First, they committed what, for me, is the cardinal sin. The beginning of the episode revealed a later event in the episode, and then we got one of those "some hours, days, months or years earlier" things before the show started. This technique has become so overused that I just want to scream when I see it happening.
As for the episode, it was pretty weak. I hope the rest of the series will be better, because I hate to see such a quality show go out with a whimper. Maybe if they hadn't tried to spin Yellowstone off into several other shows the team wouldn't have been too burned out to produce a dignified end to the show that started it all.

I was eager to see currently popular artists pay homage to Queen with some great covers of the band's music. Darren Criss is a very talented guy, but in this production he was given cringe worthy skits with horribly forced dialogue to perform between the musical performances. The only excuse for a talented and versatile guy like Darren Criss to agree to read and perform awful skits like that would be to pay off a large debt that he owed to a vicious loan shark.
The actual musical performances were quite good, including that of Darren Criss. If the creators of the show had only foregone the awful skits and substituted for them more photos and footage of Queen with a voice over full of interesting band history and facts it would have been SO much better.

It happened with The Closer when Kyra Sedgewick left, and it happened to Queen of the South when Veronica Falcon and Joaquim de. Almeida left, and now it's happening to Animal Kingdom with the departure of Ellen Barkin. I'm talking about that slow (or sometimes rapid) slide downhill when the heart of the show is gone and the producers and writers are desperately struggling to keep a thing alive when the good ideas aren't coming any more.
I usually dislike TV series that are spun off from a film, but in the case of Animal Kingdom I've felt that the TV series was actually better than the film that it was based on. It's so sad that this show's producers didn't go out on a high note instead of trying to patch the hole left by Ellen Barkin's departure with the pointless flashbacks to "early Smurf".
