The Passenger

There are simply going to be people who can't grasp the complexity and deeper meaning to this show and this season. They are the ones who will give this episode and/or season a 1/10, and they are the intellectually deprived, some of which wanted it to be as overly exciting as season 1 and can't stand to see something they love slowed down a bit to get to the underlying messages and meanings of the overall show. This show is about us, and we are the robots who are starting to learn about our true nature, current limitations, and infinite potentials. Watch season 2 over again with this in mind and all of the conversations and plots will have new meaning and make a lot more sense to anyone who is having trouble figuring out what is going on. This is much bigger than a TV show and entertainment, and you are being given major clues and hints about yourself that no one ever bothered to give you before (unless you've been searching for and found those answers unfettered by the shackling devices of religion, society, school and education). Unlearning and relearning are much more difficult of tasks compared to the original programming that was done when your brain was a clean slate ripe and ready for that chisel of manipulation, and now to erase that brain washing you have to do some major cleaning, and it can become quite a tedious mess trying to do so.

I believe this might be the show of the century. Humans are not challenged by any other species in this world but once a species tries to, you've all seen the results as to how they are treated. We are controlling psycho paths who destroy things like a virus to make sure we and our children live comfortably. We eliminate things that don't fit our own world view and this statement can be expanded. We as a species are extremely controlling as we continue to develop over the land and environments in which other species thrive on for our own efficiency of life so we can yet again, live comfortably. We are very powerful beings capable of destroying ourselves with a simultaneous push of a button.

Our cornerstone....constantly is to live and destroy anything that impedes that and this statement can be scaled from the micro to the macro level. This show is probably the show of century for me showing our true our true nature; naked bare for all to see. Its scary for us to survive, everything else..must suffer.

We...as a species will never be perfect and will never get over our tribalism. This series dives too deep for the simple minded viewer who doesn't question his or her motives every single day and think of how it impacts everything else.

I'm sorry this post isn't truly about the episode but what thoughts the episode provoked within me and what the interview with Jonathan Nolan also provoked.

I was absolutely flashed! This finale has really exceeded all my expectations of the second season! Nobody really predicted that confusing ending. I'm shocked and excited at the same time. I can't think of any other series that sets such standards in terms of storytelling and profundity. I hope this series will grow bigger and bigger with time! Please HBO! Let the directors tell their complete story to the end! I hope there are 5 to 7 seasons at the end!

As expected still chaos .. hands off to the writers who make sure to confuse viewers when they think they understood everything..!!

Definitely this season finale was a masterpiece, it has a lot of action, heart and intelligence, it brought us answers in a amazing way. I am already waiting impatiently for the season 3. Thanks to the writers, actors and everyone behind this. The photography in this season was extremely beautiful, I loved it. AMAZING.
