So what do you think of the final G/E episode of Season 8?

I gave it a D....not an F because sadly I do believe there have been worse episodes.
BUT, the D is for being shown out of order, for being sub-par in quality in the first place, and for having no business being shown as the "finale" for G/E.
I am sick and tired of the outright sloppiness.

Rating it as a regular episode and not as the season finale (as it is not -- Revolution is), I gave the episode a B. It wasn't great but I thought it was good. The aria was a bit of a let down, Eames' vice partner didn't really do much, but it was better than the lackluster "All In"

An F from me because I can't remember a worse episode (not even an Antoinette Stella) -- and because the legendary, award-winning scenarist (and G/E showrunner) Walon Green must have known (before filming) he did a bad, bad thing.

It was an ok episode - disappointing - but ok.
I dithered between giving it a C or D but have opted for the D as I started clock-watching towards the end.

I feel like I'm gonna be hung, drawn and quartered for this. But I'm giving it a B. Because despite a few flaws in the plot, I enjoyed the episode. It had great character moments and the crime-solving was interesting enough for me.
Also, more spectacular Eames stuff here. She's just been solid this season

I also didn't find it to bad. But I'll never be able to watch it again.

I was about to go with "C," but voted "B" for the sheer audacity...that male envy thing.

Welll, as I wrote, I seem to have seen another episode entirely. I gave it a B. And when I have some moments I'll try to put up a defense for it.

I too gave it a B. Didn't think it was finale worthy, but solid enough. Erbe was great too. Good writing for her in this one and this season.

I gave the episode a C which is terrible for me. A part of that is the ridiculous decision to make this lame episode the last one for G/E this season. Why? There is no logical reason for it. VDO couldn't have looked worst or acted more bored. This is how we're supposed to remember him for next season?

I didn't take Mr. D'Onofrio's performance as being bored. I though he was portraying Goren as cautious, which, given Ross' temperment and the high profile of the case, was understandable.
But then, as we all know, I'm too easy on everyone and everything.

I gave a D, it would have been an F, but Eames was great. The rest was just so bad!

I don't think I have ever given Goren a C or maybe I have lately, this should have been a D but the Beard being back added extra points, lol.

But . . . will I ever be able to enjoy this season again? Patcat, stay strong, I need some positivism here!
