Stargirl season three review
Intro: If we do get another season the writers are going to have to do something different to keep us interested in the series like have an ending that's bittersweet.
Stargirl season three: This season takes place after the summer and the JSA is trying to find common ground with their foes. That becomes difficult when one of the villains is murdered. So, the JSA have to figure out who did it before the tension between the two groups get out of hand.
This season fell short of being better than the previous one. I like that this season is about solving a mystery the problem with it is that it has a payoff or stakes in solving it. Also, between the mystery in Arrow season three and the Flash season one, this is the weakest one. What hurt the mystery is that it drags and it cheats us out for figuring out who did it? I'm annoyed that this series brings back old characters, I mean what's the point of legacy characters if we don't focus on them? Plus, this is a sign of lazy writing. The theme of this season is forgiveness and second chances. I just wish the writers would do a good job of dealing with those themes. For example, forgiveness and second chances are not the same thing. There are plot points that pop out of
This season hasn't done much with Courtney/Stargirl beyond her crushing on Cameron and being conflicted about being Stargirl now that Sylvester/Starman is back.
Speaking of Sylvester/Starman we get an explanation as to why he's still alive, but I would prefer that he stay dead. He serves as a mentor for the JSA but we have Pat for that.
Cameron is the tragic character in this season. Just as things were starting to look up for him it crashes and burn.
Yolanda/ Wildcat is still dealing with her mom giving her grief over what she did. I'm glad that she stood up for herself. I just wish her mother would break the ice.
I wouldn't have minded Rick/Hourman being addicted to the hourglass if he burn bridges because of his addiction. So, he tries to earn their forgiveness.
I don't have much to say about the rest of the characters because this season hasn't done much with them. Despite how I feel about the mystery it was a nice change in pace for the series. There is a twist that will take you by surprise. This season has world-building and the ending is fine. Overall, whether or not this is the last season it didn't end on a high note.
