To Be Honest The Ending Kind Of Made Me Mad in a Way... Sorry this is going to spoil the ending for all you guys who have not seen the final episode. It Made Cry That Brian and Justin Ended Up Not getting married because towards their wedding they decided that neither one of them was happy that the other was sacrificing their life for the other which is totally true. Also justin said that they didnt need rings or vows to prove to eachother that they love one another which is true so justin moves to new york to do his art thing and brian stays in pittsburgh. Thats not what made me sad though , Its the fact that during the final scene Michael Takes Brian to whats Left of bombed Bablyon and they get on the dancing platform and dance to nothing then the room starts spinning and babylon has been re-opened the proud song is playing but its remixed which is awesome and its also the song thy played in the first episode but alas you see everyone else dancing with someone , Michael With Ben, Emmet with some other guy And ted with BLake. And it made me sad to see brian dancing alone, i did realize though that even though justin was gone they made another deal not to forget eachother and love eachother blahblahblah but then agin brian was a huge asshole to justin most of the time so karma right? well anyways all in all its was an ok ending...

I keep praying that the gods grant my wish for a reunion. Finally there was a show that 'showed' it all, without apology and without regret. I still watch the DVDs on Sunday nights because nothing else compares. The characters were real, I have friends who mirrored several of the characters.

Emmett is a brilliant actor and I wish his character had more substance in the last season. Justin and Brian, I am glad Justin moved on....how many of us actually stay with our first love. Don't know if I would have send the lesbians off to Canada, but one thing is for sure, they would have be sent off to somewhere on this planet.

So I will continue to say my prayers to the Gods, grant my wish of a reunion because nothing compares. The writers did a great job with this one...now if only they could provide some guidance to the team responsible for the "L Word".

If not for the sex and hot looks of some of the cast, the acting of Hal Sparks, Sharon Gless and Peter Paige this senseless drivel never would have made it. The British version, though devoid of the beautiful faces and bigger budget, was and is far better if a gay soap with merit is your thing. Our U.S. version is a pale imitation. Written poorer than the worst episode of a short lived daytime soap, this dreck carried young gay men for far too many seasons. While a handful of the older cast members not named above seemed to improve their characterizations over time, the younger ones were as cardboard from the get go as they were to the end. Why did I keep watching? I kept hoping it could rise to the level of a Tales of the City or comparable well written, well acted and well directed films or series. But no, it never rose above mediocrity despite all efforts of those trying. The best we as a community can hope for is this sort of crap can be relagated to the indie market. If Hollywood wants to reach us on a large scale, try quality not sensationalism, schmaltzy glitz and tired storylines, barely acted and definitely not directed, by those worthy of consideration by the serious film and telvision industry.

I for one loved how the series ended. Most people don't like the fact of how things were presented in terms of relationships ending, solidifying, etc. But, I loved it all on its own. The fact that Justin moves on is brilliant. Most of us would have never expected that. But, it works-- Brian was his first true love. How many of us have been there? Only to realize in the end, it was finally, this time for good, the moment we needed to move on and grow for ourselves? We have all felt that kind of confused heartbreak... unsure of what to do, but knowing it had to be done... Brian, on a pedestal above the crowds of Babylon... alone... not the focus of everyone's attention. He has stayed in his NEVERLAND-- where he will never grow-up. He is the Peter Pan many gay guys try to become or already are... surrounded by crowds of people, yet alone... never growing up and moving on to bigger and better things. The bombings, the darkness, everything-- great. I think most people just like a happy ending. And, with this season, there are some happy endings and there are some downright sad endings... Take it or leave it, but I felt this was a great way to end the series...

I had been warned the last season was too dark and would underwhelm me, besides. But I LOVED it! My one complaint is that a few things happened too fast in the last two episodes (I think Emmett deserved a bit more meaty resolution), but I loved the Justin-Brian finale . . . I'm still writing the ending different ways in my head. I've not seen the alternate ending yet (I'm letting everything settle and I need to get my life back), but I kinda liked it the way it was. I'm gonna miss those guys!
