Last weeks episode was horrid, and just when I think the show can't do anything stupider...
They go and do this and totally redeem themselves. Great episode, and the actors gave their best performances of the series.
The ending. At first I thought it was too much of a gimmick. But it was done very well,and the show has a great sense of closure.

My sentiments exactly. Shit was off the hook...but still really sad.pendiana jones wrote:great fuckin ending. it was truly depressing though. .
rarely does a show or series make me think of my own mortality and the people around me eventually dying.
holy shit that sucks
Anyone else hear Lyrics Born in the last scene in the house? Don't know if anyone cares, just thought it was kind of cool.
Great show, great finale.
Hey here comes the Brit...only 3 and a half months late. The finale of the series just aired here in the UK and I loved it. I thought that Nate's death episode couldnt be topped but all the actors and scriptwriters outdone themselves. The ending was really dope, havent been this sad about the end of a series since Quantum Leap.
And I agree with Phila. Lauren Ambrose was superb in this episode.

I thought that overall the series was great, but that ending was just too much. The make up was silly looking.
But yeah, this is the only non comedy show that I follow and its a real shame its finished. But better that than it go on for years and become shit I guess!

I was the same way! Even when I was trying to explain it to Tone (who doesn't watch the show), I was crying...NO show has ever made me feel like that...

i never watched this show.
my girl made me watch the finale, and this may have already been mentioned as i didn't read the thread, but what is the name of the song at the end?
where they're showing what happens in the future to them all...
that montage, along with the song, was epic. and i had never even watched it once...
with the old woman dying, and the younger girl just driving down the highway, with the song...
whew. quality...
