My only complaint echoes what other people have said: it sure could have used an extra episode or two to help that finale hit harder. We'll probably see some flashbacks and development for both these characters that will help to round out Joel's motivations and detachment, but it would have been better served to have that with some extra screen time this year.
Either way I'm hooked, HBO. Great job.

HBO cut the episode length for the finale, which is very unusual. They could have easily spent an extra 5-10 minutes of low budget time building up/explaining Joel's motivations for his killing spree.
