Overall I was disappointed at the ending and lack of character development. So many questions left unanswered - Limbo's death, the group of friend's regrets over his death, why the tight knit group had fallen out over the years. There were so many opportunities to explore the relationships at a more meaningful level in the flashbacks to develop the present day characters. The 2 main women characters were over-sentimental and how did Noodle's wife have such close relationship with Tully's wife if they lived in different cities? Also some of the timeline was out. April Skies was playing in the nightclub scene and that didn't come out until the late 80's. So many close-ups and Tully didn't really look like he was even dying. The actors who made up the group of friends didn't look to be the same age. The ending was such a let down. First half of the first episode was really good but then it slowly seemed more and more over-sentimental and nostalgic. The flashbacks were well done but why weren't the group of friends central to the plot instead of just 2 of them? Where did the wives come into it. Just not a satisfying plot.
