What a daring ending. If only the show hadn't backpedalled!!
The shocking end was unexpected and very scenic, and the mouring of Liz by all the characters in the next two episodes were breathtaking. The writers unfortunately didn't have the guts to kill Liz for real though!
The Kaplan set-up was a total stretch and ruined it all. It is unfortunate, but I think all characters and spectators were about to get past her death. To see her back later on is ridiculous.
