I liked this finale a lot, and from reading the interviews Michelle Ashford has done after the finale with Sepinwall and Todd - go read them, they're great http://www.vox.com/2014/9/2… http://www.hitfix.com/whats… - it has become clear that the biggest problem with this season was really the lack of material - from…

Yeah I found it quite interesting that the one person she actually gets to play the role of the mother with is Bill, rather than her children.

This was a great episode. The relationship between Bill and Virginia will always be the best part of the show and I'm not sure that was any different in this episode, which was brought home by that ending, but I found that final Libby scene went a hell of a long way in redeeming that arc this year. I think part of the…

Yeah that whole "I forgive you Bill" was a piece of shit move.. But he has probably had the exact same life that Bill has, he just hasn't been in every episode for us to see it like Bill. Who can really blame him for coming up with that story to make living his life easier? He's lying to himself as much as Bill is but…

I think this episode may actually be a better submission for Sheen.. He gets to show the complete range of emotions and play every side of his character. Fight is a great episode and a great submission but it's also incredibly subtle work and as we've seen with Jon Hamm for the last seven years.. the emmys don't do…

Oh I completely agree about the sub-plotting this year and it has been consistently bringing the show down all season. I understand there were scheduling conflicts with Janney and Bridges but that doesn't mean you need to give other actors storylines just because they're available. Austin has no business being on this…

I just find it way too simplistic a view to call Bill a "fucking asshole". We see every side of Bill Masters in this episode; we see him at his most vindictive but also his most vulnerable. It's becoming clear that he lives in a constant state of self-loathing and this episode if anything, shows that he finds it…

Completely agree, and that quote pretty much sums up the episode perfectly. As someone else said, I love that the show doesn't necessarily declare one side right or wrong, the show doesn't judge its characters so why make a statement in such absolutist terms as to call Bill a "fucking asshole". And omg, if Michael…
