Not having read or heard anything about it...








...i assume the little smile he gave at the end doing the yoga then immediately transitioning to the most famous Coke commercial implies he was back up to his old tricks without say as much.

thought overall it was a nice ending for the series.

yeah that's the overwhelming consensus. At first I wasn't quite sure but with everybody being so adamant about it I wound up agreeing that it's probably a no brainer.

I liked the menacing foreboding in several scenes - the loose plate glass window, a lot of the long boring driving scenes where it seemed like a tragic accident was coming at any moment, the phonebook / hotel scene out in the middle of nowhere.... Thought Donny might have been a goner quite a few times, and was much happier with this ending.

Still wanted to see Sal the gay make a cameo instead of fricking Duck and still don't really buy Pete and Trudy ending up that way. I think Pete should have been shown as trying (and being relatively unsuccessful) to follow in Roger and Don's womanizing ways since he obviously looked up to them both so much. I also hated Don chasing that ugly waitress all over the country. Not believable, he's tapped women 5 times hotter than that... was a weak part of the story IMO.

I thought it was him finding balance in his life. Yes, he's up to his old advertising tricks as he is the best in the business but instead of constantly searching for happiness in his life, he found it at that retreat by realizing he's a ketchup bottle.
