Death: The High Cost of Living

What a beautiful episode. I have loved this depiction of Death- she has been a highlight of the show just as she was a highlight of the comics. I would have loved to see more of the character.

As someone who works in climate outreach during this time, this episode really resonated with me and the hopeless I often feel (even looking at some of these other reviews!)

So this is it, the end of the sandman (officially). And despite the finale serving as the end of the show, this, although a special episode, also was a great final instalment for the show as a whole. But I can't help but feel sad, we all know one of the men behind the franchise unfortunately is the reason we won't be getting anymore from this universe, if there was a way to transfer copyright ownership and continue developing things for this franchise I'm sure we'd all love it, but this was a great episode, no extreme action so obviously don't go into it expecting that, go into it expecting a somber and well told story with a small cast which helps the grounded feel. I personally loved it, but am sad it's over.

Strange story for the end of the season, but by itself once of the best examples of story telling iv ever watched. Exploring how one of the side characters of the show, but in this world a god of their realm. How does a god spend a day free of their duties in the world they love. It's absolutely brilliant writing, iv liked this show, and the writing over all has been pretty good but this episode is exceptional, and the highlight of the season.

Massively enjoyed it, one of the best individual episodes of a show iv watched in years.

In isolation this episode is cute and fine. But they rushed through a season of The Sandman, gave us a terribly paced and horrifically poor ending - just so we can have a full final episode dedicated to how his sister is feeling, like in general..? Okay... This might've been a fine teaser episode leading into S02. But as a final episode it's honestly disrespectful.

I honestly didn't know what to expect when I popped this on.

It's beautiful but tragic.

I'm unsure how to feel. The episode made me cry, sadness but maybe relief?

Death was portrayed exceptionally well.

I do think it has made me see another point of view.

It's thought provoking. The episode is fantastic. Pleasantly surprised.
