As good a time as any to say it: This. Fucking. Show.
Part TV episode, part meditation on life and love. Perhaps because it started near the end, I was never really worried about the end. I was just in the moment, the message was clear, and it was beautiful. Great work by all involved. A smaller thing I love is the flashes at the beginning, a specter of 6,741 still present.

The guys were right: this was very satisfying. Glad I stuck around with the show since it started, & met all of you guys here. See you all in the Westworld board!
This segment from the IGN interview is just too damn much.

This. Fucking. Show.
I'm still not over it. I was hoping that i won't feel empty after the episode; I was hoping Life is Strange was the only medium that'll leave me feeling empty for this year. But dammit, i did feel empty after this episode; still feeling it now. Ugh, i hate that feeling. I have to slap myself many times to stop feeling empty lol.
Anyway, my thoughts: Perfection. This. Fucking. Show.

There's a kind of odd parallel between the two best episodes of this season (return 0 and The Day The World Went Away). Namely, if we ignore the non-linear structure of the finale, events proceed in quite a similar fashion, i.e. massive buildup to a character death. However, where Callahan & Melissa ratchet up the tension even further, Nolan and Thé almost go to a denouement of sorts, which is fitting since it is the series finale. And oh does it work. I think this is the season with the most 10s from IGN, and deservedly so. Fisher's direction, in the two part premiere to 6, 741 to this has remained immaculate. Seriously, he has really, really stepped up this season. The blocking, the lighting, the acting...it's all so smooth and so professional and just perfect.
Thank you to all involved with this fantastic show. Thank you to all you guys here; as I said earlier, it's been a true pleasure.

Just beautiful. Also Ramin Djawadi man, take a bow. I have been following this show since it was first announced so this is very bittersweet. Thanks Jonah Nolan. Also a bit selfish on my part but I loved that Reese got to have his big damn hero moment in this episode. And I thought JC was really very good here.
Oh and great to see you back Riddick.

Though the writing has been for the most part very strong over the past 2 seasons, this one made me realize just how much better & intense it can get, when an episode's personally scripted by Jonathan Nolan himself. The sheer amount of callbacks, book ends, structuring, the whole nine yards. This is a guy who knows his characters & the world he built very well, & treats them with absolute respect. Put him up with Denise Thé, another powerful storyteller, & the results are nothing short of extra-ordinary. Let Chris Fisher execute their vision, & you pretty much reach the television equivalent of an orgasm.
Can only imagine how much this gets elevated with Westworld (& eventually, Foundation), where Nolan scripted more than half of the season (6 episodes, if I'm correct). The series finale, besides giving me tons of feels, amped up my excitement for just how much Jonah can do with the subject of AI (that rooftop scene completely surpassed my expectations; major props to Amy, Michael, & Jim) when he's not bogged down by commercial restraints.
The score from Reese's final scene.
An interview Emerson did before the finale aired.
