How confident are you that Kevison is endgame? Did the season finale change your confidence level? I still think Madison makes the most sense as his endgame, but the writers are always bringing Sophie back and it's annoying and worries me. 😣😩
A bajillion? My non-number percentage hasn't changed, anon. In fact, this finale has solidified even more that they're going to be endgame.
If I were to address some of the more particular reasons as to why I'm even more sure that they're endgame it's these:
They're literally following Jerry Maguire to a T and Kevison is in the breakup stage now. And we know that the resolution to that movie is Jerry realising he's in love with Dorothy. In the same way, Kevin will realise it too for Madison. The End(game).
Character development. Most of the general audience's gripe about Madison as Kevin's endgame is her lack of growth or development. She was seen mainly as the comedic side character with seemingly no importance to the story apart from Kate's best friend. Well lo and behold, HERE'S HER TRAGIC BACKSTORY B*TCH (!!!)
Chemistry. Controversial and of varying opinions here, of course, but for those in the general audience who were wanting to see that chemistry that they're after to truly root for Kevison, well, here's a 5 second clip of them in the flash forward to prove that what you've been wanting has always been there all this time, and that Justin and Cait can most definitely deliver, AND THEY WILL, in the "right" time. I say "right" time because the way they've structured this is shiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.
Sophie. No character development? Check. Doesn't have her own individual arc or story outside of childhood/first love, cheating? Check. Doesn't have any interaction with any other Pearson and/or character apart from Kevin? Check. Hasn't been called family by any of the Pearson or been told straight up that they like her? Check. Wanted to avoid the Pearsons in general after getting back with Kevin whereas Madison's all my best friendship with Kate over everything? Check.
I could go on and on with this list, but there is nothing there for Sophie to root for to be Kevin's endgame unless they want to toss in a last minute, undeserved ending for who? For the last bit of fans all hung up on childhood romance? Yeah, no ma'am.
The writers bring back Sophie because she's Kevin's "longest" romance and against Zoe, who doesn't want children, and Cassidy who has a family of her own, she's the most convenient and the only one who could really pose as a "threat" to Madison.
I say "threat" because who are we actually kidding here? She really is nowhere near. In fact, it's become comical how much the writers are trying to play this out by leaving these loose-ends when honestly, we're all tired and just want to move on already.
We don't faaaaaaacking care anymore about this but since they still want to play this damn game, then Sophie will show up and make annoying noises until Kevin explicitly tells Madison that he loves her and is in love with her. But even then, kophie shippers are probably still gonna find a way to argue that they're endgame. B*TCH IT'S CALLED FANFICTION WRITE ONE FFS
