This reminds me, there is a stark difference between Wells Eobard and Eobard Eobard, the former (even when he isn't pretending to be Wells) is so serious while the latter is a sarcastic dude who is always smiling.That hasn't stopped him in the past

The Wells version was stuck for 15 years in a time he didn't want to be in and had to spend some of that mentoring his mortal nemesis, though, so it kind of makes sense why he'd be less chipper a fellow.
Yeah, but non-Wells version was apparently post those 15 years too.

One had the Flash who was not his equal in terms of speed, but was no slouch so he was a direct counter who worked with some of the smartest people, they would and did find a way to stop him and and he was also kinda depowered. He had no choice but to always be on guard.
The other has to deal with the legends, known idiots without any weapons to take him down other then 1 gun and that gun was developed by Eobard himself. He had no rival in terms of speed and smarts and was at full speed. Only time we seen him show any fear was when the black flash was after him. If I had no rival and thought everyone was below me in intelligence I would be a sarcastic and jokey dude, because who would stop me? One guy tried, and he got his heart ripped out though armor.
There was an implication that Wells-Eobard had absorbed parts of the original Eobard's personality. And fifteen years of zen mastery to boot.
Questionable. He mentioned working with Caitlin and Cisco, didn't mean he was referring to that him in the timeline. Seems like an oversight more than anything.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Wow, that's actually a good perspective on the Legends' version of Reverse Flash. I never really thought about it. He belittled them every chance he got, even putting turning them into servile lapdogs when the Legion changed reality. I like that the Legion never really considered them a major threat, just annoyances to be dealt with.

Shouldn't the reverse flash from Doomworld disappear since the spear was depowered? If the spear had no power in 1912 then they couldn't use it the first time so doomworld wouldn't exist or am I just thinking about it too much
Honestly Season 2 of Legends has been some of the better Arrowverse fun this year. People keep screaming for Arrow, and it's been...fine? But I genuinely enjoy Legends this year.io9/Gizmodo: Why Legends of Tomorrow's Second Season Was Such a Triumph

Yes. But Black Flash took down all time remnants individually.

He should be fine. All the other RF disappeared because the one that got owned by BF brought them there.
I wouldn't be surprised if that one escaped as a back up plan.

Wait, that was the season finale? Weird to end on 17 episodes.
Great episode by the way, seeing all those Zooms on screen was a nice moment, but i felt they could and should have done a lot more damage. Minor gripe though.

Lol, legends keep messing up time. Great season. I really loved the chemistry between Merlin and Dahrk.
Some minor casting news:
Arthur Darvill (Rip Hunter) is not leaving the show.
Sounds like he'll be doing his own thing, recurring around the place similar to his turn as evil Rip this year. And the effects of the finale won't be impacting the other shows.

I don't know how to feel. He was refreshing this year, but once he turned 'good' again he became kinda boring, partially because he didn't get an actual story aside from his short 'I want to be the Captain spiel'.

He did have the jumpship. Honestly was surprised human Gideon didn't get written into existence in the finale, seems like that's what they were building to.

I would not be surprised if that happened in season 3 as the "new" team member.
She doesn't have a lot of acting experience though.

It is the CW, she only has to be attractive. Plus, I thought she was fine in the episode where they fix Rip's mind.

I get a erratic heart beat when I see this woman...
That is only true when you're young, Pemberton is like 30.

That went from a "why am I watching this shit?" show in season 1, to "this is marginally better without Arthur Darvill and the Hawks" early in Season Two, to just so silly it's great once we hit the George Lucas episode and stayed enjoyable. Second half was really good.
So, I guess I'm watching season three.

She can be the team's mom then. Making sure Rory is tucked in at night and bringing him a cold beer when he gets fussy.
It was originally planned as 13 episodes, like season 1, but they had more ordered and lengthened the season.

Thank god. Hopefully he returns quickly.

Since this Thawne is dead, the next Thawne will be one who shouldn't remember any of this right? It should be the one from S2 of The Flash, correct? Or will it be a new one fresh from the future again?

I don't find her that attractive. Lots of lines on her face. Physically shes amazing.

I want cold back
Since the other Legends are currently benched until next season, I wonder if Rip will show up on the Flash to help them deal with their villain.
I want the whole Legion back
This is a great idea. Legends has some of the better hooks into the other shows. Leveraging that more often would be really cool.

As much as I hated to see RF go, I have to agree. It was very well done.
NOT THAT GUY. THESE GUYS!!
Indeed. We can still get pre season 1 Eobard.

I feel like most of the CWDC shows could do with being 13 to 17 episodes. While there were a few filler episodes in this, the season was pretty tight and consistently enjoyable, whereas The Flash is really struggling right now.
The problem is that the Flash is struggling with its story episodes just as much, Supergirl does better in its filler than on its story episodes and Arrow filler has been quite good as well. You need that filler to take a break from the main plot. Like how Arrow left the big bad aside for a couple of episodes to focus on mayor Oliver and his staff.

Yeah, I think you're right. Now that you mention it, it's weird how both SG and Flash are struggling but Arrow is finally back on track after that mess of a third and fourth season.
Savitar is just...And the whole Mon-el arc is starting to piss me off. Why is it so hard to have all three be good, it's like one/two have to suffer for the other to be great. Next season will probably see Arrow suck ass, SG being great and Flash going through yet another mediocre season.
Guggenheim apparantly just works better if he is hated. He gave us Arrow S1 and S2 on Green Lantern but it wore off.
Because writing is extremely, extremely hard, especially with the number of episodes they're expected to churn out and very few writers have 100% hit rates. How many shows do you know with perfect runs? Now take out the dramas with 13 or lower episodes and the comedies. You'll be left with zero, as far as I can think of.
Also the only two writers consistent among all the shows are Kreisberg and Berlanti, and Kreisberg is primarily Flash focused anyway and Berlanti doesn't really write, he just provides guidance. We assign quality judgements to individuals, but it's a big team process with so many moving cogs we don't see.
It's much easier for us to pinpoint flaws after the fact than actually do this shit lol. Also opinions are a thing. We're loving Legends and Arrow. If you're watching these shows as a fourteen year old girl, you're the one screaming "fuck Uncle Guggie!!!" right now.
Here is where the entire Flash budget went:
They changed it to a costume now, and it looks way better.

Lots of lines on her face... The standards of beauty for women are ridiculous.
Watched the finale. Good stuff. And the ending was just a big "Wat.".
Legends S2 was much better than the first season. Mainly because we had better villains and the show more often just embraced the sillyness. While I still enjoyed Arrow more, S2 of Legends was definitly a step in the right direction. I hope S3 will continue this.
