Heartbreak

Season 8 was great in so many ways. As a native Chicagoan perhaps the Cubs' 2016 Championship gave me rose-colored beer-goggles, but their motto, "try not to suck," seemed to be adopted by all cast-and-crew.

Trying to mix levity and gravitas, loyalty and treachery, bravery and stupidity, has mostly yielded positive results.

Jay Ferguson and his music hold it all together.

Especially "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" at the end. I give Jay Ferguson a 10/10 always.

An Absolute Fitting Ending for Miguel Ferrera!

Warning: Spoilers
When I began watching this episode, I came into it knowing that this was going to be the last time we ever saw him on this show...and perhaps the last time we ever saw him again on anything. I knew he had passed away before this was filmed and that all of this must have been computer and voice generated...but it was done perfectly and the ending was the best way to do it too. The writers didn't give him a death scene, but what they did was give him a proper goodbye. The letter to Henrietta, the perfect song at the end...and now every time I hear this song "Knockin on Heaven's Door", I'm going to always think of Owen Granger (Miguel Ferrera) and smile in remembrance of him and know that he is in Heaven and finally resting in peace! Miguel, I'm glad that you got through Heaven's Door and are now looking down upon us and making sure that we are all "safe".
