Spoilers for the episode follow.
Low Winter Sun’s final two episodes aired as two-hour finale event, so we’re reviewing it as such. As suspected, there was a great deal of payoff for things that had been seeded earlier on in the series. Some of it was worth the wait and some of it was still pointless, but like or not, I respect the show’s decision to play the long game.

That said, I enjoyed his attempts to make things right with the families of victims that the DPD had lied to, even if all of that good will would be gone by the finale’s end.

Occasionally brushing good TV, it was simply too concerned with planting plot devices and coming up with terrible situations that it forgot to develop memorable characters. The final two episodes, while they do bring everything together in meticulous fashion, fa...
