Harper's Island has finally come to a close. The last two episodes were so-so. Actually, that's incorrect. "Gasp" sucked, but "Sigh" was good enough. There really is no summary needed. Everyone dies except for Abby, Jimmy, Shea, and Madison. The other killer was...Henry! A surprisingly nice twist. He was helping Wakefield, who happened to be his father, and even killed Trish who ran around like an idiot in the wood in her wedding dress. Abby ends up killing Henry and she's upset that she's now a murderer. Whatever.
"Gasp" was just excrutiatingly boring. I sat there squirming in my seat waiting for the ending. It was honestly the worst episode of the whole season. They could have condensed it into the next episode and just made "Sigh" and hour and a half.
Now, let's talk about Harper's Island as a whole. Did I like it? Sort of. Half was good, half was terrible. Did I have fun? Yes. Harper's Island was good enough to hold my attention, but it definitely peaked in the middle. The end, which should have been the best part, became predictable, but what should you have expected from a summer show? It's not supposed to be HBO material!
"Gasp" Grade: C- "Sigh" Grade:B Finale Grade: C+ Show Grade: B-
