That opening scene was so good.Russfest
Season overall hasn't been great though, they've definitely run out of ideas for the show, it's just meandering along to an end at this stage.

Russ and Gilfoyle sceneMostly filler this week but any scene with Russ is gold
Russ and Gilfoyle scene
"The...earning man?"“I’d rather do my own mother.... than Russfest”

… towards the end when he delivers his lines standing in front of the RY on the HUNGRY carMostly filler this week but any scene with Russ is gold
There's only 2 leftSome absolutely brilliant lines this season (especially Dinesh with his dick measuring one, followed up by the Chilean's and Gilfoyle), but does have an end of times thing going for it. Hope they go absolutely bat shit crazy for the last few because at this point its all looking quite sane.

Which is why it's weird that that episode was basically filler. There's just been no coherent, continuous plot this season, just Gavin constantly trying to feck Richard up and failing, basically. And they haven't really known what to do with Gilfoyle, Dinesh and Monica who are basically just side characters at this point.
It's still immensely entertaining but they're definitely ending it at the right time.

Yep.Is it over then? Was that the series finale?
Yes. Just that this time there was a finality to the stunt. Am just surprised they didn’t venture into PP turning uber successful and then being torn down. Instead chose to recycle a lot of the same struggle over and over again. Overall I liked the finale but they could have ended the show using this 2-3 seasons ago itselfMeh.. I get that they have based the entire show around the guys making progress and then ending up right back where they began with some sort of moral victory along the way so I guess no one should be surprised that the grand finale was exactly that, but this 'one step forward, two steps back' concept was overplayed about 3 seasons ago.
I’m on the final season too and not sure whether I’ll even bother with the final episode. No idea why people loved it so much. It pissed me off seeing them fail for six seasons only to finally succeed and then have something so dumb ruin it all. Not every show needs a happy ending but this one teased them eventually making it for so long and then they never did.I’ve been watching this again and loving it, but I’d largely forgotten the final season. It was mostly decent and had some great moments (everything with Jared and Russ) but feck me I forgot how bad the ending was.
Why not just let them succeed ffs?

Yeah, my biggest problem was that they never actually made them a properly big, successful company. There was so much opportunity missed there to have them try dance around being another Hooli (Google) and rip the piss out of Facebook etc. By season 4 or 5 it really pissed me off that they were still in Erlich's house. We were constantly told it was a potentially billion dollar company and then it never even got that far, irritating.I remember mentioning a the time that the formula was stale. Every single episode went Something Looks Bad > Great Idea To Fix It > Everything Looking Good > Rug Swept From Under.
Rinse. Repeat.
It's almost as if the writers always felt they needed to end the episode with a 'funny' and the first place they always went to was 'the main thing failing'.
