feliciakwWell, it looks like it's finally happened. Ever since the end of S1, I've gone into each new season dreading the inevitable cancellation of The Unit.
And it's finally happened. :-(
Thankfully, it did not end on a cliffhanger. It sounds like the producers knew this was coming and left a couple story threads that could be picked up if by some miracle they got renewed, but they didn't leave it in an unbearable place.
This article lists some very good reasons why the show shouldn't have been cancelled. And I agree with all of them. The biggest reason I think it should not have been cancelled--and probably the primary reason that it was cancelled--is that it was intelligent drama that wasn't afraid to be both patriotic and controversially ambiguous. And seriously. Who wouldn't want Jonas Blaine on their side?
*salutes The Unit* It's been an honor and a pleasure.
