Yah, it was a bit hit and miss for me. The end of Bloody Face seemed too easy...

If Bloody Face had survived, out there, lurking...

Completely agree - Don't get me wrong, I thought their confrontation was incredible... But the end seemed to... easy.

I think that's what part of my issue is... While I think of how the different storylines wrapped up in the last episode, they all make sense - I think that, while not predictable, they all reached a very logical conclusion.

But since this season has been so much about insanity and especially flirting with the concept of the Unreliable (and insane) narrator, I didn't think that the end would be so "neat."

Not sure if I'm expressing myself correctly, but for example...

When Sister Jude finds out that she had been in the asylum for YEARS instead of a couple of months and that the Pinhead was dead... It was so incredibly disorienting... That's how I envisioned the ultimate conclusion being... Incredibly disorienting, dizzying, and thought-provoking.


This was all too neat and tied up - Like an odd epilogue. I find it rather confounding.

That being said, Sister Jude bonding with the Star Children was just so lovely.

What I mean by the angel of death is when she came back as a patient or prisoner. I didn't really get that whole thing.

Meh. They completely missed the Star Children bit.

I enjoyed this season but I really think they threw in way too much. Could have done without the whole alien scenario IMO

Agreed.

I think the reason it felt like it fizzled is because of the Bloodyface Jr. storyline. It was really clipped; there wasn't much to it in the way of a rounded story. They never really took the time to develop it much, and then it had to end when the season did.

A much better finale than the first season. At least it kept the tone of the rest of the series unlike the Beetlejuice bullshit that totally ruined the first season for me.

I liked the "neatness" of it all as it felt like coming out of a cloud of insanity and arriving somewhere more coherent (perhaps just like the characters themselves).

I agree with the others here about the ending. It was just so so for me.
