The finale pulled off both feeling rushed and a bit plodding?

Not quite related but every planet there feels like it been mostly abandoned… deserted.

Good point. I thought it was just being cheap on spending for the extras, but it does make sense. Which doesn’t mean it wasn’t their saving the budget for the effects!
