No other feature film touched me as deeply as this film did, no other film had the raw emotional honesty, no other film had characters so flawed and so desperate and so deserving of redemption, and no other film managed to still be so funny and entertaining and uplifting despite so much heartache and pain.
But what this feels like to me is a show desperate to not lose one of its strongest characters (and actors) and one of its best conflicts all in one fell swoop.
