I’d just like to go on record as saying this show continues to amaze me. Unfortunately, due to a horrendous work schedule, I only managed to see a few episodes this season, I did catch tonights season finale, and I was just floored.

At times my scalp was tingling, eyes tearing and I realized I was holding my breath.

I hope to see all the rerun episodes I missed this year, because I feel this is the single best show on TV right now (followed closely by Battlestar, but hey).

Anyone catch what song that was at the end of the episode? Sounded like Bruce Springsteen.

If the show is not renewed, at least they went out at the top of their game.

Overall this season was weaker than the first, but there were a couple of stellar episodes. This one was great - I’ll be very disappointed if it is not picked up for next year.

It was Bruce. The song was **Trapped** , a cover of a Jimmy Cliff song. Springsteen’s version originally appeared on the **USA For Africa** compilation in 1985.
