While it was a deeply sad end, the way they handled the writing was authentic. Forgive me for criticizing your writing, but you are saying because it wasnt a happy ending, it wasnt good. We dont live in a utopia, people die. Seeing how the community handles trauma and grief of Clay and others, how Jason's character evovles, this is part of the greatness of this show. I think you are out of your mind. We all loved Clay. His personal growth and talents as a Team Member appeal to us all. But the authenticity is spot on.
