  • Sad finale, luckily one of the best episodes

    "Superb"

    Well in my opinion the series came to an abrupt end and could easily have lasted another 14 episodes (and wouldn't it have been great to get a christmas special in ape land?). However despite the sadness of knowing there is no more apes the series goes out with a bang as one of the best episodes. It has it all from romance to humour- Action to suspense. The new human (I forget his name) is a real star unlike so many guest actors who have brought the series down. The story isn't complex like so many episode are but its simplicity is its strength. The ending is good enough although many fans would have liked a definative closure but unfortunatly that will never happen now and I quite like the openendedness of it. Overall a great end to one of the best US tv shows of the decademoreless
