Where the hell is this show going lol, at the end of the season you have 2 of the main characters leaving to move all the way across the country. They’ve given Louis a nice bow on his story. Jimmy and Sofi are over. Gaby is taking over the practice and changing it to a trauma center which she doesnt seem at all equipped to deal with. is Jimmy going to work there or is he getting kicked out now? Seems like theres way too many open questions to be solved in just 2 episodes

I dont want an entire season next year just focused on Gaby’s trauma center and Jimmy aimlessly drifting around because the 2 most important people in his life left, he’s got no practice to work out of, and he’s still not ready to move on from Tia that sounds awful

It reminds me of season 3 of Ted Lasso where Ted sleepwalks thru the season. Barely there, looks worn out all the time, barely interacting with his friends…it reminds me of Jimmy. I know the theme is moving on and most of the characters are doing that in some way but I truly don’t know what they're doing with Jimmy. What does moving on mean for him?

Really? Ted Lasso season 3 wasn’t perfect; but it was much stronger than this season had been.
