"I will be kind but I will speak my mind."
Yeah scared for Connor and well the rest of mama Anna hen’s brood . Love that Connor went to McKay. I love their sibling like relationship they have going between them.
I fear that its one of the students, why because we don’t want that. So I bet we will see that Nate, Bonnie, and Frank all made it out. Which means oh gawd which one is going to bite the dust. 🙁
So scared.

I have a mixtures of thoughts and feelings but need coffee to process it!
I think there are some things I have problems with, some things I enjoyed, and other things that just bothered me.

The irony is that is an actual plot they can go with it. @Rainbow

What is it about OUAT that somehow unleashed all the trolls?First : The Showrunners and cast did not put this fandom in its place back when that shipping thing started getting out of hand and actors were getting tons of disrespectful comments and tweets from entitle fans who think they know everything up down right left and in between therefore must express what ever they want when they want no matter how rude or crude.
Second: Hope and Happy Endings and True Love, fantasy blended with reality. And this show became a beacon that if their faves can get a happy ending with that significant other then by darnit they can get this fanatical happy ending as well. (I am guilty of that but for different reasons. Neal’s death hurt me because I wanted to know second chances were a true thing, that despite hardships in the end you can have joy and happiness with family and friends and it would all work out because during that time I was experiencing familial tragedy and hardships that I look to this show for a positive and uplifting message that second chances can occur, that despite suffering in life a happy ending awaited all. And honestly the brutal truth at least for me was that this was not the show to look for those concepts or that message.)
Third: Shipping it got out of hand it took over the show the fandom the writing everything.
This is my take on it. I am probably more wrong than right. But that is just my thoughts on the subject.

That doesn’t make a lick of sense unless they are doing a massive time jump. Like, several years. I’ve been meaning to answer @darkonedearie about why I find this rapid age up and sexualization of Ivy in Gotham to be disturbing so I’ll do it now. You’re absolutely correct that Ivy is heavily sexualized in the comics (and whether continuing that portrayal is okay given how far culture and society has come since the first publications of Batman is a debate for another day….) What this says about the show and the writers is that they can’t think of any other storyline for this young girl (who has only ever been mostly background fodder) than to make her into a sexual object. Like, is there really nothing else they could write to help explain how this child interacts with the world that causes her to become Ivy from comic lore other than to turn her into a sexual being? It’s like…women can only become fully realized and given narrative weight if it somehow ties to their sexuality and how men (a show written by men, based on comics written by men…) view women.

I am not happy about this….
"I will be kind but I will speak my mind."
See @RumplesGirl I not familiar with all of the mythos of Batman. However the Court of Owls just feel like they will go wrong way wrong with it. Just like the Batman Clone gives me major pause.
However I would be happy to be surprised and hope they do both things justice and prove me wrong.

Ok bare with me people I was behind on Gotham so I am basically it marathon it all in like two sittings and then watch the finale live.
I must say when you Marathon a series you don’t have time to really think of it critically with each episode. Marathon a series is like entering a food eating contest you just digest and digest. No time to savor it each morsel. My brain received Gotham like I was at fair eating cotton candy and funnel cakes. I truly enjoyed Season 2B in all campy glory. It was far better to me then Season 2A where for me the most notable thing was Jerome and the other crazies. Season 2b from the introduction from freeze to Doctor Hugo Strange was enjoyable amusement ride. With all that said. I watch the Finale Live and that was when a bit of the stomach sickness begin to encroach. I didn’t hate it and I wasn’t bored but it was not all it could be. I left wanting a bit more. Maybe it was just anti-climatic.
I felt Strange Demise really fell flat with me. I simply was not impress with his crying and whining and squabbling reminded me how ridiculous Galavan turn out to be. Honestly I’m wondering how did Dr. Strange survive the fire and artic blast. Like come on really.
Firefly vs Freeze: me like a lot. It remind be of that Robert Frost poem.
There fore the battle between those two were a nice tasteful imagery however Like one has said I wanted Firefly to defend her friend because she was starting to remember her.
The Archetypes villains/monsters that Strange was creating like a comic book creator was psychological interesting however there is a part of me who want these villains to derive their own characteristics from their own broken psyche. Of course it seem like Strange was just making suggestions and the monsters were filling in the pieces.
I do not LIKE THE COURT OF OWLS. there I said it. I think the secret council is cliche and overused and to close to Galavan stuff which turn sour with me after that gawd awful family feud backstory.
I am not happy with a Bruce Clone, we had a fake Jim Gordon it was fun and campy and silly and I loved it but dear Lord not a whole season of Bruce Clone just no. I just can’t.
Fish Mooney Love her but I agree with @RumplesGirl one expletive was enough. Love that she got a super girl controlling people it fits.
Baby Bat and Cat are adorable I love them I sorry I do.
Gordon to find Leigh I was like its about time (And of course my mind with paternity leave. He wants to get some daddy bonding time as well, but then I was like wait the season is over now. When does filming restart and when is that baby due?) Also as RG and others pointed out is this really the right time for this?
The Bomb: I just thought of the Bomb in Batman Forever the one that killed Robin’s family. I loved that they defused the bomb by accident. It was hilarious to me.
Ms. Peebody: I love her. She is just no nonsense lets get this over with because we got work to do.
Penguin: I actually enjoyed Penguin this season. I actually felt pity for him at one point and I was like why I am feeling sorry for Penguin he is crazy and sadistic. And he even used some Greco-Roman mythos type of revenge were a mother ate her own children before being slaughtered.
Riddler: was Perfect. Loved Him all the way through.
Overall I have to be honest I don’t have much complaints for season 2B. It was fun and thrilling. What can I say I enjoy greasy sugary sweet fair food even if I get a stomach ache later.
Sorry for the confusion I am a bit rusty on these sort of things.

I don’t think Henry is destroying magic to hurt anyone he is destroying magic because he probably thinks this will help everyone and fix the wrongs. For instance perhaps no magic means no sleeping curse to Belle so she can now wake up. Either way I doubt this would even work, and if it did work they will fix it in season 6.
In regards to Neal seriously like why? I don’t even understand this secret quest supposedly by Neal, this is like the Snowing Secret that came out of the blue in season 4.
