I have a lot of feelings.
Mmmmmm finales. I haz thinky-thoughts - with lots of spoiler space!
Smallville
I don't know how it happened, but this was THE MOST EMOTIONALLY MAGNIFICENT FINALE EVER. All my fears and apprehensions over where TPTB were taking the story were wiped away, just by that fucking amazing teaser. LOOOOOK. :3 Also: LOIS KNOWS!!!! *jumps up and down* I mean, FINALLY. I'm just. I'm so happy, and now I cannot wait for season 10.

Bones
Not quite the level of ~emotional magnificence~ that was the 100th, but I wouldn't have been able to handle that anyway. And I guess I already accepted that #100 was the gift to the fans, and the finale wouldn't be quite so epic, and I'm just fine with that.
We all saw it coming right on the heels of the previous ep, and personally, I'm happy with where they're taking the story. Booth and (especially) Brennan need this time apart. Everything between them has changed, it was a complete joke that they thought they could keep working together after Booth lay it all out on the table. They need perspective, they need to be sure of where they stand, because if they take that next step, they're taking it for good. Time apart, time doing what they think they're supposed to be doing will do just the trick. The ball's in Brennan's court now, and this little excursion will do nothing but make her realize that her real place in the world is fighting crime, with Booth at her side. She will realize that she has fundamentally changed, she's no longer the recluse who could only talk to bones, that she does have that kind of open heart.
I never expected them to take the easy resolution when it comes to this ship, and I'm seriously happy with what's happening now. I have complete trust in Hart Hanson.

Grey's Anatomy
Uhhh I quit this show back in November-ish, I think? But the 10-minute finale preview caught my attention, and of course I had to know what was going to happen.
I woke up early to watch the stream, and I was so fucking stressed out the whole time. Nothing like Ron Butterfield wielding a gun and shooting everyone in sight to make shit compelling!!!!!!1!1!one!1 Eh. In hindsight, it's actually pretty lazy writing, but whatever, it's Grey's fucking Anatomy so that's just par for the course. It was so jarring to see all the lame relationship drama be sprinkled in between gunman moments, it just seemed so unnatural and downright bizarre in moments. If there's a gunman roaming around my workplace, I'd be working to get out, not rehashing issues with my ex-boyfriend for the 2392085783048th time. :| Also: FAIL, LAW ENFORCEMENT. FAIL. Do none of the hospital doors have locks, for fuck's sake??? Then again, it's Grey's, so whatever.
Bailey made me cryyyyyyy, oh god. That was a brilliant scene, in the end. Definitely the one that rang most true to me. And I don't even care about the dude that died!
My biggest issue with the episode, though? Meredith losing the baby. DAMN YOU, SHONDA RHIMES. DAMN YOU FOR BEING COMPLETELY INCAPABLE OF WRITING HAPPY CHARACTERS. I do not fucking want ~dark and twisty~ Meredith back. I know your deranged brain enjoys putting her through just about every miserable thing EVER, but dammit, enough is enough. It's been six fucking seasons, that girl has been through the wringer, she deserves some stability. What, like having the love of her life almost dying in her arms wasn't enough to give her a new set of issues - you had to take away McBaby too? I HATE YOU AND YOUR STUPID SHOW.
Just. Ugh. Raaaaaage. I've been invested in Derek and Meredith's happiness from the very beginning, and it's so annoying to be toyed with this way, and not even for storytelling reasons. It's just an insane showrunner indulging in some sicko version of ~reality~. Blaaaaaaargh. I quit.

I've been Jeff/Annie all along, and I ship them REALLY HARD, but uhhhhh this kinda came out of nowhere? And this being a sitcom, I really don't expect to get any kind of emotional payoff from, well, anything. lol I bet they're going to take it back in the first minute of the S2 premiere. It was just... a bizarre and mostly unfunny episode overall? A lot of it felt off, and just left me confused. IDK, I'm not dwelling on it too much, just enjoying the kissing. :3
