There's still plenty of surprises in store, so much so that the series finale will undoubtedly be labeled with the much maligned “fanservice” moniker. We’ve seen the gang back together in some of the previews, but those who worry about promotional videos showing too much footage shouldn’t fret.
In fact, a lot of old favorites come to play in this final episode. We’ll see key players from Kelly’s “day job” come into sharp focus in the finale as well. Kelly and Alex’s (Chyler Leigh) wedding has been well highlighted through all of the promos, so it doesn’t feel too spoilery to reveal that their couch moment from Tesfai’s episode will play a key role in their vows. The groundwork from “Blind Spots” - also written by Tesfai, a groundbreaking moment for the Arrowverse - set the course for several strong follow ups, all culminating in the scenes and character decisions of the series finale. This last chapter really made a point to dig in its heels and not only confront the issue, but to illustrate a way forward while constantly reiterating that the work is never done. The smartest thing this last season did was consciously choose to face that head on through Azie Tesfai’s incredible (and regrettably short) run as Guardian. Be that as it may, the series doesnt end with Adam joining the crime organization, instead Eugene - the little. She’s a superhero, it’s what she does, but the series has specifically stumbled with Kara’s privilege in the past, sometimes acknowledging it and then promptly moving on. Adams life take a twisted turn in the season finale of Your Honor Credit: Showtime. Season 6 has spent a lot of time acknowledging Supergirl’s “savior” issues. It’s about hope, so it’s fitting that the finale wraps up in a way that wants to ensure that said hope will live on now that we’ll be without our annual dose of Super Friends. Supergirl has never been a series about power.
It’s meant to close the story in a way that keeps the soul of the House of El driving on in its viewers. Kara Danvers’ (Melissa Benoist) and the rest of the Super Friends’ ending isn’t meant to be one last “fight the dragon” moment. This is a superhero show where action plays a key role, but I’d argue that every decision made so far as the battles are concerned feels earned. If there’s any real complaint about the end of the series, it’s that the action is very contained to part one, and that the ultimate climax of the primary conflict is more of a whisper than a bang.
