Even though apart from episode 3 of this season I didn't really think other episodes were par for the course with the first 9 or 10 seasons, I actually enjoyed this episode a lot.
And of course, this finale is full of member berries and "remember this?", but this episode also has its own plotlines that affect the final outcome and I think this episode is really funny from start to finish.
Seinfeld has been mentioned a lot throughout this final season, and even though I haven't seen it yet, you can really tell what its finale might have been and why it's considered bad. Since I haven't watched that show, I can't really comment on the references and how this show ended and all that.
But I'm personally satisfied with how they wrapped everything up here and did some flashbacks to a time when this show was the peak of hilariousness.
Something that kinda disappointed me was that I was kinda expecting a final scene where everything comes together as the result of a hilarious misunderstanding or something like that final restaurant scene where everyone was cursing. But we got a generic one instead. Nevertheless, it was still funny.
I wish the role of Cynthia was a lot bigger because I expected bigger consequences from that plotline, but oh well.
I don't really remember the old season of Curb that well since I watched them a long time ago, and I haven't even watched Seinfeld yet. So don't think I'm giving it a high rating out of nostalgia and the references. I genuinely think this episode was funny (still not as funny as the first 9 seasons), and yeah, some of the funny stuff were the references to the funnier flashbacks, but this episode had new funny stuff and hilarious lines of dialogue too.
So overall, this is definitely the funniest episode of this underwhelming final season (I gave it an 8 at first but then I realized I gave ep 3 a 9, and this is better, so...) and a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good finale to the show as a whole.
This show is still my favorite comedy show I've ever seen (even after watching Always Sunny recently) despite the last two seasons, especially the final season, not being even close to the funniness and the genius of the first 10 seasons.
Definitely watch this show if you haven't because it's one of the funniest shows ever, and don't let the low ratings of the last two seasons dissuade you from starting it, because the finale wraps up everything pretty, pretty, pretty good and it's worth finishing it.
