The end is in sight. Both of Rooster’s first season and of Greg’s semester as a college professor, and everyone’s getting the feels. This should have been where things start to build to something, but no, it still feels flat, which is why I’ve been dragging my feet even more about publishing the recap. While some of the characters are likeable, I keep finding fewer and fewer reasons to be invested in the show. But we’ll get to that.

In the meantime, we get to witness Greg’s final days as a professor at Ludlow.
