Too optimistic, yet...
28 October 2023
Warning: Spoilers
That is my one complaint about this final season: It is too optimistic. Yet I like it. I have been watching the show since the very first season. I love the casting and colours.

One thing I did not like, the "they/them" situation. In real life, the police would have started to look for multiple people in search of Cal in episode seven.

Before I start talking about Otis & Maeve, I have to mention my favourite character arches belong to Eric & Adam. To be honest, I like it when they deal with Adam's character development apart from the main crew. I do not know why they did it, but I liked it. Sometimes, you need some space from others, and, yes, even though you are a man, you have feelings. I know many people think otherwise.

They gave us nice conclusions for many characters hinting longer and deeper stories, which I wish I could watch in "a" season five some 5 or 10 years later...

Maybe?..

As for Otis & Maeve, the letter at the end might sound cheesy, but I received a letter like that in real life, as well. Not in the age of internet and social media, of course. I received a letter like that when I was 18.

In 2001.

High school had just been finished and we had taken the exam for university. The content was very similar. It was not a love letter, I thought, and I still think so.

Had I not experienced something similar, I would have thought the ending was phony and cheesy.
