I only liked, but was not as high as most people on the show’s first season (some great episodes though), but this season has been such a big step up, including this finale. Ramping up the plot’s urgency has made the show’s drama deeper, and its humor sharper too.
I know it’s been compared often, but the way so many pieces move into place in the finale reminds me of Breaking Bad (with the show’s very black comedy streak adding unique flavor/insight into an anti-hero of its own). The same kind of putting characters into impossible situations just to watch them get out of it somehow, complete with intense emotions and bursts of violence. Even that ending feels so BB5.1’s cliffhanger, fading into important flashback then back to earth-shattering realization.
