Writers made Vic a snitch in the end:pacspit:and Vic would have never snitched in the fashion that he did. He would have warned Ronnie and lied his ass off

as much as id like to agree with u, that isnt true at all. vic from day 1 was always out for self first. yes he was loyal to his crew but only so as long as he was scott free. the very first episode he kills a fukkin cop remember that. vic was out for self and never changed from day 1. he now is forced to live with what he's done and the monster he realizes he always was at that very last moment

Vic's ending was somewhat better compared to everyone else, however he's working with people who outright tells him they're going to make his life hell and amongst other things:whew:

vic ending was not better. he is living his own life sentence and is worse than any of the others. Two of his crew members died, including a woman and child, not directly bc of him but indirectly yes, then he basically threw Ronnie under the bus for his own safety, his own wife and kids snitched him out to the cops and are under witness protection, he will NEVER see them again, and bc of his immunity those government agents are gonna make his life a living hell for as long as they can. Vic is living a life sentence of self hell and clarity of the massacre he's done to basically every person he ever loved or cared for. he's dead inside. he probably killed himself eventually

He killed an internal affairs cop trying to infiltrate his crew and take them down. That doesn't take away from his loyalty to his crew, only the opposite. Also throughout the series, Vic was always willing to risk his own well being to help out his crew and other friends in the series. His stuck his neck out for them time and time again, no matter how high the risk & stakes were. That's why I don't buy he would fold so easily, even if he took the deal, the real Vic would have found a way to warn Ronnie to run and told him he was taking a deal.

Pyrrhic villainy. Plus, that is why I said "somewhat."

Lem is dead. Shane is dead. Ronnie is rotting in prison. Vic gets paid $60,000, has manipulated everyone around him, and if he can make it for 3 years,'t he can't be held acountable for his crimes. Everyone on the show got a shytty ending.

his wife and kids hate him, everyone hates him, he has no respect, yeah he gets paid 60k a year for doing boring mundane desk work no action, it's like the end of the wire with marlo, everyone close to you is gone, yeah you have money and your freedom but what good is that when its the power, the respect, the name that rang in the street holds no weight anymore
