i just wished the season could have been more entertaining somehow. it really wrapped at the right time and with the correct storylines so i'm not bothered by the ending at all. i mean her university story and the full circle with her terapist and her mental struggles were amazing to see. like nothing very major happened or there wasn't a big of a drama as in the previous ones so, at last, it was the vanilla of all the seasons. but i did at last and that helped me realize that even though it was an enjoyable last ride, it was very plain. let's stablish first that i took more than two months finishing this one, since university finals and all jusr crept in and i abandonned it momentarily. Ok so first things first, that plot summary is not that accurate and i feel like it lacks a lot of what happens this season that in my opinion is more important than the boys Devi is involucrated with! now, let's talk about the farewell season of this incredible comedy of the past few years. And I think because of that it missed a lot of marks. There was an experience but the experience couldn't find a way to become the story. I feel as though her dad's death is left hanging in the balance as she is distracted by other things.Ī lot of the show seemed random and untethered to a true cinematic story. She turns on her connection with her dad as she prepares for a new transition into college. Again, this brings up the question of why her character needed to exist? The very last episode of the final season Devi warps back into displacement. She had no real stability outside of chaos. To me, all of Devi's relationships with the boys were nonsensical except the one she had with Des. However, there seemed to be a withdrawal of intentional support on different parts of the show's storyline. If the goal was to keep the audience stuck in Devi's cyclical whirlpool of grief and in a trance of confusion to reflect Devi's life, I give credit. Everything Devi clung to was through anger, especially, in her relationships with Ben, Ethan, her mom, and Paxton. For example: trying to solve death while trying not to solve unhealthy obsessional behavior. It seemed surrounded with reversing what was and wasn't realistic in Devi's life. ‘Never have I ever' seemed overly saturated with starting problems and never finishing them. Everything she chose (especially the boys *who I must say she had no real chemistry or bond with*) eroded the storyline of why her character needed to exist. I didn't see development in her grief or journey. There was a strong lack of intimacy between the main character and herself.
