Penny and Julia- I like, I approve

I am convinced the Dark King is Q reincarnated

Guess we know who stole the entire supply of living clay

How they treat Elliot breaks my heart. Why they never let him be happy? It's one tragedy after another. :cry:

I find it funny that after preaching how not to get snatched, Yan gets snatched lol. I guess dont take smoke breaks outside a protective circle didnt cross his mind,lol.


Cant believe they dropped that letter

I was really hoping Elliot would have at least wrote Q to tell him how he felt.

The Dark King, he is an interesting one. I have a new theory on who he is, he is Qs grandson. We really have no idea where his and peachs son went off to when he left the mosaic house. For all we know he found the time keeper and got sent into the future.

What did y'all think of last nights episode?

How do y'all feel about the Dark King?








I hope the professor isn't truly going to be stuck in shroom land (although that seems to.be what he wants). I like him.

Idk what to think about the dark king.

Since the last episode shows that their hunting fairies, I wonder what his plan is.. maybe to make them slaves again?

I know on reddit some people think that the takers showing up as a response to him breaking the fairy deal (that fairies would no longer be harmed)

But I kind of think he’s the one making them so he can look like a hero. Especially since he looks to be the only one who can destroy them

Anyone watch tonight?

I kinda liked the swap. I felt they could have done a bit more with it though.

I didn't hate the ending.

After all this time I still think of Josh as the guy who really doesn't belong. He's a hanger-on. I miss Q. Penny and Julia make a good couple. I hope they have more kids.

Final episode airs tonight. :(

I'm going to miss this crazy effing show.

I can’t believe it’s over, ugh

I just watched it, I had it recorded. I didn't know it was the actual series finale. I really liked all of the characters. I'm gonna miss Margo and her fabulous fashions. I'm gonna miss my boo Elliot. Alice, who can be annoying but still always comes through. I'm gonna miss Julia, she grew on me immensely (she irked the hell out of me S1), I'm happy for her and Penny 2 and their new family.

I think the actors/actresses are really good. I wish them all success in their future endeavors.

I really like parts of Julia's arc. She started out as this wannabe who was a bit of a pest for the insider all-stars until we learn that she's the MVP. I adore her friendship with Q. Everybody could use one of those. I'm not happy with all the horrible things she had to experience along the way; so I'm glad she got a happy ending.

So I just started watching this show (I’m on episode 1) and does Quentin remain a prick throughout the entire 5 seasons?

I've always liked Quentin so I can't answer that. He does things that are annoying sometimes, but that goes hand in hand with being an enjoyable character. He is an important character in terms of moving the story and motivating other characters, so if you are hating on him, the show overall might not be as much fun for you.

I've only seen the one episode so I'm going to give the show and Quentin time. I hope I enjoy it like you do.

Wow, short thread. I liked the first half more than the second
I enjoyed the caper leading up to saving the earth and everything with the moon. Everything with Fillory fell flat for me. Idk...maybe after Q, I was just over it with Fillory. It probably made sense the show ended it ran out of gas. I just feel like watching this season I forgot why I even liked the show. I can’t put my finger on it...

Glad to see this thread bumped.

I feel the same way about Q dying, the show was kind of bland. I felt like they could've done more with the last season. I still hate this show got cancelled.

And I wasn't even a huge Q fan but he definitely provided some glue that was missing in this season. It didn't help they tried to drag in old characters and bring back popular tropes (the singing)...it just felt all the sir deflated out of it. I think the actors, production and writers were just over it.

I still want to know the real tea why Q seemed to have been fired from the show when they only had one season left. :coffee:

If I remember right the writers felt like his characters journey was coming to an end or something like that, which I disagree. I personally feel like there was more that could be done with him.

I think that's BS and was their way of being diplomatic. Also I read they did this in secret and didn't tell cast so teh actor did not get a goodbye party or anything. He actually got a phone call into the cast...that's VERY weird. People have kept incredibly mum about it. I read (I think on redit) that some people heard the actor did not like the character playing at being bisexual. That sounds plausible at being so mum because 1) the producers would be mad at that (I think the showrunner is gay...?) 2) it would not bode well for his career to be anti-gay/bisexual. So I could see them punishing him on the low and getting him out quickly and him not making too much fuss because it was his choice. But this is all speculation.

I'm late but I just finished the show and the last season definitely felt weird without Q. I think ending the show with his death would have been fitting. The first couple of seasons really captured my interest but it started to wane in 3. I did think the finale was a great send off though.

Aww you reminded me of this show. Maybe I’ll rewatch. Season 3 had the great episode where they Q and Elliot lived a long life trying to solve a puzzle. Honestly, I don’t even remember the finale lol
