On this day, this series jumped the shark
23 December 2010 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

In this episode, this series jumped the shark, by having the devil appear, complete with the appropriate Rolling Stones song to play out the end of the episode, and the last show of the series. A disappointing ending to a great television show. I guess we have to realize that the show was written be people, not by God, and sometimes people just run out of ideas.

When the devil appears to fight a potentially apocalyptic battle with a 16 year old girl, and no one realizes its the devil, including characters who had previously displayed a good deal of perception and complexity, other than the fact that they don't realize that the 16 year old girl in their midst speaks directly with God-well, it just strains the suspension of disbelief.

That being said, I still miss this show. It was so good, it left me wanting more.
