That two-episode block, with all its emotional turning points, was where the show really caught hold of me and wouldn't let go.
I think it may be the point where the show figured out (or at least made visible) the kind of story it was. For Colleen, Ward, and Danny, it's the same question: are you going to keep cycling through the damage of the past in a decaying loop or are you going to grab on to the one thing in your life and leap into the unknown? It's a different answer and a different point for all of them, but they all have to face it. And they all make the leap. Some more wobbly than others, and like all decisions of this kind it will have to be made and remade and remade again, but at the end of the season, even with the weirdo cliffhanger of the closed gate to K'un-Lun that was never resolved, they're all on the other side, looking forward.

I'm glad! And I look forward.
