The episode was OK, kind of good, kind of stale at times. I loved Chang's speech at the end showing how at least someone in the group is clearly better for it. The tag at the end was weird but whatever it was obviously fictional and the writer was playing a character nor were the actual creators or writers used in…

Granted I am speculating. But you would have to be a very bad writer to think that leaving the conclusion up to the audience is better than coming up with a more definitive ending ones self. Once again the convention of an ambiguous ending can work but most of the time it just doesn't work.

So why even have endings? Why not just stop in the middle of a sentence for each novel? Obviously that's hyperbolic but there is a balance needed between spelling out everything needlessly for the audience and going with too much ambiguity.

It's not laziness in a "I don't want to do the work" kind of way. But rather lazy in a sense of "I don't want to make the call" type of way. The decision to not have a definitive ending and thus placing the ending in the hands of the audience's interpretation. David Chase could have had Tony killed or not. But he…

I think you are implying artistic licenses that might not be there. As the audience we were privy to just how phony and hollow the real Don Draper was. We were shown behind the curtain. That was a big part of the show. To not give the audience who watched 92 episodes over the course of years (some going as far back as…

That's a fair point, I don't think we needed to see everything. But it was just odd to see everyone except Don have some sort of conclusion. Peter and Trudy, Peggy and Stan, Rodger, Betty and the kids, and Joan all got concluded arcs. But Don didn't get that level of conclusion. It just stuck out like a sore thumb to…

The Sopranos rewarded nearly a decade of fans watching and paying money for HBO by telling them to do the work and make up their own ending. Guess what that's not how the medium should work. You weave a story with a beginning middle and an end. If you skip out on the end guess what that's not artistic that's lazy.

This was a good Finale. But not a great finale. My only real gripe was Don's ending. They wrapped up everyone's storyline's fairly simply with only one major exception. Peter and Trudy moved to Omaha and reunited their families, Joan decided to start her production business instead of enjoying a life of leisure,…

The whole concept of the show is crazy and unique and I love it. But yeah they need to find the right Al Bundy esque balance for him (Bundy at his best was the guy who never got a break but when he did he always pushed his luck and lost, so you didn't feel that bad when he lost because he never just took what life…

Only advantage of Tucson would be not much earthquakes and its closer to the center of the country where people could reach you easier. But yeah I would think California would be much better.

I really liked it. Very interesting concept that was executed pretty well. They did a good job of getting the whole fun stuff you would do if you were the last man on Earth part down. Then they went into the negative and lonely aspects which really made you connect with the character well.

I think its better that you don't spell out the happily ever after for the audience. In under an hour of screen time you basically told the next 30+ years of the characters lives. Its a very sudden and abrupt thing and it takes the mystery out of what the characters will be doing.

I think in general its always best when you don't see everything and the happily ever after isn't spelled out. With the flash forwards going 30+ years into the future I think it basically spelled out the characters lives in less than an hour of screen time.

I think it was pretty self evident that Leslie was the one that touched each and everyone's lives and vice versa. I got what they were going for and it may have worked. But I think leaving the future as an unknown while giving everyone a new adventure would have been a better way to go.

I think that's a good possible way to look at it. But I think that it was a literal flash forward. Showing the characters as they progress in life and move forward. Yes I think each character got their happy ending and Parks and Rec showed each character as optimistically as possible as that's the nature of the show.

I loved Parks and Rec ever since I saw DJ Roomba in season 2. But I felt the Finale was too final. I hate seeing what characters end up like way in the future. Its a little sad seeing the characters age. The best finales leave more to the imagination. I thought the Final season of Parks and Rec was really good and the…

You can't rush greatness…

St.Cloud worked really well in What Color is your Clean Suite (I also liked his cameo getting rejected at the nightclub). In Spanakopita! he was eh, but overall he gets too much crap from fans. As long as they don't shoehorn him in often he seems to be a character they could throw in a situation now and again.

The season has been typical great Venture Bros. But I really think it shouldn't be compared to a 12 or 16 episode season. If they did a season 5 part 2 with another 8 episodes I think you would see it will likely be the same quality.

This "season finale" (Which I think its only the end of part 1 of season 5 it seems like) was a bit disappointing as far as season Finales go. And that's mostly because the last few the Venture Bros have done have been amazing. This one was a nice episode and I normally would have given it a B but compared to other…
