Attention: do not read unless you have seen the COMPLETE show !!!!

This show became so messed up during it´s run that I couldn´t bring myself to watch it to the end although I only had 3 episodes left.

It´s a shame because season one was really good, almost great. But with season 2 began the downfall. Plot twist after plot twist after plot twist - they screwed around to much with the stories. Add Percys constant whining about how he deserved credit for saving the country again and again and his bragging that he is superior to everyone which became more and more tiresome. Paired with Xander Berkeley´s not quite Emmy like performance and the fact that the writers failed to give him any real background you got one very unconvincing bad guy. But it was just enough to keep on watching hoping for better.
Than came Season 3 and now every episode is almost an excuse to keep the show going. Little sense in the plot, logical lapses at every corner and some crazy things like poking a needle in someone´s brain to make him do what you want. I know TV is make-believe but give audiences some credit for not beeing idiots. For two thirds of the season I didn´t even watch I just listened to the audio and even that became an effort. Like "Alias" the writers tried to much at once and got caught up in their own mess and needed desperate writing to get out of it.
And now comes Season 4, the conclusion, the big finale. It was downright ridiculous. Suddenly there are doubles everywhere up to president of the US and of course no one, not one single person, ever took note. But of course our heroes figure that out in 10 minutes. And we all fly around in a plane as our HQ, some of the most wanted, yet they never seem to have difficulties to land anywhere get fuel ect. I consider that almost an insult to intellect. And with only three episodes left I couldn´t bear another second and went online to read the ending up.
Usually I don´t rant about a show that much. I try to give fair ratings or analyze what I think was wrong even if I didn´t liked a show, recognizing the effort that was made to create it or knowing that people have different tastes. So keep in mind that this is nothing more than my personal opinion about a show that I just didn´t like.
