Felicity finished

Felicity has just finished airing on Australian television. This was in rerun form. I wanted to amplify some of the comments I have read on this site. Felicity captured my interest due to the interesting story lines and the way in which it was delivered by the actors. I did miss most of season 1 but the story line was easy to understand. Girl watches boy from afar then in a heart lead move changes her path to follow him. This decision proves foolish at first but other doors open (Eg Noel) and Felicity finds herself engulfed by the realities of life. Were as my interest stayed to follow Fecility's journey, sometimes I found the script lacking as so many story lines were started and never followed through. I tuned into the last episode two weeks ago today and was not impressed. It is such a shame to see a show that began with an incredible script, brilliant photography and lighting, excellent music and believable characters to be wasted on what seems to be writers and creators who gave up.
