One of my favourite shows. I personally enjoyed the Mike Prince storyline and thought the ending was definitely above par for most series. Lots of loose ends tied off and very satisfying.

I will always remember the episode with the 'Chicken Man'.

Since Band of Brothers Damian Lewis is still one of my favourite actors.

Was a decent ending. I’m glad it’s finished now; the first 4 seasons were great, the next 2 were poor and this last one has been ok, although only the last few eps were decent to be fair.
The show ended up like an advert for product placement; just plugging NYC food, having some dodgy celebrity that couldn’t act and the recycled storylines which was a shame as it was amazing when it started.

Enjoyed the last episode, as good of a send off they could have done and it worked well.

Not sure that most people should have got a 'happy' ending with what they've done over the last 7 seasons.

I really enjoyed this over the 7 seasons, the ending was good I thought, very well acted throughout and a ton of great characters held the series together, it dipped a bit without Damian Lewis but even so it still held my interest. Not as bleak or dark or brilliant as Succesion, but still excellent TV.

Surprisingly a good ending, most shows when they get to this stage tend to flop and just rush the ending.

I felt the plot was getting a bit ridiculous throughout the last couple of seasons. I actually didn't mind Mike when he first joined, but him and Scooter just got more unbearable as time went on.

I think even when it plodded a little bit over the course of the show, it had great acting and great carachters to keep it very watchable, in fact I don't think there was bad carachter in it. A snappy script and enough legal and financial mumbo jumbo for me to stop caring too deeply about the plot and just enjoy the performances and the laughs.
