Fun fact: The names of the last 2 episodes of this season mean, “Beginning” and “End,” respectively. I, too, wonder how Liz will go out. Will she disappear into the woodwork or is that gut wound she currently has fatal? I also wonder how the series will end. They’re down to 3 original cast members after Boone leaves and Spader’s character is supposed to be terminally ill. Run For Your Life managed 86 episodes over the course of 3 seasons from 1965 to 1968 and Ben Gazzara’s character was terminally ill from episode one and told he had 9-18 months to live! When the storytelling is good it’s easy for us to suspend our disbelief. But NBC eventually had enough and canned the show with the main character still very much alive. Hopefully this doesn’t degenerate like Two and 1/2 Men (2003-2015) did after they killed off Sheen’s character and stays as good as it’s been. They definitely need to start planning a satisfying ending now, though. NBC loves cancelling stuff. That it made it 9 seasons is kinda miraculous.
