My husband and I enjoyed the first 2 seasons (which is why I give it a 4 and not a 1). Then really weird stuff started happening: 1) the writing got bad;2) too many Allys (4 in all); 3) what the heck happened to the Woodcocks?? No explanation whatsoever! How about just a "they moved" explanation? How hard would that have been to write into the script??; 4) Kenny had been living with them (with no explanation why for about 4-5 episodes, then all of a sudden, they have the episode explaining why Kenny is living with them. I haven't gotten to the Ally's pregnant one yet, but I hear it was done in the same vein; and 5) it got not-funny and very mean-spirited. I'm guessing the husband and wife writing team were headed for divorce, and that's how they were feeling and wrote the scripts the same way: MEAN AND NASTY! We're in the 4th season now, and I can't wait for it to be over with. My husband thinks the show is going to get better. He thinks it can't get any worse, but I beg to differ. I cringe every night thinking he's going to want to watch another episode. I have him play it last at night so in case I fall asleep, nothing lost on that show! UGH!! Too bad, because it had SO much potential, and I really did enjoy the heck out of it the first 2 seasons. After that, a waste of time and space.

The end. Finally!

Warning: Spoilers
'Til Death is a fascinating show because it went through so many changes throughout its 4 year run, for better or worse. So much retooling, so many recasting's.
Here though is the last episode and they were really limping to the finish line by this point.
It's an episode of some good moments, but the clash between raunchy and family humour is jarring.
Ultimately this show could never really work out what it wanted to be about.
