Show felt like it ran out of steam in the last 2 episodes.

:dunno

Howard_Casto:
I think the ending went exactly where I thought it was going to go. I figured that the statue was Oz and that he'd save the day only to finally be held accountable for his actions. It's just the main villain that I didn't get right. I felt like the teaser ending was b.s. Yeah after all the hell that Dr. M caused over his lifetime go ahead and eat the egg because you feel like you can do better. The whole point of this series was that nobody can do better. Not Oz, not Dr. M, nobody should have that kind of power over others, be it political, ideological, or literal. Guess he was right, it never ends, it just keeps going.

pbj:
If she was going to take Dr. Manhattan's powers, why didn't she just do that and then teleport dad back to Earth? The whole rocket ship and statue thing seemed like fluff.

If DM's main power is the ability to reform himself, what does blowing him up accomplish?

If the rubber squid can blow a clean hole through someone's hand, why are they stopped by roofs and a piece of plastic?

Why did the mind control plot go nowhere?

Why is the vast conspiracy of 7th Kavalry just 3 dozen old white people?

Howard_Casto:
Well she's a pompous ass just like her dad, so it was basically all just to show off and having him frozen in her lobby added insult to injury.

I don't know. He's supposedly weak to tachyons, so I guess if the magic power or whatever was sucked from him when he's bombarded by tachyons he wouldn't be able to reform.

Yeah the frozen squid were ---That which is odiferous and causeth plants to grow---. We have ice falling from the sky all the time, it's called hail and it doesn't slice through metal. Even if it did it'd go through everything else like you said.

I think a better question would be, if hooded justice has mind control tech and has had it for 70 years, why does the 7th cavalry still exist?

That's an easy one.... all white supremacists are, at some level, small thinking morons. I mean they are white supremacists so that goes without saying.

Oh well, I enjoyed it. It was an excellent show through episode 7.
