I would just recommend stopping after a certain critical point in the show. There will be a big event that introduces several new characters, the show really goes downhill from then on.

But then you miss the ending and pondering over what it means! Although I'll admit my essay probably means I am unusual in finding the ending so interesting...

I still clench my teeth thinking about the ending. So wrong and contrived.

I just read your essay and found it more entertaining than the actual ending itself.

I think the end of season 1 was honestly a perfect ending. N as a character was a boring L clone+.

IMO it goes from uber-awesome to good, but you're right, it was somewhat disappointing.
