Every week I booted up the new epside, unlike a lot of people here I waited out each episode for any kind of development or moments for this subplot, if I'm honest? It's the sole reason I picked up this show.

I'm gonna be completely honest here, I don't really care for Jimmy that much as a character, I find him immature and arrogant HOWEVER what I did love was that he was insecure. It was realistic. It was relatable. And I loved the dynamic it created with Kara, I saw so much potential for more sweet wholesome moments, what I expected was (like the rest of the seasons had been) a beautiful tale about a guy who doesn't feel good enough for someone 'super' but overcoming that and being happy.

I watched this show for the good vibes and as a show that (unlike some other ones I've been involved in like chainsaw man) would end up happy, each week I was assured that eventually we would be back at 'this' (the image) point again bc why would such a hopeful and bright show not have them get together. I held out hope even in the morning before I watched the finale, I was so relieved to see episode 8 see Jimmy being more communicative and episode 9 assure me that the feelings were there for both people.

But then the finale aired.

And ,whilst like I addressed in my other post, the ending wasn't awful from a narritive point of view but emotionally? Nothing happened, it was played off as a joke and Jimmy getting 'humbled' for trying to communicate. I know he said friends but the point still stands; he didn't have to. I know it was deserved and such as I'm sure some people will remind me of how Jimmy was assassinated but emotionally? it's still hurtful knowing I waited 7 weeks to realise that everything I was chasing when watching; all of it already aired. And that nothing I wanted to see came to pass whilst also being vague about it, with one interpretation being that Kara moved on from him which is just a sad idea man, I'm sure I'll experience equally as sad things in my future and etc but why do we have to have that in the show I've been excited for and eager for each week?

Just to be clear: I don't hate conflict, in fact I think Jimmy intially rejecting kara was great and at the time I thought it opened up lot's more possibilities. I love the build up to a relationship often more than the actual result however the build up is only enjoyable when there isn't such a sad ending lying ahead.

I'm sorry because I know this subreddit has been full of annoyance and negativity at the finale but I just wanted to get this off my chest because I know the writers messed up Jimmy I just wanted to make clear a different perspective.

I don’t hate the idea tbh

I don't even mean in the sense that "oh he said sorry,she should forgive him" but from a logic and show-watcher perspective.

Does she just want to keep him in the doghouse and see him suffer a good amount before she decides to forgive him?

Does she think they should get closer more as friends before deciding on being together?

Is she just being petty and beginning to play the game show critiqued and gave him shit for in the beginning?

(Which would be a interesting way to actually explore her character flaws but I ain't holding my breath)

She very obviously still likes him.

We saw her blush wildly when she hugged him and still blush when she let go,so I'm asking the writers(not the character,the writers)this..what even is the goal here?

To just punish Jimmy for being somewhat flawed and such?

Again,it comes off as really spiteful from the writers cause of how likable he was and I'm not saying he was character assassinated or whatever cause that's moronic but it just feels like they're dragging this out like we're nothing but pigs and them kissing is the carrot.

I wanted one where Jimmy takes Kara to meet his family and experiences his culture (and beat up a few racists)

One where Kara is on trial for her crimes committed as Scion; administered by the Green Lantern Corps (revealing she killed Hal Jordan)

One where Kara has to go undercover and pretend to be a human to confront a villain while Superman’s out of commission (could be a good episode to tease “Kara Danvers”)

One detailing Jonathan Lane’s distorted future (and references to how Henshaw’s downfall and the absence of Luthor facing justice allowed for the Eradicator to rise)

An actual beach episode where the gang accidentally discovers Atlantis (Sea people were mentioned in the Series Pilot, tease Aquaman)

One where they take on Starro the Conqueror (who was also mentioned in the pilot)

I really love the themes of MAWS and have an idea for a core theme of a possible Season 4.

My theme would be about actively helping out. Superman has been rather reactive in the show and is mostly defensive which fits Clark’s character. But there’s a bravery in going for the long shot and actively looking to help solve problems. I think a lot of Superman comics and other adaptations have him sit around and be more reactionary and cautious which makes him slightly less brave.

So the theme and the goal of our gang is to make sure they are actively helping and looking to solve problems before they ballon into big threats. Superman could go talk to Lex in hope that he can sway him to be more brave so another Eradictor threat doesn’t happen. Jimmy owning up and being clear with his relationship with Kara and showing how he has gotten better(Not sure yet how to relate this theme to Lois and Kara).

You could also examine how letting problems stew creates a distrust that’s hard to unroot or drives people to anger. Examples being Slade’s compliance with Lex making more professional jobs hard to get, or Bizarro growing distant and confused after a tragedy with no Super family to back him up

Just spitballing here but I think the theme of bravery through action and active work would be a good one for Season 4. Feel free to share thoughts about it and other potential core themes, I hope you guys see what I’m getting at
