Before trying a human heart they should at least throw him in the sun for good luck, Lara was wrong with the inverse world and there’s no way that she understands the full effects of a yellow sun since most of it seems magical.

I absolutely loved the show, but every plot involving the Cushing familly was a total pain in the ass...

I think his heart was weakened by where lex kept it .

He got a different heart completely, he didn’t get his own back, that was the issue.

How on earth did the writers manage to make a show about Superman a depressing mess? Genuinely one of the worst endings i've ever seen to a TV show too, would have been best to just leave Superman and Lois's future to the viewers imagination....

Hard disagree. This was one of the best endings for a tv series, not even just for a show about super hero's. To have a real ending was so beautiful. It's such cop out these days to have a 'leave it the imagination' ending. No, finish the damn story, I want an ending. This one was done so well, it'll stick with me for a bit. All the emotions. So well done.

I completely disagree with you . It was the best ending I’ve seen on a TV show. It leaves nothing to the imagination as what happened to Lois or Clark or the kids. The only question not answered was if the grand kids were super. I believe it’s how a TV show should come to an end . Leave on a high . It also signifies that the end had been determined from the beginning.

It was good. I entered this season thinking they would tell the comic version of the death and return of Superman but what they did was still pretty good. Good show that could have gone on for longer if it wasn’t for the DCU being a complete failure and Gunns new Superman movie around the corner.

Absolutely amazing show. Had that one lame season but I liked it. I just finished the series. Such a touching and awesome ending. I wasn't thrilled about the heart angle, but in the end it was perfectly done. I wish we got more time with the boys getting suits and being heroes.
One of my favourite moments in this season was when Lex fought with Clark on the streets without powers. It was so good when Clark got up and beat his ass!

As much as I wanted, doomsday to pull out his heart and give it to Clark before he pushed him into the sun, I realize to the entire ethos of the show was about the relationship between Clark and Lois and addressing the issue of Superman outliving all the people he loves most in this world and being forced to live forever outliving not only his wife but also his children and grandchildren.
In the wrap up they made a point that he lived over 30 years after the events of the story finished and gave us a wrapu for us all to see, which is also beautiful because if they did miracle get to extend the storylines, there can be many adventures still have not been portrayed that could easily still fit within the canon of the story.
The only thing it definitely closes the narrative Superman heart ever be replaced back with a kryptonian heart, and we now know that he will outlive his wife, but the have his children by his side when he passes away.
Beautiful ending my wife came into the room two minutes before it finished and saw me crying.
The storylines were so hard to watch. It took me time to get through them all because of recently lost two relatives and had also lost my mother to cancer, and my wife also lost her mother last year, this show has a good way of pulling your heartstrings.
If we don’t see this show continue and not picked up anywhere else.
I thank the directors and the writers for having the heart to give us a beautiful wrap up to really cement the relationship between Superman and Lois.
Thank you.

Just made a thanks post telling nearly the same thing right before Reading your comment.
Tyler absolutely nailed it with this performance, best Clark Kent live action ever

I echo this as well . My other half left when I teared up seeing my beloved Superman die. So she didn’t see my cry. I also thank the producers and directors and amazing cast . Never liked the dude who played superman but he grew on me.

If this show gets a season 5 I hope this ending is retconned. It felt rushed and just packed away. . But it’s probably me just not wanting the show to be over.
P.s Please cast new actors for Adult Jon and Jordan.

Personally I didn't like the plot and the film style this season was atrocious with all the moving shots. but the message at the end was pretty tear jerking..

A very subtle ending to a show that was so short, I loved the presence of the actor who played haris well from The Flash, it was rather more comical. The entire arrowverse is lowkey goated and I love the fact that I got to experience 2 (The Flash & Superman and Lois) of its good shows, I'd definitely love to watch arrow as well
Honest to god, I'm lowkey an emotional guy and almost every show makes me cry at the end and this one wasn't different. I loved it from the very start to the end, it brought up every emotion, inexplicable.

What an amazing finale! Tyler and Bitsie have cemented themselves as the BEST versions of these characters we’ve ever had. That was a beautiful ending to an amazing series. It made us cheer, it made us cry, it gave us hope and inspired us to be better. Thank you to everyone who made the show possible. Thank you for showing us who Superman should be again. Thank you Superman and Lois.

Superb in every way. I was emotionally wrecked as I watched the finale.

Sinceramente opino que fue terrible el final, cómo mataron a doomsday así? No tiene sentido, literalmente tuvo 25 oportunidades para hacer eso o acercarse al sol para ser más fuerte y vencerlo, encima, cómo pueden ser jordan y Jonathan igual de rápidos que doomsday si ese doomsday es más rápido que Superman en su momento normal? Peor aún, cómo Superman débil puede aguantarle a doomsday si doomsday es más fuerte que Superman en su momento en su momento normal?

How tf was Lex able to step on & destroy Clark's heart? I thought they would address that.. If they really wanted to destroy Clark's heart, they should've made Doomsday do it.
Other than a few plot nitpicks and bad CGI for John Henry and Natalie suits throughout S4, the final season was quite good. The first 3 seasons never had bad CGI. Overall, this is my favorite among Arrowverse shows.
