What a great season finale to cap off a brilliant first season. It's definitely one of my favorite first seasons along with, just off the top of my head, Dexter, The L Word, 24, Breaking Bad, Alias, Lost. Amanda coming back pregnant just as Emily was about to tell Jack was such a soap opera moment. That surprised me. Loved it! Nice fight scene with Emily and the-white-haired-man. Conrad's last scene with Lydia was good too with all that subtext. No way Lydia and Victoria are dead - that was another good soap opera scenerio. Ashley's such a social climber and it now seems like she's got a hold on Daniel. Can't wait until next season!

So I watched the first two episodes and thought it was ok but wasn't overly impressed. The acting (especially from the side characters) is VERY meh. Emily vs. Victoria seems to be the only reason to watch. Do the side characters get any more interesting or worth watching? Declan and the Grayson daughter are particularly heinous. Also the dark skinned friend/assistant/whatever to the Graysons - the girl Emily knows. How pointless can one character be, I mean, WTF, seriously.

^ WHAT?!? I just WATCHED the final four episodes and was BLOWN AWAY.

This is by far my favorite primetime series now. That season finale was amazing and I cannot WAIT for next season!!

Also, if anyone watched "Alias" (one of my past favorite shows), I see a lot of tie-ins with it...especially at the end with the "mother" thing.

I just finally watched the finale (I've sadly been behind) --- AMAZING! Wow what cliffhangers - and that song they played at the end. Very dramatic and spooky. I just loved this entire season - so soapy, so dark, so entertaining... We need more shows like this!

If someone is confirmed dead for Season 2 - my guess is Charlotte - that actress is horrible (only horrible actor on the show) - and I wouldn't mind seeing her whiney ass go.

    • In a way, it's a shame that Lynne Adams decided to leave the show when she did, because I think Mike and Leslie were positioned very well to become GL's tentpole couple.
    • Correct. Lynne Adams (Leslie) decided she wanted to leave the show, as Leslie hadn't been given much to do since Adams returned as Leslie in 1973 (and now everyone can witness her first scene returning as Leslie in 1973 on YT - unreal) I don't think the Dobsons tried to stop that from happening, as I think they wanted Mike single again. I agree, @DeeVee - they should have let Mike and Leslie have a child together. I wonder it they thought it would be too strange to have two siblings that could also be cousins

      . As far as Ed and Holly go, at least they allowed Ed to show up at the end of TGL and take Holly on a "trip around the world". IMHO, I don't think Peter Simon had as much chemistry with Maureen Garrett as Mart Hulswit had, but I'm glad the show gave them a final scene together.
    • IF this gets a renewal I can't see LY sticking around    
    • Well, I'm glad to know Devane and I are on the same wavelength, lol.  But seriously.  I don't believe there's any other word to describe the machinations that the producers constructed in the name of keeping Greg and Paige apart.  Greg and Paige made Sam and Diane look mature by comparison! Which would have been just as well, since a character like Greg Sumner didn't really belong in the '90's, as the storyline with the task force proved only too well.  If KL had returned for another season, it would've needed a MASSIVE overhaul, including ditching Greg, Paige, Claudia and Anne.  Mack and Karen would've needed to be there for the sake of continuity; and maybe some mileage could've been gained from exploring Gary's new life as a widowed single father.  (I still would've loved to bring back Julie Harris and have Lilimae help Gary take care of the twins).  Otherwise, it would've been a new era for KL, one without The Sumner Group, or stories like Wolfbridge and Empire Valley.

    • Didn't she know when she involved him in her scheme, before the character was introduced? I thought she tracked down Janice's son and poisoned his mind against Rachel in order to get him on board.  It's a bit confusing because in the summer of 1988 we get a lot of Drew Marsten (whom I had forgotten was Nicole's ex) and mentions of a mysterious Countess and also Reginald working to undermine Cory. Drew disappears around the same time Evan arrives, and gradually we get the reveals that he is in cahoots with Iris, Janice's son, etc. 
    • I apply totally different standards. For Felicia & anyone else in Bay City it's reel as opposed to out here in the universe where it's real.  
    • And that is why western civilization is screwed up with organized religion. but thats for another board.
