... holy shit omg I need to buy tickets for DC. Anyone want to go with me?
That's one way to see it. Similar to how Paula was set up to be the "rival" at the beginning of the series but she became Rebecca's
Trent is still creepy af though, but he is what Rebecca could be, if Rebecca was a man.

Going back to season 1, everyone has a certain level of character developments.
Except Rebecca is more or less the same person. (Less probably, she lost her job.)
I just noticed the actress who plays Jane the Virgin's Petra is in Crazy Ex Girlfriend, E204. If they have a crossover I'd lose my mind!

I love Trent too.
Who I don't love is Valencia's girlfriend.
I like the she has one. And I like what it's doing for her character.
But the actress they picked just isn't working for me.

The actress delivers all her lines in such a naturalistic way that she sticks out in a bad way. The line readings on this show have a particularly snappy "flavor" that she lacks.
She's not very memorable. If i had to describe her personality, I wouldn't have much to say. She needs to be more fleshed out.
My OkCupid profile for the next month is just gonna be one sentence:
"Have orchestra tickets to see Crazy Ex-Girlfriend live. Need +1"
Happy Valentine's day.

Well hello there :P
(Sadly out of town when in NYC)
I believe the rule is still a week after it finishes airing so next Friday
Yeah, it's the same day as Wrestlemania. Doesn't Rachel Bloom know that there's a major overlap of fans between Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and the WWE?! It's basically my backup if my brother has his baby that weekend and New Orleans plans fall apart.
I got into the NYC the moment it went up, got Orchestra row D and thought "can I get better?" Opened up on the mobile app and only a handful of single seats were left. That happened in less than 30 seconds.
They should do more shows.

Suddenly, I feel like I am on the winning end of buying an iTunes season pass to watch it tomorrow instead of live.

This show and Rebecca's struggles have been such an analog to my (and others') own mental health issues that the turn this episode took surprised me, as did Rebecca's speech at the end, and I felt somehow implicated even though I've (like most people!) never done anything close to that. That's not an issue with the show, but it was a moment where I suddenly felt the tension of my association with this character, and it's making me feel a little weirdly about the finale as a whole.
What in the hay? I feel sorry for people who watched it live.
I will enjoy it once it's out on the website.

Soooo...
Was that the series finale or can we hope for another season?
Please don't be over... ;_;

The ending was horrible. Yes the show is far from realistic, but they at least try to keep the law stuff a little bit real when there is no singing involved. The judge would have just interrupted Rebecca's monologue and demanded a simple guilty or not guilty plea. Why is a Corporate attorney defending her instead of a criminal defense attorney? A criminal defense attorney would know the insanity defense never works and the proper plea would have been not guilty because of defense of others (ie, Nathaniel). Maya, George, and Tim all saw Trent with the knife holding it above Nathaniel's back - why else would someone be holding a knife above someone's back when their back was turned, it wasn't in preparation to cut meat FFS.... A carving knife can still significantly injure someone if plunged into their back (yes not the best choice to kill someone with but it blends in as a waiter at a party). Rebecca's attorney could have also subpoena'd Instagram to get a record of the death threat, and shown the police Trent's Rebecca shrine if it still existed and if destroyed Paula could have been deposed regarding its existence. Very sloppy writing, not quite as bad as Barry's trial on the Flash lol.
I'd like to think the season 4 premiere will acknowledge some of those things (after all, season 3 eventually got around to pointing out how weird it was for Valencia to be Rebecca and Josh's wedding planner) - but yeah,as the AV club pointed out, normally when this show kind of winks at the audience when it fudges legal stuff, like "haha yeah it's not realistic but it's also not that important to the actual story" , but that didn't happen here, so it really stands out.

Paula really is the best character on top of the best singer!

We were robbed a song because Nathaniel's actor was sick! BOooooooooooo.
Too bad, it would have alleviated at least one of the problems I had with the episode (we're moving in together ! => We broke up, she was not my type).

Would have loved to see that (though using the musical cue before the party pretty much accomplished the same thing), though they mention they wouldn't rule out that they might use it later.
SEASON 4 PLEASE.
The split was telegraphed hard with the carpet store scene near the start
What a finale! They fudged the law bit, but the ending was emotional to me. Rebecca finally owned up to her mistakes, and the relationship between Paula and Rebecca has finally mended.
Nathaniel deserves that punch. He better gets some sort of repercussions next season.
I hope we get to see Rebecca in jail, at least for 3-4 episodes, see how she interacts with other prisoners.
The childbirth song was hilarious and real. I loved how Heather was still Heather despite everything. White Josh and Darryl are warming up, that's so nice. Overall it's a very good episode, imo.

I had to rewind Josh punching Nathaniel. They sold the hell out of that I had to make sure it didn't really connect.
Finally got a chance to read this. A lot of love went into this show.
Loving this quote:
Oh god. As a former federal prosecutor...
The ending was terrible. There's no way she'd be allowed to deliver a fucking soliloquy during arraignment. HOW did she plead guilty to attempted murder? How did her lawyer allow her to do that without interrupting the proceedings?! That alone is complete insanity! I can't believe that was the ending. I realize it was for dramatic effect, but seriously.
I love this show and everything about it; this is the first bit that's ever strained my suspension of disbelief.

I am sure that if McKenna and Bloom get enough complaints about that final scene, they will make a point of addressing it in the next season. They seem to like to poke fun at their mistakes or leaps in logic.
