Spoiler

he's not gay

The guy reveals he's with the insurance company, not law enforcement. He says they might have been able to get a big payout for being left in the brig if not for admitting to breaking all kinds of laws. They protest a bit. The insurance guy says the ship didn't overturn due to the captain being drunk, but it just got hit by a big wave. He says that's what the insurance industry would describe as an act of god. Mac says "well, God is great" which serves as the final punchline.

 

[gosox333]

actually would have been a nice way to end it

I know it's not time yet and they have at least one more season left, but I can't help but feel that whatever they come up with at the end won't be as fitting as that.

 

[TimeEffect]

Geeez. That first half was unbearably unfunny. That gun scene should have happened a lot sooner and should have been played with a bit.

Thanks.

Didn't even know that tonight was the finale. Really wish they would go back to 13 episode seasons.

 

[The Driver]

I thought this finale was amazing. My family thought it was super depressing up until the reveal

Spoiler

that they didn't die

. I was on board either way, gotta agree that it seemed like a good series finale too.

I watched this from the second season to like the fourth or fifth with a few episodes in between, but returning to IASIP for this season makes me pumped to go back and finally watch all the episodes. It connects with my sense of humor a lot more now.

 

[March of the Crabs]

I genuinely haven't laughed as hard at a TV show in years as I did for the first half of this episode. Holy shit. Great end to a great season that really was on an upwards trajectory.

 

[cantthink9]

I hope this shows around for 20 more seasons. Great episode, awesome season. Hope they return to the bar more next one though

 

[wenis]

Great season finale. The gang has still got that magic.

 

[Dereck]

More episodes per season please. Won't happen though.

 

[Premium Quality]

This season had it's ups and downs, but I would not trade it for anything in the world.
Love the cast so much and will be watching them to the very end.

 

[Not]

Holy shit when Mac starts punching people to get rescued first I was dyinggggggggg

 

[hateradio]

Mac went back in the closet. Of course.

 

[Langdon Alger]

Charlie with the flare gun was awesome.

 

[barik]

Well that was probably the hardest I've ever laughed at a cold open. Overall, great episode, and a great decision to end the season with a bottle episode.

Fun (?) fact: Danny Devito almost drowned in the filming of that last scene. Which I didn't understand when it was said in an interview a few months ago, but now makes total sense.

 

[Ayumi]

Great season finale.

Goddammit, is it the end already?

 

[Banzai]

Hm, hadn't realized this was the finale. It was alright but the beginning with the boat noises was unfunny and unnecessary.

Too bad they decided to go back on Mac coming out. I was hoping the end goal of the show was to have every character actually realize their flaws (/fucked-upness). Yes, I actually want this show to end at some point.

 

[Don Draper's Hat]

Laughed hard when Dee said "CCH Pounder" after Dennis asked her to name a black woman he should impersonate. Laughed even harder when he did it.

S11E10: The Gang Goes To Hell: Part Two

- A.V. Club review:

You might call cheating on the whole “unknown place, unknown time” bit in these last two episodes, and some of the cartoonish nature of the Gang’s antics last week remain unexplained by any sort of “all a dream” scenario. But the offhand denouement is really the only way this season could have ended. The Gang can change in the moment—even in the last extremity—but, given the chance to resume their normal (for them) lives, they will, thankfully for us, always be the Gang.

 

[Santiako]

Bad finale for a bad season, hopefully next year it goes back to being great.

woah

 

[RedNumberFive]

I kind of agree for the most part, but I've enjoyed most of the episode more on a second viewing. I hope that they rely less on rehashed jokes next season. I think that knowing the episode titles in advance set up unrealistic expectations.

 

[backflip10019]

Didn't love that finale. Felt like a bottle episode, where they were saving budget for whatever. Kind of hoped it would end with more spectacle.

 

[Alpende]

I really liked the finale. The onion, oi oi oi oi, Charlie and his gun and the the gang swimming to the top while punching each other.

Good stuff for me.

 

[Kurita]

Finale exceeded my expectations, really enjoyed it.

 

[Squalor]

The underwater rescue was phenomenal.

 

[TapeDispenser1000]

It was only a matter of time before Charlie dresses like Gilligan.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Oy oy oy oy oy oy oy oy

 

[Squalor]

As a lot of us called, they reneged on Mac's coming out of the closet.

Kind of disappointed by that. It would have been an interesting character turn.

Yeah

 

[Pie and Beans]

Not a very good season over all. Last season was too strang I guess. Suburbs and Slopes were probably my favourites.

The guys need to get back to writing again as this season was too self referential making it feel very fan-fictiony in places.

 

[Clydefrog]

It was like a raunchier version of the Seinfeld finale!

 

[Surface of Me]

This season was absolutely fantastic.

 

[the_firewithin]

How was this the finale? It feels like it just came back a few weeks ago...

 

[Surface of Me]

Good joke.

I'm really perplexed by the negative reactions here, I've not seen the sentiment elsewhere.

 

[UrbanRats]

Finale was alright, not spectacular.
Probably the weakest season for me, but it still had some classic moments.

 

[March of the Crabs]

I'm really perplexed by the negative reactions here, I've not seen the sentiment elsewhere.

I completely agree with you! This season was amazing. It was a little heavy on the call-backs, but if I look at it solely based on how much it made me laugh, this season is easily in the top 5 for me.

 

[Sloane]

Loved the finale. Season was pretty good overall, not the best but also far from the worst. Didn't have a single episode written by all three of the guys though, and only one co-written by Rob and Charlie. Guess they had other stuff to do?

 

[Dereck]

Good joke.

Unlike this season which had not one of these.

I think I did it right.

 

[Surface of Me]

I completely agree with you! This season was amazing. It was a little heavy on the call-backs, but if I look at it solely based on how much it made me laugh, this season is easily in the top 5 for me.

Same, the suburbs and slopes episodes are also probably among my favorites for the entire series.

 

[Squalor]

Yeah

They were so blatant with his and Dennis's hidden characterizations this season that it's hard for me to imagine what they could possibly do character-wise next season.

Having Mac accept that he's gay would have been a good start.

 

[BeatnikGunsoo]

10 episodes a season when a show is only 22 minutes is the worst

 

[Dereck]

The last season that had more than 10 episodes was season 7. I wonder why.

 

[jax]

This was definitely the worst season, and a terrible way to end the series. Oh well.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

This was definitely the worst season, and a terrible way to end the series. Oh well.

It's not the end of the series.

 

[Dereck]

 

[Squalor]

Amazing scene.

 

[diaspora]

Oh my god, Dennis and the onion slayed me.

 

[jax]

It's not the end of the series.

That's a relief. Hopefully they actually put a little effort into the next season, and fire all of the writers they had for season 11.
