[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not saying too much as I think many people haven’t finished yet.

I liked this season and think the show is so much better in NYC and the presence of the bookstore. That said I HATED the ending.[/quote]

I didn’t like the ending either.

While I usually like a happy ending nearly tying up the story, this one fell flat and seemed like a wild departure from the series.

The whole Girl Power!!! happy ending seemed forced and out of place. I admire their attempt to shift the narrative voice, but it just felt wrong.

Honestly, I would have liked to see it end with Joe once again miraculously getting away with it and starting over someplace new with his son. Bonus points for the narrative voice shifting to his kid. They could have done it in a kitschy yet slightly dark way, and that would have aligned better with the series. [/quote]
That would have been a good ending. The attempt to impose conventional morality onto a story that worked best with satire and irony was definitely forced.[/quote]
