I'd come to expect little of the show in the later years, and mostly sleepwatched it for the last couple, just perking up for bewbies or Northman badassery.
But the finale, though it went in irritating directions telegraphed eons ago, and had a shit ton of logical inconsistencies [Bill is near death, but digs his own grave back up with a plain ol' spade. if he's ok with being staked to death, why not just lie there and wait for morning], it was overall surprisingly moving and touching.
And of course they had to do the vampires=gay and evangelicals get eternal punishment one last time heading out the door, but hey that's Alan Ball if that's blindsiding you at this point, wow.
But **** Zep over closing scene. Maybe they paid for it, but the show didn't earn it. P-Diddy earned Kashmir more than TB earned TY.
