True Detective.
Disappointing finale.
Is it as disappointing as the finale of the Sopranos?Disappointing finale.

I felt True Detective did what it needed to do at the end. It wasn't fab, but I was very happy with it.
As for Sopranos, not sure what else they could have done.

Your spoiler, if enacted, would have been in context with the rest of the series. So that would have been ok with me. I could see why others wouldn't have wanted that, though.As for Sopranos, not sure what else they could have done.

Like I said, I can see why others wouldn't have wanted that. But speaking of what we didn't need to see, that could be said of a great deal of the whole series. I'm not suggesting anyone else should agree, just giving my reasons for my opinion on the matter.
Fair comment.smn159 said:

It does but it's still booooring.
Yep, needs more car chases and explosions. Maybe a couple of giant robots fighting?I guess the serious issue I had was the pacing. Sometimes it rockets along, other times nothing happens. If you want to see a perfectly paced show go watch True Detective or even Game of Thrones. It just felt that many bits of Breaking Bad were paced badly. I think it should have been 4 seasons at most cutting each season down as well.

Though 99% of the time - directors and producers fail. Go figure.
Yes that seems to be the case. I've been getting up to speed with Game of Thrones these last couple of weeks and have to say I nearly gave up by the end of series 3 - couldn't see what the fuss was about at all - but series 4 is gripping. Far more urgency in the script and the whole thing flows better. The Wire ebbed and flowed, as did BB, IIRC. The Shield was pretty consistent though.
