You can tell with how they filmed that ending that they weren't so sure about whether or not there would be a 2nd season renewal, so they had to fit in everything as much as possible to tie things up (reminded me of Legend of Korra season 1).
Sure, everything seemed a bit hokey, but it leaves the door open for more fukkery next season. Am glad that Spence and Joe are staying together (and Joe has definitely ascended to Ari status for me, without a doubt.)
I thought Ricky's dad was full of shyt. So, because you didn't see your dad when you were young gave you the right to abandon yours? And for motivation purposes? fukk outta here.
I did find Vernon with the Flamingos pretty funny, and Ricky's wilding ass on the fukking camel.
But I did not need to see Rock's bare ass in that sex scene, though.
So, that's my thoughts. Could have been better, but still decent. Let's just hope they up the ante in season 2!
