Anticlimatic It is one of those endings were the producers still hold a hope that maybe they will get a new season so they leave some expectation, but they also have to close most threads.
But considering the bad reviews am I (moderately) happy? Yes.
At LEAST they didn´t repeat some of the mistakes of the final season (that were so awful). I was expecting all the time "oh, now they will repeat the fight were..." But no.
McCoy comes back and I was expecting a happy reunion, but no, it is just a cameo to show that Will didn´t end it up alone.
Grace didn´t have a happy reunion, apparently because of conflicting schedules. Either they were planning to reunite her with leo or with Noah no one knows. Either way it would be hammered, as none of them were seen for a whole season, and "Ross" was cut out of the series very abruptly - grace literally was dating him and decided over a mini problem to chase other guy (always the risk with invited actors when they play love interest and we saw this several times).
I was expecting the whole "oh, so you have Mckoy so you are backing out on me" but surprisingly this didin´t happen, maybe for lack of time.
At least the 11th. Season ended it up on a hopeful note - better than the original final, that didn´t even make sense, although it had more heart because everybody knew it was the ending.
These last three seasons was the karen show. She shined it bright. Who would said 20 years ago that the star of the show would be the mean drunk who appared for a 5th of each episode?
The whole Jack "am I still a nurse" was kinda of meta, but I think it just reflects that the writers didn´t have a plan, and always keep inventing bad stories and just dropping the threadlines.
I am glad they did the reunion, even if to mourn Rosario. Some episodes had a lot of heart. But lots of good oportunities to discuss new themes like mid life crisis, being an older gay man, jack growing up, were never tackled and neglected in the name of chasing old tired topics. They didn´t need to live together. They could have relationships. They didn´t need to repeat the whole pregnancy thing for the third F*ing time. And some of the humour just was old or didn´t have teeth anymore - in 2017 they simply couldn´t do the old mean lesbian jokes for instance.
