Plus, I don’t really relish the thought of Prodigal Son without Martin Whitly, so his death really makes this feel like a fitting series finale.
But if I didn’t know about the unplanned cancellation, I would have bought this as a series finale.
Maybe not the most satisfying series finale in the history of series finales, but one that at least tied off some loose ends.
Sure, there are some questions that will never be answered, and we’ll never see the aftermath of Malcolm killing his dad and facing Martin’s dying taunt that they’re “the same.”
