On the PC you can fast forward the individual scenes and I would skip the WOW parts and just watch all the arcs pertaining to the characters.I watched most of the episodes this way, skimming to the good parts, which for me were storylines connected to the Royals, the Resistance, Adalind, and Renard. I enjoyed Adalind’s S3 storyline, while most of what I know about Portland events during S3 was learned on the forum.

I must admit, they went the long way around it to get them to look like an item one last time before the end of the series.I thought just the opposite. If it had a purpose other than tossing in a little lighthearted fun, it was to present the characters, specifically, Nick/Adalind/Juliette as settled in their new/different lives. No doubt G & K expected a mix of yippee and WTF when Juliette confessed she was still in love with Nick, but I think the goal was to show that when everything was over Nick immediately went to Adalind and Juliette wasn’t affected by it.

It was episode nine in the final thirteen episode season. I would've ranked it much higher had it come in season 5 rather than the final one where I thought this was just a waste of time.Yea, timing is everything, especially when there’s so much to do and so little time left. My biggest disappointment with the finale was it’s last-minute, fast-pace dash to the finish line. The deaths were occurring in such rapid succession, it felt like a marathon to see how many deaths could be shown in 42 minutes.
It's the same reason I don't like Blind Love as much as most people.
