4, people felt the show started going downhill. I couldn't get into that newer season a few years ago. I don't know what happened there. I love what's his name from Chuck and Shazam, but the new heroes didn't grab my attention. Also, Chuck needs more, the way that show ended, a lot of fans wanted at least one movie to show what happened and how the characters got around it all.

[@insertmoney2189]

@@Seamonkey2407 yeah I agree the last few seasons were underwhelming but that’s like every show nowadays. Don’t get me started on heroes reborn I don’t even know what that was.

I’m a huge Superman fan & loved Smallville but that finale was painful. What makes it even worse is Tom Welling reprised his roll for an Arrowverse crossover special & we still didn’t get to see him as Supes because he’d given up the powers - no just no .

[@DarthRushy]

Nobody better mention LOST, that ending was awesome

[@anthonythanghe4755]

The creators did say from DAY ONE that this was CK show and not a Superman show. That there would be no Clark/Superman flying because “no cape, no flight” and there wasn’t going to be a suit.

[@chazarcola7639]

Hilarious that you compared President Lex Luthor to Resident Joe Biden. One has amnesia. The other has much worse.

[@megamen7353]

I mean about the Two and a half man part, i always feel sad and angry but when you actually listen to Charlie Sheen after years, i really cant blame Chuck Lorre for this drama. Charlie himself now admits that he went too far and wasnt actually healthy mentally. And you guys can say like "why didnt they help him then?" or similar things like that but they actually did. They stopped filming multiple times because Charlie Sheen was not able to work. And trust me, stopping filming costs way too high. Its not just "ok guys go home we filmthis shit 2 months later, cya" , no it doesnt work like that. There are hundreds of workers, rented electronical devices which some of them costs around 200.000$, studios etc etc its not that simple. I really wished that Charlie Sheen was healthier before but from the positive side, that rant got him out of this stupid loop. He seems to do fine rn which is way more important imo. Losing everything he got maybe shocked him to reality. But still, it would be nice to watch Charlie Sheen for 3-4 more years and then having a good finale. Sadge...

[@stefanfilipovits21]

Can confirm. It’s incredible.

[@thribs]

To rub it in more, the crisis scene had him giving up his powers. Something that goes against the very premise of the show. I imagine it doesn’t stick as Lex is supposed to do something terrible as President and he needs to stop him.

[@B-Dad]

His watch has blue kryptonite. If he took off the watch his powers would return…not instantly but quickly! Like the mechanic kryptonian we met in season 7.

[@thribs]

@@B-Dad Shouldn’t be wearing it in the first place. What happened to embracing his destiny? Lana is doing his job more than he is.

[@B-Dad]

@@thribs Sure I was just pointing out he still has his powers so he could return anytime. But I’m glad he is a dad. He can’t stay just human forever with his girls. They will have powers unless he did the same to them. But even so they can have powers and so can he.

[@kali3665]

I really hated Smallville. It was "mutant of the week" for way too long, and then it lasted forever without accomplishing a thing because they refused to let Clark grow up and adopt his destiny.

[@robertrogers074]

What you mean ? It was only mutant of the week for 1 season, the first, his destiny season really started in season 5.

[@doctorclu]

14:40 Pick pick pick. Sometimes you gotta do it for the fans, (and maybe a little more cash). Anyway, I enjoyed the Smallville portion. I agree with you there, but I did enjoy that finale. However you were right, it was it's own thing. I think they were trying to shoehorn it in the Christopher reeve movie universe, but they passed that meeting point, as you said, around season four. Thanks for the video.

[@TheMeefive]

To quote the most important line of your rant 'Who cares, they're ending the series anyway" Funny thing is that wasn't the end. Smallville was a great ride that I enjoyed for all 10 years. What I find egregious was when they brought Welling's character back for the Arrowverse Crisis and he had given up the powers to lead a normal life. At least th Smallville finale ended with him being Superman.But to bring him back just to say he gave up his powers? Sheesh, Somebody save me, cmon!

[@rxtsec1]

gotta say the montage of 2 & 1/2 men actually made the finale seem funnier

If we're counting animation, you have to put Danny Phantom on that list.

Having Danny gave up his powers this late in game was completely out of character for him.

[@randallflagg3700]

It was a cool scene, but as a Smallville fanboy I was kind of pissed that after 10 seasons of earning that Superman title, he gives his powers away because he has young kids now? What's the logic behind that? Clark only says that "they're worth more than superpowers" or something like that, but you can have both, you don't have to choose. Oh well. At least Tom Welling is a man of his word, as he only accepted that role because he wouldn't be in the suit. He was previously asked to played Superman in *"Supergirl"* season 2, but nope thanks, don't want the suit to jinx my carrier. Ultimately, Tyler Hoechlin (sp?) was a good choice, as it gave us the great *"Superman & Lois"* 'n sheit.

[@savagedarksider5934]

@@randallflagg3700 The Tom Welling Clark we see in crisis is not the same one from the main Smallville universe.

[@mikemorro140]
