Since last season I've been more or less forcing myself to watch this show, constantly reminding myself how great it was back in season one, but it just kept getting worse and worse. I was so confused as to how a intriguing show with many complex underlying themes about love, destiny, god, etc etc.., could turn into this godawful sappy love/cop show with crappy one liners. All the good music was gone, all the quality piano scenes, the clever devil and hell references. To sum up, it felt like the entire writing team had been swapped and replaced by the people behind shows like the big bang theory. Yet finally after so many episodes it all went back to normal. This was easily one of the best episodes ever, up there with "a priest walks into a bar". Here's to hoping they can keep this going and work on the trashy filler episodes, because the season finales have actually always been very good, it just seems like they actually only have a few episodes of good content per season.
