User blog comment:Cody Kins TD Fan/Which is the Worst Season Finale: TDAS or TDWT? Note: PLEASE NO MIKE AND ZOEY BASHING!/@comment-2181164-20131208213843/@comment-1037137-20131209032159

Sorry, Codykins.

Yeah, Lightning was a total dud of a character. Out of the three villains introduced in TDROTI, I'd have to say Jo was the best of them and should've made it much farther. She was smarter and stronger than Scott, and much smarter than Lightning. And she was an interesting villain, her attitude got to me but hey, she was a good villain, even if she was not the central antagonist. Not sure how Lightning got so far, he should've left at the time Jo left. And his conflict with Cameron? That was a last-second justification for keeping him around so long. Not sure why the writers saw him as finalist material when they didn't give him zilch to work with until the very last minute.
