The last task

[salhy-40882 · 10/10 · 15 December 2019]

Finally Shawn got the hint and understoof why he's always feeling as a failure : that's because he's not doing anything to get beyond that, he doesn't even bother trying and not matter how hard Cory, Feeny or anybody else will push him to, as long as he's not doing it by himself because he wants to he's never gonna succeed anywhere. Took him looooong time to get that but finally he did. Feeny had to play his last carts, tough ones and how damn well it did work. Poor of him, his anger here was as much for him as for the audience, Shawn and his fixating idea of worthy nothing, not even a peanut is so frustrating to watch so I feel Feeny for having to endure it ever since the kiddo was a little kid. The Eskimo huh, well good metaphor and finally he got the fact he's his own enemy stepping front of him and stopping him to improve himself. He succeed to get to the Superbowl game without any tickets and so he'll success to go the college. Powerful episode for sure.

The show really dipped in quality this season.

This season was overall, pretty bad. The situations kept getting more and more implausible and the character's personalities seemed to just morph to whatever the story needed rather than be consistent for their characters.

This episode was especially ridiculous. Feeny would know good and well that he couldn't require someone to get tickets to any game for a grade. And any situation where a teacher "inspires" a high school student to push past his comfort zones and cross state lines to follow a whim, is a situation where a teacher should be fired, not praised. Bad, bad episode.
