[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was one of the commenters above who was enjoying the show, but it kind of fizzled out at the end.

I agree that the sex stuff was off-putting. I think the point of it was to be off-putting. For "art." But, at the end, there just wasn't much payoff for enduring that discomfort. [/quote] It’s not the destination, it’s the journey. At some point, you care so much about the characters and how they developed their story, that the ending is less important. I enjoyed the show, you have to watch most episodes twice to catch all the nuances. Also, the sex is mostly innuendo, I remember very little actual sex scenes. [/quote]

Mileage varies. I'm happy to enjoy the journey. But, for me, for the journey to seem meaningful, there also has to be some meaning to the destination. I like basically everything about my backyard, but I'm not going to just walk around it in circles, no matter how pleasant that journey may be. [/quote]

I get that the show isn't for everyone, but in the finale, everything really came together.  It was heartbreaking, and the themes about people and their struggles felt very real, despite some of the earlier episodes that just seemed far-fetched and maybe even weird. I wasn't sure what I would think of the show but I stuck with it, and the finale was worth it.[/quote]
