I've know since the beginning of this series what happened IRL. I was excited to see where they would take it. This has been such a great show, I don't remember a bad episode or ever feeling like I was losing interest. It was quite the opposite, I was bummed when they were on hiatus and excited when the wait was over. Every Sunday I knew how an hour of my life would be filled. I think the ending was superb. Might not be what some wanted or expected but I thought the writers handled it all very well. Of course the cast knocked it out of the park, as alway! What an amazing group of actors, you feel everything with them...pain, anger, sorrow, regret, fear, sadness they just didn't a phenomenal job. Sad to see this one go, but at least they didn't drag it out another 4-5 years like some shows that start out great and get boring, predictable and stupid. They ended on a high note. Well done Animal Kingdom, well done, you will be missed.
