I felt like this was kind of an anti-climactic series finale. the thing that pulled every character back together basically was someone kidnapping William but then it was solved really quickly.

the whole time as every character who died suddenly was alive made me real mad bc Laurel wasn't one of them but then E2 Laurel addressed that issue with Quentin which was such a great scene and Katie made me cry again in the blink of an eye:bawl: but I thought since multiple versions can exist we could have two Laurels, I mean, for God's sake, the more the merrier, there could never be enough. but it was a sweet explanation nevertheless.

the funeral was interesting with some characters reuniting.like E1 Tommy and E2 Laurel, and he said he was married to Laurel:thud: I've never been a big Merlance fan cause O/L owns me but Tommy did always treat Laurel as she'd deserve it and I'm glad that she was happy with him.

though I was annoyed by the show infinite times especially after Laurel was killed off I still am grateful for all that we got with her bc even though she never had enough screentime she still shined more in those short scenes than any of the cast and that's the tea

It was a decent ending i just wish we had more scenes w8th Oliver as himself not a memory of it.

I dont know if i say it was a good final though.

I do like bits and pieces of it i hope John gets to be the green lantern

I’ve seen better series finales.

I thought they did well, but I do agree some bits were meh & could've been done better. I get why Oliver couldn't bring back E1 Laurel & actually thought it showed some respect to her. Would've been nice to have the two though. I've certainly seen better series finals though

I loved Laurel & Quentin's scene where she doesn't know why she's around & not E1 & he still loves her :love:

that was such an emotional scene:nod:

that was sweet tbh i wouldnt mind a new version of her be E2 laurel but have some memories of OG laurel would of been nice kind of what they did in the new show with mia how she has 2 lives kind of

^ now that could've been interesting :nod:

yes that's true I mean, the more Laurel the better

Cause she will have a better conenction with the rest

Yes :nod: Plus she also wouldn't feel so lost being there

Maybe its better this way in a way as it allows her to happily go in the future as she has no connections otherwise

I finally saw this.. it was okay but I've seen better finales..
The cheesy Olicity end though :rolleyes:
