Day 22 - Favorite series finale:

"Sonata" (Moonlight)











To be honest I haven't seen all that many series finales, and of those I have seen there are usually some kind of flaws or problems that make it hard to say they are a favorite. I did really love the The Tudors series finale I recently saw, but I think that the Moonlight finale is still my favorite, especially considering that it was made before they even knew whether they were canceled or not--making its quality all that much more impressive! I'd say it's my favorite episode of the series, which I can't say of any other series finale I've seen yet...

It was just so well done, both in the exciting plotline that brought together all the wonderful vampire society we had met over the course of the show (I loved seeing Logan and Guillermo and Josef and the Cleaner all together at Mick's place having a meeting and planning that heist, as well as it's execution) and dealt with the whole "dangers of exposure of the vampire society" storyline I enjoyed so much, and in its lovely and sweet resolution of the Mick/Beth romantic storyline. I was SO relieved when Mick went back for her, and loved the scene when he is able to recount exactly what she was wearing that day, and when they kiss! :)  And the memorable use of the song "Love Remains the Same" too...Gah!  Such a happy ending for them, very satisfying....that was in fact the most satisfying finale of the season for me, of all my shows! I gave up Jersey Boy tickets to see this episode live, and I don't regret it for a moment...

There was the one loose end with the list of vampire names, but since I have read what was planned fro that storyline since it doesn't bother me so much (since it's not a mystery anymore), and I loved the excitement it brought. (Plus the list of names is really lulzy if you look closely at it, all the random names included of famous people, and the fact that it's a small section repeated over and over again!) :p This finale just had it all--excitement, emotions, drama, humor (especially Logan with his "Leeroy Jenkins!" and "Can my code name be "Lando Calrissian?"). Even the title was just perfect, especially for a finale (though it took me an embarrassingly long time and some YouTube surfing for clips from the Moonlight epp Sonata to 'get it,' lol)...This episode made me happy, because it was so satisfying, but it also made me sad and angrier at CBS than ever for cutting short such a wonderful show when it still had so much potential...*sigh*

Also, I know everyone else is saying it too, but please don't cross-post any content from my journal to Facebook or Twitter...hopefully LJ will get rid of this stupid and invasive feature soon, but until then...:(

the tudors, vampires, cbs sucks, tv shows, meme, moonlight, mick/beth
