I love it when a show like this one dares to tackle current day issues. But I favor subtext over text. I like my social commentary not too heavy handed.I agree though that the end justifies the means, but... it does make for a bit of a disappointing bookend to the show.For example, I really liked the previous episode where Sam and Bucky fix the boat. To the casual viewer this scene was just about fixing a boat. But to those paying attention, it was really about fixing America. The scene made it clear that it was not something Sam could do by himself, but it's a start. Not everyone will have understood the subtext. To some it may go way over the head, while to others it is pretty blatant. But that makes it subtle in my book. It found a good middle ground where I think most viewers will get it.And it was so much better than Sam giving a lengthy lecture, like he did in the final episode. I appreciate the show for tackling these topical issues, but I wish they had stayed the course for the final episode.</blockquote>
