The final scene should have just been cut out..


Since they knew that this was going to be the last episode of the show, why bother showing the weapons cache in Ginny's storage bin. They were not going to elaborate on why the stuff is there so don't air the damn scene and keep people wondering. Anyway I hope that the show is maybe picked up on another channel. It was really good.

They should end all canceled shows with an atomic bomb blowing up the city. "And everybody died. The end,"

Maybe they're hoping a smarter station will pick up The Player so that the story can continue.

I certainly hope so.. Because I was really starting to get into it..

AFAIK they were told of the cancellation of the show during the filming of Ep 9, so I suppose it's either giving the show a half-assed ending or film it the way it was meant to be in the hopes that it will be picked up.
It's a shame though. Even if one doesn't think the writing is all that, it's still a very entertaining show and sure beats having another cop show. Like there aren't enough of those already...

I'm glad they put up the story they intended and didn't compromise. No slapped together ending would have provided any measure of satisfying closure.

"I said no camels, that's five camels, can't you count?"

No, I thought that was good and important. It gave some idea what Ginny was into and how she certainly wasn't some innocent party in all of this.

Agreed! I would have been semi-OK with ending w/out that... After seeing that I was more disappointed (cuz this was the episode being filmed when the episode order was cut to 9!)...
