Esp. the finale.

It was a great show, accent notwithstanding.

Fun fact ... the ending sequence of finale is the song Cat Stevens - Father and Son, which was perfect, and then the credits open to Fight Song by The Flaming Lips ... which lists Cat Stevens as a co-writer ... because it sounds a lot like ... Father and Son.

I'm the sorta music nerd who knows these kinds of things

Show's worth watching ... the latter half of the last season is particularly affecting. Arguably a little 'obvious' at times but if you watched all along and you're invested in the characters, it's really a great last few episodes.
