“I don’t know if I expected the ending to be awesome, but you know what? It was pretty good.
A lot of these stories seem to write themselves into a place where the only options for endings are either “they all died” or something pretty weird and unusual has to happen, which hasn’t really been explained up until the end.
But this one did alright!
And honestly, that’s good for a long series. I don’t need the ending to be the equal of the series anymore. Just not annoying and stupid. Just so long as the end doesn’t make the series worse in retrospect, I’m cool.
A lot of us need to learn to separate our feelings about the series ending from the ending itself. I think a lot of TV viewers want an ending to be the peak, the ultimate episode, the best episode, and it NEVER is. EVER. So just accept it, dudes. Accept that the ending just needs to be pretty good, and let’s all move on.”
