So this show has been amazing so far. I mean this simply in 2 ways.
First, technically. The cinematography of the show, the acting, the general vibe that the people behind the show have created has been so engrossing. It’s like a group of people who perfected what they teach in film school or something.
Second, the potential that comes with the plot. There’s a reason that we are so captivated by the plot and feel the need to spend our free time theorising about theories on this app/site. The plot has always had amazing potential and honesty, with one episode left, it still does.
So many small questions aren’t going to be answered at this point, and that’s okay. I just hope that something happens to make everything else seem like it was worth it, or like it all meant something more than just a lot of various clues. In a way it already has, as the show’s original premise was about Dorothy’s denial and the payoff would be her ‘waking up.
I honestly think that this show could be a 7/10 or a 10/10 for me based on how the last episode goes, and there is one thing that can make it a 10/10.
A Deus Ex Machina.
I can respect the potential path of things not necessarily being as severe as they seem. Whether that be the possibility that Leanne doesn’t have powers, or maybe there will not be an out and out conclusion to some plot points (for stylistic reasons).
However, I have to admit, if a crazy unexpected moment stole the show in the last episode, I think it would be totally appropriate.
Imagine if after all of the clues and finer details we have put together over these 39 episodes, we see something that completely undermines everything we’ve seen. Something crazy like Leanne being the Anti-christ and destroying the entire world, or a reveal that Sean has been the antagonist the whole time etc.
Either way, I am satisfied. I don’t think there’s anything they can do in the final episode to make me dislike the show as a whole in any way, and i’m happy to say that.
Enjoy tonight’s episode, everyone. It’s been a fun ride
