4/10
It is getting worst
25 February 2022
Warning: Spoilers
There is a notable change from the first two seasons to these last two. We can see that the writers are not working on the characters anymore, but rather on the message they want to give. This is an important change. When you focus on this story and the characters, they guide you. But this episode is a clear demonstration of an effort to adequate the story and the characters to the message the writers are trying to preach. This is an episode extracted from motivational speeches and social media empowering memes. Beth was never well built, but this episode ruined her. It seems that all Jack's children are going too far from the tree. Jack died as a real human being, not being able to resolve his issues with his mom, his dad and his brother, but yet doing the possible with his life, dying heroically. His children, well, they are millennials trying to resolve all their psychological issues believing this is the only way to true happiness. They need to talk to people in the past, they need to confront, they need to spend all their energy and time trying to change the people see them. They rarely change themselves, rather they want the world to change and accept them.

Also, it is annoying how they are trying to force a reason to Kate leave Toby. He was able to support her through all her countless hard moments, but she is now frustrated because he works too much.

So, well, this was a good journey with two or three good seasons, but it is over now.
