  • Some things come to a close, other questions are newly opened. The real question here is why they didn't end the season with a pivotal ending like the other season finales?moreless

    This episode was great because we got to see how mischevious many of the characters can really be. We find out that Lou's cousin knew all along that Lou was going to sleep with Latrina. They are both still close and great cousins. Then we find out that Franco calls Natalie to sound sweet and forgiving, while actually going behind her back and letting Richie get married to his sweetheart against Natalie's orders. Then we see that Sheila really got Elvis'/Wyatt's ear pierced behind Tommy's back. Amazing how they can all be so evil.

    But we get to the sweeter side of the episode which mainly focuses on Tommy. We see Tommy finally talk to Valerie and finally talk her into being his ideal "wife". While that goes well, we also see that the new ghost that he is seeing is really himself, which makes you think how crazy Tommy really is. Then we see that he really loves hi father and follows his wishes by taking him to a minor league baseball game. The episode ends with the death of Tommy's dad and as that scene ends, we don't really get sad, but instead embrace his well-lived life. Can't wait till next season!moreless

    Tommy's father died during his last wish to his son. A nice shiny day watching Minor League Ball.

    Franco lets Richard get married, Janet discovers the hole in the ear, Sheila finds her husbands fire jacket, and Tommy's Daughter now seeing the Black Sean.

    Now Tommy may be driven back to drinking or may see his father in his 'dreams', may get pissed at Black Sean for dating his daughter.

    Bigger questions now are the Sheila and Janet plot, and their reactions. Now we have to wait until next year for season 5 to start and see how all of this plays out...moreless

    By tguedry82, Jun 17, 2010 Report Abuse
    I have said all season that something was just missing, and the finale was no different. It felt very choppy and very bland. I gave it a 5.5 because it was still pretty funny and it had a few interesting moments that will hopefully lead to a better season next year, but overall I was just not as impressed with one of my favorite dramas!

    It was very sad to see his dad die, but it was a happy moment for them too, so that was kind of sweet. That was pretty much the highlight of the episode. They better come back swinging next season!moreless

  • What is wrong here? Why was this the season finale? What REALLY tied everything together? Where was the punch?

    I have to commend Leary and Tolan for keeping the show up for as long as they did. But for god's sake couldn't they take examples from their past season finales, (Well at least the first two season finales.) Those finales wrapped things up. Poetically at that. Gavin's family leaves him. Teddy Shoots a man. It flowed. Now it seems Leary and Tolan have been so busy producing this show that it changed the way they write it. It seems like the scripts were rushed through the writing process. I loved little moments of the show. Janet and Tommy having their conversation in her place, that guy in a.a. But what did it really build to that wasn't washed out and just plain damn confused. It's like they start to write without really knowing what they want their characters to do or who they are. BUT- When the show opened, it seems they knew what they were doing. They knew this was the end of a chapter. But it then teetered off somewhere when franco's **** happens. WHY!? Why didn't anything happen? Why didn't we get an answer to "Shadow tommy"? Why did shadow Tommy have scars across his face. I honestly bought into the "Maybe this season is a coma dream" theory and was excited to see the charred face. But then, similar to the way all new Rescue Me characters travel, he disapears and the build up leads to very little payoff. What about the Mike and Black Sean? I could have sworn they were gonna but heads. I mean, they only threw it in our face last week. Maybe Tolan and Leary aren't fully understanding that we have to wait a year between seasons. Please Denis! Please Pete! Hell, please evan Reilly. Hire me to write your show. I'll hook you up.moreless

    What a great finish to season4! The finale is just as bad as the rest of the season.

    All of the theories that could've made the season any better, simply got debunked. (For example, Tommy already being dead, and he's just a ghost, he's just dreaming, etc).

    They sound lame, yep. But at least, then, all of the destruction done to the characters could be undone.

    But this way... no. Tommy's way out of control. He keeps doing the most random stuff ever. But, to be honest, it's not fun anymore. It was fun in season 1, but now, it's just stupid. The show simply lacks a storyline at this point. There were - potentially - a bunch of ways the story could have gone. But none of them were exposed.

    What happened to Sheila this season? She was barely featured. Janet? And her friend? What's up with the ghosts, why they abandoned Tommy? What's the role of 2 minute girl?

    Why is Tommy randomly reading the Bible? Why is he pretending to be Jimmy? Why is Lou so damn out of character? Why Jerry was killed, if there's no benefit of that twist? What's the point of Black Shawn? Why Mikey's character so downgraded that it feels awkward if he's even shown?

    So, the only event in this episode was right at the ending as usual. Tommy's father passed away. It was sad, but it doesn't make the episode.

    Overall, there's not much to be said about this episode, nor this season. Hopefully, the 5th season will be a countinuation to the 3rd season, not the 4th.moreless

    • Sean: You know, the only thing I hate about watching games live? Kenny: Goin' to the men's room? Sean: Yeah, okay, well, two things. It's just so slow. You're sittin' there half the time, just waitin' for somethin' to happen. It's ridiculous. It's like work. Kenny: It's life. Actually, baseball's the perfect metaphor for life. Teddy: You know, I read somethin' like that in a book once. Kenny: You read a book? Teddy: Well, no. It was one of those HBO documentaries, Bob Costas hosted. He's a midget. Sean: Is he really? Teddy: Well, close to it. He can fit two of his asses in these seats. Kenny: Anyway, baseball and life, one in the same. Everybody always says that life is too short. Bullshit. Life, unless you get hit by a bus or cancer, or set on fire, takes forever. Just like baseball. It's a series of long, mind-boggling boring strecthes of time where absolutley nothing happens. So, you take a nap, and then after a little while, when that crisp crack of the bat hittin' the ball, so crisp, you could almost you could almost smell that would burning, jolts you awake and you open your eyes to see something so exciting an intricate, and possibly, very, very meaningful that just happened, but you missed it 'cause you were just so goddamn bored in the first place. Oh, you know, a couple of hot dogs, throw in some beers, the occasional blow job, and that's that. (looks over to see Sean napping, someone gets a hit and he startles awake) Edit
    • John Sr.: Nice ballpark. (in captions below it says: 'Thanks for bringin' me, kid.') Tommy: I know. Sure beats Brooklyn, right? (in captions below it says: 'Anytime, Dad, least I could do.') Edit
    • Kenny (getting tied up so he can repel down to the elevator that's stuck): Last time I had this much rope by my balls, I was wearin' a leather mask and gettin' my ass paddled. Black Shawn: Oh, S&M club? Kenny: No, Thanksgiving about five years ago. Edit
