I think I'm pissed because the show could have wrapped up with 1 more season.
The Texas government, old US government, The Allied States, and Jericho (with Beck) would have all had a showdown with the truth coming out.
I just hate that a show like this goes "unfinished".
Hell the best character on the show was the black brat barrister fella from Outlaw but Beck was starting to grow cuz he a mindless soldier.
They need to do a 2 hour movie or something to wrap the show up, then I'll be somewhat satisfied.
That scene with Beck, his men and the laptop was a kickstart.
If they wrap the show up properly, I'd put it in my top 10 and want it on Blu-Ray. If they don't, they can just fuck off. I don't want a half-done TV series on disc.
Oh cmon, it was totally cheesy at times. Don't get me wrong, I loved the show and partly was
because it was cheesy. Just take for example the second to last show where Jake was being held by Beck for the killing of whatshisface (DB Sweeney). He puts him in a room and tells him, "you won't eat unless I say so; you won't sleep unless I say so". Then later on they show Beck talking to him after 24 hours in that room and all around his eyes are all red, he's dirty as fk, etc. What, could he not sleep in a quite room with the light on?
Then later after a supposed three days in there, he's hallucinating, can't speak, barely recognizes his mother, his eyes are so red an swollen you would swear someone just emptied out a can of mace in his face. It was just the cheesiness that came with the show and part of the overacting that was in each episode.
As for wrapping it up, they already did. That last show a week ago was it. They filmed and extra episode just in case the ratings didn't work out again.
Spoiler:
Show
Hawkins dies.
The get the bomb to Texas to secure an uncorrupted gov't and ensure things will eventually return to normal.
That liaison chick convinces Beck that J&R is corrupt and you see Beck swing the military.
