🙁 Disliked it🔥 Controversial

Fans criticize the Finale episode for failing to resolve multiple plot threads and character arcs, with disappointment that secondary characters lack lines and callbacks feel forced or incomplete.

It was indeed a disappointment, the potential was so great with the return of babu and the soup nazi. There were so many setups that were left untouched such as Newman exacting revenge, and did George's mother have sex with the judge and then die after the verdict?! And why did so many of the secondary characters not even have any lines!? In the episode, 'The Pilot'-i think-there were so many secondary characters and they all had lines-it was brilliant unlike this episode. Even having the Judge named Art Vandelay was unfunny since he did not sell latex in his spare time or be a part time architect. And what did Jerry have to tell Elaine on the plane? I could go on, but you get the idea...

Uhm, Newman DID get revenge. He vowed Jerry would have his judgment day, and sure enough...

They're called loose ends. Good writers know that if they toss in a handful (OK, an armload) of them, then foolz like yourself will be up late at night wondering, "If George hadn't been found guilty, would Susan's pop have plugged him anyway?"
