This finale was extremely entertaining . . . but it wasn't satisfying. But can there be a satisfying end to such a beautiful complicated mess of a show? Probably not. The world is better for having this little wrapup, even if it was rushed and bottled.Dropped plot threads: Capheus's election (and all the senseates he met!), Lito's Hollywood career, Sun's brother, Rajan snitching on Ajay, Sebastian, Lila's cluster and their motivations . . . There's lots of new fun to be milked from what we do get, though, and I'm astonished that the lovely chemistry extends to actors who have never been in a scene together. Dani continues to be impressive in everything she does, Bug speaks all the languages, and the pure unbridled joy on Felix's face when he bonds with Rajan over being in the hospital (?).We could have done without Wolfgang's mom's trauma, but the bulk of the finale seems to be focused on gathering everyone together and finally giving us a timeline of Aneglica's journey. Jonas unfortunately gets sidelined, and we also learn about the Lacuna and what Whispers is really up to.The action fizzles but the emotional ending scene was perfect, bringing everyone together for a promise of a brighter future. Also, no one does an orgy scene like the Wachowski sisters.Goodbye, sensates.P.S. I WAS TOTALLY RIGHT ABOUT RAJAN!!!!!

2x07 There's No Room in My Heart for Hate
Well guys, we've come to a realization. As much fun and interesting as this show is, the fact that it has been cancelled has cast a shadow over our little project. Bitches is frustrated and wants to talk about the plot threads that won't get resolved, and she can't reveal to me which ones they are.This sucks.So, we're going to be doing a single megasode on the rest of the season, before diving back into Buffy/Angel. We're just as dissapointted as you, but, well, we've also had a listener dropoff, so I guess the market has spoken.See you guys in two weeks!
