My guess is that I am probably the last person watching this show - and from day one, it was just a mindless, guilty pleasure on my part, but every season has sunk lower than the next and I am not exactly surprised to see this show end.

I do give Fox credit for at least showing the final episodes, on TV and not on YouTube or something. Plus, they claim the last episode is a real wrap-up of the series, not just the last episode they happened to have filmed.

Wow. I thought the whole thing had been revitalized with Marissa’s death, and that they were stronger than ever…

It feels like the end of an era, almost.

Aaagghh! I was so digging Taylor as main character! I accept that it wasn’t going to make it into another season, but to be cancelled in February? How… FOX!

That was the lamest death scene ever.
