Manifest finale spoilers. I'm about to rant.
What the f-ck was that ending?
It might as well have all been a dream. Other than Mick meeting Zeke, a few people disappearing, and Saanvi's cancer treatment coming out soon enough to treat Cal, nothing is different than if the show had never happened.
I'd have preferred the characters find happiness in their shitty world. Or heck, even all of them dying in their shitty world to sacrifice themselves for people they love (that would have required a different setup from the beginning of s4 so that we saw the people that the passengers loved).
This ending reminds me of the dilemma in scifi where a character has to chose to live in a happy fake world or a tough & gritty real world. The show writers chose the happy fake. I'd have preferred to see the real world.
I was optimistic for this season and really had hope this show was going to be better than previous shows about explaining the mystery. Of all the theories of how it would go, resetting back to the plane not crashing was the most boring one & what I really hoped wouldn't happen. I guess it's a satisfying-ish ending if you had low expectations.
I just thought we'd actually get some answers, and was also disappointed by all but one of the character's endings. Since the show chose to ignore the mystery and focus on character stories, I'm going to address my issues with those.
TJ lost Olive, but immediately seems to forget her because another cute girl shows up.
Mick ends her relationship with Jared, because he wants kids and she doesn't, but how did that never come up for them in conversation before. Took my opinion of both of them down a bit. Then, 5 seconds after Jared got dumped by the woman he wanted to marry, he's already flirting with another woman. Took my opinion of Jarod about as low as it can get. Shame because I had actually liked him.
The Cal, Olive, and Grace we knew are all gone. Never going to even exist. They're basically fake versions of themselves now. Grace is reset back to season 1, which means she's the annoying version I wanted Ben to dump. Also, how is Ben going to explain that he had sex with someone on the plane? Season 1 Grace would not be open to the whole "hey, we went to another world or whatever" story. She didn't believe anything Ben said about it until she saw it affecting Cal. There's no way she believes his story if she hears it led to him sleeping with someone else. Unless Ben plans to lie to his wife, she's leaving him soon. If he does keep it a secret that he slept with Cal's doctor, that just means she'll leave a little later. Keeping that secret will destroy their relationship. It was a really terrible writing choice to have Ben and Saanvi hook up and then just go back to their previous partners like nothing changed. I think they're great together, but I'd have preferred nothing happen if that was how it ended.
The one thing I really wanted was for Saanvi to realize that she deserves better than the person who kept rejecting her over and over, but nope. Zero growth. I felt so bad for her and feel like from what we know of Alex, she'll go right back to her family soon. Or maybe Saanvi will get enough self esteem to get angry at how Alex treated her (both by not taking the flight and by how she repeatedly rejected her in the real world).
Vance is back to being kind of a jerk who knows none of them. I suppose I'm glad he has his family back, but his character development was meaningless. I'd rather have seem him get his family back in the real world.
The only ending that didn't suck was Mick found Zeke based on what he told her in the real world. I personally wasn't attached to Mick with either guy, so I wasn't expecting her ending to be the most satisfying. At least one story we watched ended up having meaning.
After so many shows have ended disappointingly, I just really wanted one to stick the landing. (pun not intended, but I'm keeping it) This ending was a major (pun also not intended, but I'm also keeping it) bummer.
I don't know how go wrap this up, so I'm just going to drop this. In five years or less, Ben and Grace are definitely split. So are Saanvi and Alex. Hey, maybe Benvi will get back together then. Lol.

I keep having issue where the scale of Manifest is all over the place - they keep framing the passenger issues as nation, world-spanning, but there's like 200 of them
There's SOME justification for most of the passengers being around New York, because the precipitating event was a plane from the Caribbean to New York, so a substantial number of the characters were based there.
But it still feels weird when compared to say, the 4400, where that's a fair number of people, and events increase them, or Raising Dion, where there's an unknown number of people

Ben Stone should be drawn and quartered and faced with the worst torture. Worst father award. Michaela Stone is a bad sibling, she should hold him in choker hold until he cries uncle and apologizes for treating his children like shit.
#NOTHING justifies how hes treating Olive and Cal. losing a wife and a kid doesn’t come close#the other characters’ treatment of him is also terrible. why would you let him do this to his children for 2 years#manifest#manifest tv show#manifest tv#ben stone#michaela stone

Manifest’s ending is weird af but I think I like it. Actually it’s super magical and interesting. An ending made for the story. The creators had a story to tell and the finished it with a nice little bow. There’s no questions to be asked, but it’s definitely weird. Maybe this is what happens when authors know what the ending to their story is gonna be when they begin the story, but it also felt like an ending that didn’t need to be thought up beforehand to get to it. Hmm. That might be the most oddly satisfying ending to a show I’ve ever seen.

Russell T Davies throwing his glove in the dirt and going "There, bet you can't make a David Tennant character happier than that!"
And Neil Gaiman simply saying, "Just fucking watch me."

i know it's a while off, but ...
i wonder how they're going to do aphrodite in the show. like, her appearance is CONSTANTLY changing, right?? because she looks like each person's ideal beauty, basically.
so i wonder how they're going to make her face and hair and everything shift and change all the time.
because one second, to percy, she looks like annabeth. the next, like someone else.
i wonder how they're going to edit that and have it transition between each "look" that percy sees her as.
will it flicker between shots and she'll "change" between each one?? or will the shot move to percy's face and then back and she'll look like annabeth and then someone else???
#i cant stop thinking about it#like HOW#hopefully this made sense#manifesting a pjo season 3 with this one 🤞🤞#aphrodite's constantly changing looks is smth thats so cool#i really hope they add it#like if they dont i'll be so disappointed#percy jackson#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo tv show#percy jackson tv series#pjo series#pjo#pjo fandom#percabeth#annabeth chase#pjo spoilers#aphrodite

I was a bit concerned about how will they would film these scenes with their height difference, because I though it'd be only close shots to avoid that problem, but THIS, this is amazing.
It really captures how tiny she is and the nuisance that it could lead to, I love so much how Colin is hunching himself in order to reach her and he is also bending his knees and Pen is probably in her tippy toes!!!
Even if is only in my dreams, I'll manifest to have this kind of problems!! And Nicola is 3cm taller than me.

So y'all know how in Zootopia when Judy meets Nick for the first time and he's being all condescending and dismissive and very "well aren't you so cute" and makes her look like a country hick, but then she outsmarts him with her own play, girlboss blackmails him, and hits him back with the iconic "it's called a hustle, sweetheart."
I need a Ghoulcy version of that. STAT. Heavy on the "sweetheart" getting thrown back at him.
#like imagine the ghoul being all pissed#but also lowkey proud and a little turned on by her competence#oh that would eat so bad#and lucy is all proud of herself too practically beaming#especially after he gives her a begrudging compliment#manifesting this directly into the writers' skulls#ghoulcy#vaultghoul#lucy x the ghoul#lucy x cooper#fallout#fallout show#fallout tv series
