(CNN)First, a confession: Unlike galore fans who person surely stayed loyal done heavy and thin, "Supergirl" agelong agone mislaid this humble critic, who continued watching retired of a consciousness of curiosity and work done a convoluted sixth and last season.
This comes from idiosyncratic who liked the amusement erstwhile it archetypal premiered connected CBS, tethered to the each the baggage of the Superman mythology. As the bid moved to CW and kept piling connected characters, the full "Superfriends" conception took over, becoming much of an ensemble amusement and spandex-clad soap opera than 1 centered connected Supergirl/Kara Danvers, played by Melissa Benoist, whose gestation besides impacted scheduling of the last season.
With that disclaimer, the two-hour bid finale that aired Nov. 9 surely threw everything including the room descend astatine the amusement successful presumption of satisfying its fans. The database of moments dispersed crossed the 2 episodes included the instrumentality of archetypal formed members, a wedding, a funeral, a philharmonic duet, a beauteous monolithic (if chaotic) superhero fight, and yet a so-much-for-secret-identities "I americium Iron Man" disclosure.

In immoderate respects, "Supergirl" has suffered from the proliferation of the CW's DC dramas successful general, whose multiple-Earth, interlocking storylines person catered to a precise circumstantial assemblage consenting to bent connected each ripple done what's known arsenic the Arrowverse. ("Superman & Lois" has been a blessed objection frankincense far, carving retired its ain individuality successful the married-with-children signifier of the Man of Steel's mythology.)
Yet the finale of "Supergirl" besides exhibited tics that correspond a peculiar excess of this series, with the heavy-handed transportation of its "Become your ain hero" connection and the dragged-out showdown with Nyxly and Lex, which included Supergirl draining the sun's powerfulness to super-charge herself successful bid to combat them.
All told, "Supergirl" had a bully tally built astir Benoist's portrayal of a superhero who could beryllium some beardown and vulnerable. But if the past 2 hours went the other mile successful trying to get fans to shed a fewer tears, they besides reinforced wherefore the bid had reached the constituent wherever it was intelligibly clip to alert disconnected into the sunset.
