Like so many of you, I expected it to be so much worse so I was fine with it. It is forgettable which is good because then I can continue to watch old favorites without thinking about how it ends. @Slovenly Muse, your last post summed up how I feel. Someone asked upthread why the Purge masks on the vamps. Was thinking maybe Covid. An added layer of just in case protection. Like Dean, and probably Jensen, I’m just so glad this show is over so I can be done. Can someone link me to the interview where the boys talk about their feelings on the finale?

Amen.

Yes. After I cried—not during the show because I was just in shock—during the first of Jason’s many “don’t be mad at Rob, it’s for the good of the show” videos, I felt a sense of relief. I had an unhealthy obsession with this show for many years and now I can let go. It’s not the show I loved anymore.

I feel this way too and suspect the only reason Rob did not do this was 1) because as Diane said in one interview, he had his mind made up that this was what had to happen and no one was going to budge him on it and 2) he did not want to have to field Logan questions in interviews for the rest of the hypothetical run. This was the coward’s way out of resetting her reality. But like you said, Logan could have left her and that would have been interesting. She is so messed up that even her homme fatale grew up and moved on! Then she could leave Neptune and be forced to finally take a hard look at herself. By killing him Rob is saying “I don’t want to have to explain why Jason isn’t in the next season.” And then when S4 is panned by fans he can blame it on shipper madness. Dude, you wanted to write a spin-off. It’s ok. Just admit what it is. Don’t drag us into your eight episode pitch and then leave a bomb in our backseat.
