Well, uh, yeah... still recovering from the awesome last night. THAT is what I call an awesome-sauce, fangasm-inducing, bad-arse season finale. B)

Right, so I guess I'll start off by saying that there is so much yes coming from me in seeing Conner again. Especially so given how much time he got, not to mention how that time was actually used. Seeing him leading an ARC team in the field at the start of the episode was just awesome.

The next thing on my list of thing to go on about is, of course, Mac. I mean, it's not too surprising; it's sort of been a bit back and forth as to if that would or wouldn't happen. Plus, to me at least, the first part from last week sort of screamed, "yeah, it is going to happen". Even with expecting it to happen, though, it was still pulled off wonderfully.

Then there's the apparent change in the time line. I'll be blunt here with my opinion. I'd be thinking it has less -if anything- to do with the fact that the Albertosaurus was killed, and more -or everything- to do with Mac. For one thing, Mac was in a different uniform than the other Mac was wearing. That alone could have caused at least some minor changes, and implies that something somewhere is changed/messed up. Second thing is, and maybe I missed it, but I don;t think Mac had the hand-held with him. If he didn't, that would be even more of a monkey wrench in things. Finally, we see Mac in the military uniform save Past!Evan. However, we never actually see him die; it is merely implied that he did since the other Mac did.

Ultimately though, we know/are to assume that something has and will be changed when Evan and Dylan return. Well, assuming we get another season which I sure as heck hope we do. My hope would be that we don't end up getting effectively a repeat of what happened in the original series when that time comes, however, we can't know until then and I have faith that the writers are better than that.

Overall, I say New World has been freaking awesome. Did it have a little less action than the original? As I've said before; yes, but it makes up for it with well-paced plot and character building that, especially come the finale, really shows and pays off for the better. If I were to make one complaint, it would be that the season ended in true Primeval fashion of a bloody cliffhanger and with no idea at the moment if we'll be seeing another season. Of course, as I said, it is Primeval, and I can respect it from the point of "always leave them wanting more".


So, now that I've gotten that out of my system, it's there for you guys to read whenever you've seen the finale, or if you decide to read it anyway regardless of spoilers.

All I will say is that when you do see the finale that it is very, very much worth seeing. In fact, if I have time, I'm watching again today. And then maybe once or twice more for good measure. We'll see.

...But I'm cool with that.

And, of course, your dreams are squashed by the cancelling of Primeval: New World.

Still might come on, but seriously, dinosaur shows are losing their popularity. How many do you often see on the television that's not some weird nature documentary?

*sigh* Of course.

What annoys me the most is how something like this can be cancelled while there are shows out there with literally as much content to them as watching paint dry that are popular out the wazoo.
