Now that we know next season is going to focused on the supernatural I nominate Felix Faust and/or Anton Arcane and his Un-Men for appearances.
I did not expect Rip to die, but it seems like his role has gotten smaller and smaller as the show has gone on, so I'm not too surprised they finally just killed him off once and for all.
Someone needs to make Beebo dolls.
What did you do, Ray!?I can’t be the only one thinking Staypuft Marshmellow Man at the end?
People that final episode was serious and not funny! A sentient life was brought into existence with limited intelligence and designed to to fight and kill. The Bebo lifeform's entire lifespan exsited mere minutes and was filled with nothing but violence. He/She never got the chance to explore life or find a deeper meaning to life. Never got to find love. Then nobody even mourns his/her death. Imagine your entire life being remembered as a funny joke even from your creator who was in essence his/her father and mother and God combined into one person.

As I understood it, Giant Beebo wasn't really a separate life form -- rather, the six totem-bearing Legends became him, merged into him and fought together as one being. Like Firestorm, but with six people instead of two. After all, we didn't see any of them onscreen throughout that whole sequence, but I think we heard their voiceovers during the battle. So any sentience Beebo possessed was that of the Legends themselves.
The thing is, I could swear I've seen a story like that before, where multiple heroes merged themselves into a single combined mystical or metaphysical avatar, but I can't remember where. It's sort of like Captain Planet, but the characters there didn't become CP, they just combined their powers to manifest him as a separate being. There was Digimon Tamers' biomerging, which was a Firestorm-like process where a Digimon and its human tamer merged into a single, more powerful form, but that was just two beings apiece rather than a larger gestalt. And in the current Super Sentai series, the Patrangers have a weird attack that merges all three of them into one multicolored Ranger, but that's definitely not what I was thinking of.
There was an animated prime time series on Cartoon Network during the early Ben 10 era, that rings a bell, but I can't for the life of me recall the name. Could that be what you're thinking of?The thing is, I could swear I've seen a story like that before, where multiple heroes merged themselves into a single combined mystical or metaphysical avatar, but I can't remember where.

Maybe you're thinking of Jack Kirby's Forever People, five young New Gods who merge to form Infinity-Man.

I really enjoy the fact that this show really doesn't take itself seriously at all. It's very fun and entertaining to watch. And yeah, I should have expected the Bebo v. Mallus final fight. When they all said "Yeah, I can't help thinking about him too..." and Bebo popped up, I was laughing my ass of thinking - "Of course they'd end it this way..."
