I didn't love the finale so much. I did really like that it was Tom, though. That said, I think they could have developed Shiv's turn at the end a little more. Some have said that once she knew it was Tom she would rather hitch her wagon to his and get paid too, but I think that left too much off the page and screen. Because of that, the final vote was a little out of the blue and when Tom said "I have a car coming in 20" it seemed more like he was twisting the knife with regard to their "convenience" discussion rather than actually genuinely communicating. It all felt a little ghost in the machine.
I also feel like the Matsson character kind of started strong this season and petered out, or was diminished by random unbelievable things he divulged. To me it would have been much more satisfying to see the children thoroughly and cleverly outmaneuvered than to have Matsson bumble his way to an even playing field only to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat through their self desctruction.
..and Stewie fell in line way too easy.
