JOHN SHOULD GO BACK TO CINCINNATTI
The Final Episode...Ever

Filled with plot concepts that went nowhere, story lines left frayed, inane ramblings from most all the characters, sub-par acting (surfers being asked to act like surfers - that's an uphill battle), and characters that I simply don't care about, the show missed the mark. And I tried, believe me.
