And some of them are simultaneously getting surgery to look older. It’s a real pickle.
Just checked out the last few episodes’ rating.
Well I knew the show was going off the rails at season 3 but what the hell?
Seems they had a strong second half to season 4 and a strong first half to season 5, and then just went off the rails again.
Anyone who finished it want to chime in?
In episode 7 Will came out to his mom and friends. Aside from just him coming out, it was important because doing so was necessary for him to believe in himself so he could do his part or something. Apparently it’s getting review bombed for that, it’s currently at 5.something which is bullshit. I think the episode’s quality was in line with the rest of the season, which so far is coming in around 8, maybe a little over. I agree with that. Pretty good, but not spectacular.
Edit: it’s got a long as fuck epilogue if you’re into that sort of thing.
it suffers from the same problem as every ending in the last ~20 years, that you have to tie up every loose end in a fairytale ending or else audiences get mad.
However, it’s the antithesis of drama, so you end up with the entire narrative trying to turn everyone on to a happy ending - so every episode is full of long passages of exposition in order to accommodate that.
Wasn’t that bad. But yeah you know how it’s going to end. And like too much blablab
I cried at the end.
I haven’t watched the final episode yet, but overall I’ve enjoyed this season, with only a few minor nitpicks.
People didn’t understand the cannibal story
I think it likely is getting review bombed for the gay stuff, but honestly there wasn’t even that much of it.
I thought it got too complicated for its own good and accumulated way too many characters, but that was true of the entire last half of the series.
The ending was pretty anticlimactic but it wasn’t like how i met your mother levels of bad. The last episode felt at times like a clip show. They should’ve wrapped the whole thing up sooner, but it was not the weirdest or worst ending to a show in recent memory, just kinda drawn out and a bit saccharine.
Well, in November I’ll be 30
