Gotta say, I wasn’t expecting the latest season of The Other Two to be it’s final season. It seemed like it finally found a larger audience with its second season move to HBO Max, and I don’t know that anyone else involved was expecting the end either. Word on the gossip street was that the series creators and writers created a pretty toxic work environment that involved verbal abuse and possibly harassment. Who knows? What I do know is that this final season was just as meta and hilarious as the others.

Succession Final Season Review
Why are all the good shows ending?! Yes, like many fans, I too am upset that this is the end of Succession, but I appreciate the fact that the showrunners know when to end a story before ruining it.
Read moreBarry – Final Season Review
As much as I respect the creators of Barry, and many others (more reviews to come), for ending the series on their own terms, it still sucks that it’s ending!
Read moreDead to Me – Final Season Review
It feels like a lifetime has passed since the second season of Dead to Me came out on Netflix. To be fair a pandemic and Christina Applegate’s MS diagnosis surely put a hindrance on things. Although, it sounds like everyone besides Applegate was fine not finishing the series out, but she insisted the story needed an ending.
Read moreDickinson – Final Season Review
When I learned that the latest and third season of Apple+’s Dickinson was going to be its final season, I was devastated. Truly! This was a series I reluctantly clicked on back when it first aired, but was almost immediately sucked in. Creator Alena Smith managed to take the 1800s and make it both modern but extremely true to its roots. Plus, it was about the famed poet Emily Dickinson, so perhaps that’s why I got suckered into this enigmatic series.

I’ve officially met the end of the road for another world renouned comedy. It’s been a long time coming, but Silicon Valley has finally become a part of my life and I am happier for it! Seriously, this show produced a lot of laughs and I really couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Unfortunately, the second season of Showtime’s Kidding is its last and I am bummed because the second season was a very entertaining ride. Luckily, that first season cliffhanger is right where the action picks up in the second, and we get to see this group of people seemingly further upend their lives.

Read moreMr. Robot: Season 4, Episode 11 “eXit”
The penultimate episode of Mr. Robot aired, and once again, I am still so confused as to how this can end!!! “Exit” showed some seriously powerful monologues and a WTF ending that has me on the edge of my seat for next week’s two hour series finale.
We open a little backwards in time, with Darlene and Elliot’s sentimental hug goodbye. He also bids Mr. Robot an emotional farewell. Then he’s off to the power plant to shut Whiterose’s project for good. But of course, we left off with Whiterose seemingly going to meet her end with the FBI raiding her home, but you’re a fool if you think the Dark Army doesn’t have her back.
Back at the power plant, Elliot just finishes kicking off the job that should shut it down for good when some Dark Army cronies grab him and lead him through halls of bodies before depositing him in a dark lit room with two computers and a fish. It’s the exact same place where Whiterose spoke with Angela. Whiterose enters, seemingly thrilled to finally get Elliot face-to-face.
They both deliver some pretty powerful speeches, but BD Wong acted his pants off in this extended scene! Recognize the man! Elliot shares that he still has hope in humanity because there are people in this world who can give him what he can’t give himself: love. Whiterose tells him they can go back and make it all better before blowing her brains out. The power plant is about to meltdown, but Elliot finds a game that he’s sure can make it all stop.
Mr. Robot tries to save him, but Elliot is convinced this is it. As the screen fades to red, we are then introduced to parallel-universe Elliot who has his sh** together and is getting married to Angela, has a loving relationship with his father, and is CEO of Allsafe. He meets with F-Corp’s leader, Tyrell (!!!), who wants to know if Elliot is with him, to which he replys, “always.” Everything in this world seems dandy, except for frequent migraines that Elliot’s been getting, but it’s of no concern to him.
As Elliot heads home at the end of the day he’s met with his typical, hooded self at the computer, to which he’s asks, as he’s been asking all along, “Who are you?”
Well, I for one am beyond excited to see how this ends! We still don’t know who that other personality is, and where the heck is Darlene in this alternate universe?! WHAT WILL HAPPEN??? Only a few more days until we find out.
