I don't know how to put the spoiler thing up but episode 10 gives the impression of being written in a hurry in a desperate bid to finish everything off.
And yet there were flashes of brilliance. The shredded docs court scene for example. I love a clever sting. First two episodes following over from S1 were a whole different grade to the fairly dull stuff that happened for the rest of it. The occasional good moments didn't make up for the boring bulk were we didn't care about the crime or any of the players involved. It was weak. And the FBI story was mostly filler - most interesting bit of that was seeing how much Anthony Michael Hall has changed since his early film career.
It was still watchable but it wasn't anywhere near to what it has been, and that seems down entirely to the story/writing as all the other components were still there.

I thought that too. I still think of him as Gary from Weird Science...then changed quite a bit as Johnny in The Dead Zone tv series.
He is almost unrecognisable now...but we all get older.
Was good to see a familiar face in the final episode.
