OMG ok watched the Killjoys finale

I want to post about it in detail as I have thoughts!! But I also know how tired I am and that it is the kinda thing that I probably won’t get round to so short version!

Incredibly well executed and it was as a perfect happy ending as they could make it. So TV execs take note this is what made it so good:

– ZERO character deaths

– hints at the adventures the characters will continue to have even though we aren’t watching

– sooooo many callbacks, they really tried to make sure nobody was forgotten

– our heroes won the day so there is a feeling of victory

The smile on my face might be bittersweet because I am genuinely sad that there will be no more Killjoys episodes but the smile is most definitely there.

It would have been so easy for them to have killed off one of the big 3 to prove the cost of war. Usually TV people think if they don’t kill someone off then the stakes won’t feel high – rubbish! This is TV, I can believe in the stakes without my heart being shattered.

Well with Killjoys my heart was safe. Sure there are things I wish they had explored more, and the whole Pippin resurrection thing was very fast, but I forgive them that because it made Zeph happy – it meant no character was left out of the happy ending. I mean Johnny didn’t get Pawter back 🙁 but he’s got Lucy and Clara and a life which is something.

I don’t know. I just thought it was really good.
