Series 11 was a major disappointment in every way, and as series 12 is the final series, this one must be a winner right? Well you'd think, but while this series is slightly better than series 11, it doesn't compare to the first 8 series.

Well you'd think, but while this series is slightly better than series 11, it doesn't compare to the first 8 series. The main focus in this series is the gay marriage sub-plot between Alan and Walden, it's pulled off extremely poorly, it doesn't go anywhere and it's completely dropped near the end of the series, not to mention it had me and a lot of people I know going, What?! The humour hasn't improved much, it's still bland and unoriginal, and I had completely lost interest in the show by this point anyway, and this series highlights the reason why very well. But the main focus here is the Finale, I decided to watch it what with the rumours of Charlie Sheen making a reappearance, and I wanted to see how they were to send off a series that had lost it's way 4 seasons ago, let's cut to the chase, the finale was a major disappointment. There was one thing I liked about it though, and that was the meta-humour, but that's it, Charlie Sheen did not make a reappearance here, and even though that really annoys me, the character was handled poorly in this episode off-screen, how do you do that? Charlie supposedly threatening to kill Alan and Walden, why? Charlie sends big checks to all his previous girlfriends in some very unsatisfying cameos, why? Jake is now rich and married with kids, what? It feels very slapdash and rushed, and the ending. Uuuhhhhh! So overall, I'm disappointed, the final series was meant to be a homage to both eras of the show, the Kutcher era, and the Sheen era, but nothing, including the finale, even slightly looks back on the first 8 years, which in my opinion, is a major shame.… Expand
