Oh weird. Everything I'd seen said there would only be 10 episodes, like all previous seasons. I even did a quick Google search that confirmed 10 episodes. Now I see it's 11... weird.

So yeah, not penultimate. That helps. This story arch might need 2 more hours to figure itself out.

As an added bonus for me, I'm not going to get to watch ep 10 until the week after it airs. So I'll be able to watch the final two episodes as one piece. That'll be nice.

All right. Everything's set. The last episode should be pretty damn good.

i couldn't believe Salvatore's mishap. And when his skull opened up, I laughed out loud.

It was more the circumstances than the consequences.

In a way that kind of felt like a season finale.
Yeah, Gaetano's storyline was not one I would have guessed but he did a slapstick fall on some ice earlier which I guess can now be seen as foreshadowing?

Sorry, that should be Gaetano, not his real-life name Salvatore.

Wow, that was a quick finale.
It wasn’t a bad season but simply not on the stellar level of the first two. There were definitely some moments but I never got all in.

I thought it ended pretty well.
Spoiler: show
I knew after the war, with Loy realizing he may not have it so bad, after all, he was doomed. His story was not going to have a happy ending. Good call, kreng.
And nice coda.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I really liked it. Tied into a couple of the other seasons too.

First season was amazing, second a solid follow up, and third more uneven, but had some excellent moments. Fourth nowhere near the other three. By now I had almost forgotten about the show. Hope for a return to form.

I see. I know a few people irl as well, that only stream using netflix. They probably have some local Norwegian channel for news and big sporting events, but if we are ever talking about movies or series, it pretty much has to be from Netflix or a big cinema movie, for them to interact.

Agreed. Seeing Rock pull of a dramatic role was great and it gave a great backstory to Mike Milligan
