Intense.

Best episode of the series thus far. Much better than last season's finale. Every character, every story line was on point. I just wish Aunt Vi had a little more to do; otherwise this episode took the entire series to the next level. I am very thankful we get at least two more seasons of Robyn McCall. Kudos to the entire cast and crew.

Great episode...until it wasn't

Excellent treatment of revenge porn as a serious problem, interlaced with one of the show's usual terrorism plots, and even a timely political reference.

All that was fine until the very end, when they closed the season with on an over-the-top cliffhanger. Unpardonable. First, the series was officially renewed only three days before air date. That means they were ready to leave fans in the lurch at a terrible point for characters we followed if they'd been dropped.

Second, the idea of ending a network broadcast season this way is more of a betrayal now than in the days of "Who Shot J. R.?", and its many imitators. The difference is the existence of streaming alternatives. Viewers can now make INFORMED choices about when to watch any series, Those who like closure can wait until the whole package is in hand. No wonder networks' viewership is shrinking. No respect for those who still tune it.
