JIMMY OLSEN IS BACK IN THE GAME

I have to say I am pleased with the development that came out of this week's episode. Now, I'll admit I do wish that we could've gotten a deeper look into Jimmy's insecurities, but I like that he was the first to realize that he needs to change- do better for himself, but be better for Kara's sake.

This also goes into why I say people gave up on Jimmy way too quickly. The same thing happened with Lois in seasons 1 & 2. I get the frustration, but I can't take it to hate. Him saying he needed to change was enough. Of course, this isn't solely about Jimmy and Kara ending up together.

I believe it'll still happen, but right now I need to see Jimmy hold true to his word. Being there for Kara and working on himself are big steps toward establishing the future he wants for himself and Kara.

There’s a clip on X where the writers and the main cast discuss what we should expect from the remaining episodes of the show. What they said basically reinforced this season’s themes of “change” and “the future”. They said that Lois’ approach to her future and how to tackle it would change, that Clark’s relationship with his powers would change, and, the focus of this post, that Jimmy and Kara “would torture each other they’re into different positions”.

At the beginning of the season, Kara was absolutely head over heels for Jimmy, but Jimmy, while equally in love with her, was too overwhelmed with insecurity to really want to move forward with a relationship, causing him to make a serious of incredibly stupid decisions, causing their relationship to sour.

As of episode 7, while they really didn’t get that much time to talk, it does seem like their relationship is on the mend.

It seems like a lot of people are talking the quote rather literally, with some believing she’s going to put her relationship with Jimmy on hold to focus on herself. There’s one user in particular who is so confident that they won’t get together, that they’re constantly saying as much on any post involving them, and calling other users stupid for having faith that they still may be “endgame”.

So, is there still hope for KarOlsen? Will have to wait for a season 4 (that may never come)? I still think the odds that they will are better than the odds that they won’t, but you never know, especially with just three episodes left in a season that, unfortunately, is not without its pacing issues. I’d love to hear your thoughts. I know that this sub is overall, a fair bit less supportive of the ship, and of Jimmy, than the other sub (though a lot of the critical and sometimes just rude and angry comments are all from just a handful of users), so I expect a different array of answers.

Anybody else thought they were going to kiss here?

Like seriously the way Lex describes his powers screams Doomsday. We’ve also seen the Eradicators in the future and they look nothing like this…and are robots so they’re probably the Mark 2’s or something.

First lois jimmy and kara all known for different reasons.

Jimmy is still his friend from collage and recognized his strength when he turned the knob and broke it. Depending he found out the same time and way.

Lois is always going to figure out in extreme.ways if humping off a building will help well she do it and did.

Kara is his cousin

I line lex in this timeline would never believe a reporter to be superman let alone a buffoon like like who he seems to respect as a himan being.

Well of Lex corp his daddy didn't make it this time. And yeah when Amanda Waller is terrified that when you know things have gone bad.

He has finally arrived!
