Great five and a half seasons, but the second half of six left me asking why do so many great series tend to end badly. Usually as a result of some ego driven director.
Black and white, seriously? Looked like a final project for a NYU film school grad. And the way they bounced around the time line was confusing.
God bless em for throwing a little work Carol Burnett's way. Life long fan.
But oh my god, Kim's story arc? Five and a half years I, like many I imagine had the serious hots for the clever blond pony tailed vixen. Not very charitable of the writers to takes her esthetic from a 10 to a 2 at the end of the series considering she'll be looking for new work now.
The last several episodes were meandering and ineffectual. I feel bad for the character son of Carol Burnett. If Carol hadn't ID'd Saul and set those wheels into motion that son would have got off due to lack of evidence.
But now, he'll be going away for long time for all the stuff he was in on with Saul. So again, not a very cheery story arc for Carol who will die with her son in prison.
All in all, I think it could have ended better. But I did find it poignant that 'Jimmy' s last act was to throw away his brilliantly engineered 7 year bit for an 86 year stretch in order to save Kim.
