Big bump as I finally finished the series and the film. Have to say this is one of my favorite TV shows ever, maybe only second to Mad Men. Can’t believe it took me this long to get to it.
As for the film, beautiful is the word that comes to mind. I like the way not everything was wrapped in a pretty bow and no doubt the victory over Hearst was more symbolic. But as a finale, I’d say it’s one of the best I’ve ever seen. Actually probably the very best.
Hearst is an incredible villain, as someone else said, one of the best ever on TV.
I want to grow up to be Seth Bullock.
Al and Don Draper are two of the most interesting characters ever conceived. Incredibly written and acted.
And I might be in love with Alma.
What a show.
