I've not felt this high an approximation of joy to be done with a show since The Flash

4x12: Done Patrol.

This is the end. Not one of my favorite show finales, but I'm okay with it.

I didn't particularly enjoy this musical episode. Yes, great attention to detail, the singing performances were done well technically, but IMHO other shows did their musical episodes better. https://next-episode.net/the-magicians and https://next-episode.net/star-trek-strange-new-worlds come to mind.
What about you guys?

I usually loathe musicals and musical episodes, for a number of reasons. If nothing else, they usually feel like they are made for the actors more so than the audience. The Strange New Worlds one started out okay, but went on for far too long for my taste. There are only two musical episodes I am actually okay with. The first one is the one on Buffy, because it wasn't just whimsical but serious in parts and actually helped the story along. The second one is now this one, for both a similar reason and the fact that it actually took the (at one point literal) piss out of the premise.

What I really enjoyed about this episode was the ending. Straight up using the main theme for that (and then basically just cutting out) really helped drive the point home. Well done, IMO.

Wow that pizza parlor scene was just all sorts of cringe.

Both, but spoilers are just from 1, and really the first few minutes. i'm just paranoid about spoilers since I once got groused at for mentioning an actor guest starring in an episode, which gave nothing of the plot away.

Thank you. When in doubt, use spoiler tags.

I liked 4x2.

You didn't mention if you'd only watched 4x1 or 4x1 and 4x2, so I won't check those spoilers.

I mostly liked 4x1. Not perfect, but a good (enough) beginning.

I don't recall the "fuck" necklace from previous seasons, is that new? Fits perfectly. It doesn't seem that the show came up with the idea.
