It’s been seven years, and well, the finale wasn’t what I expected.
Of course, I’d be disappointed if it was.
That said, it was phenomenal. Loose ends were tied up, while many threads were left open, presumably to imply that, after all that has happened tonight, life in Farmington will still be going on tomorrow.
I suppose the most jarring aspect of this episode was the amount of space and silence employed. It’s rare for this show to breathe, but there were several moments of that here. In fact, there are several minutes of it.
For a show like this, a minute is an eternity.
