This was odd for a mid-season finale. Usually those are explosive and involve a lot of feelings and people (Neal) jumping over things. This one was just full of yap. Ten minutes before it ended I was looking at my watch and thinking this thing's going to end soon and nothing special has happened.
See, that was precisely what I liked about this episode. I *liked* that there was so much discussion happening. Last year's ms finale was overstuffed with action, but nothing that was significant to me was happening. That was the ep where *I* kept looking at my watch waiting ofr something meaningful to happen. :) Everything that I cared about was ignored for this hyperactive stunt-fest. For me, that stuff is all flash and no substance. I liked how quiet this one was, and I liked that we stuck with drama instead of melodrama.
