No it didn't work for me at all. I don't even know what he seemed like in the end. None of it truly makes sense to me. And right now I honestly can't think of another show (save for Lost) where the reveals have been more disappointing than this.

Yeah I'm not sure it's that clever either. I was also bothered by her end. The whole thing is just a huge step backwards. So she kills herself? WHY? Just... GIVE ME A BREAK. Gargh.

Anyway, I would probably agree that I get more out of this show by talking about it -- but then again I haven't really talked about it much lately, lol.
