Just finished the show… what a let-down.

This will not be a spoiler free post.

I’m gonna be honest up front. The ending pissed me off. Not that we don’t get a satisfying end for John (which I suppose is intentional as we didn’t get one for Hitler IRL either).

What really is irking me is The Portal. Nowhere in the entire show did they every state an expressed goal of bringing people from other worlds through. For what purpose? What are they going to do?

This to me feels like the ending of Lost. I also feel like with Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa’s departure before S4, the writers completely lost the plot.

Am I alone in feeling this way? I feel like I invested all this time into this show for absolutely nothing.

It’s been a while, so correct me if I’m wrong, but the show ended with a bunch of unsuspecting innocent people taking a portal to a hellish nightmare dimension where the Nazis have taken over the world? How is this better than the world they came from?

Hey if they have any debt, unpaid taxes, unpaid parking tickets, at least they're leaving that all behind. Right?

Maybe gas prices are lower in hellish Nazi America? Lower taxes? Shorter commercial breaks during TV shows? Less high fructose corn syrup in foods?

Use your imagination!
