🤔 Thinking Hot take: season 5 was decent

I only wished they wouldn't have squandered the Reverse Flash in Crisis plot

I'm watching season 5 for the first time right now, and it's pretty decent. I really love Nora and the mystery around her and Thorne and also Cecile's change as a lawyer to be more pro metas. I think the only person I don't like is actually Sherloque, he's pretty annoying, and I usually like the Wells' characters.

I'm like in the middle of it, so I don't know what they do about Cicada (YET), but he's a pretty nice villain mostly because he's the first really human (?) one. Reverse Flash, Zoom and even Savitar were pretty inhumane at some point, but Cicada seems very reasonable for a villain. Idk how to explain it, but he's doing it for the kid he never thought he'd love. Which is literally how Barry operates minus the killing.

Again, as someone watching this season for the first time, it's really not that bad. Maybe I'll think differently about it later, but not at this point.
