I watched the series years ago, and am happy that POP is rerunning it.
This particular episode is so well done in so many ways, it ranks right up there with one of the best of the series. The writers are obviously playing with the audience to the very end, and do so in a most subtle way. The elimination of a major character has been dealt with in various ways on different series. In this case she is killed off. One suspects that Ms Tyler wanted out to pursue other projects. It was a great loss to the program.
