This finale is full of dead things: Jopari, a few witches, many Magisterium (Magisteri?), and, lest we forget, our beloved aeronaut. But we are also waving goodbye to the deftness -- and dare we say subtlety -- that characterized much of this season, as we found this finale a bit inert. Come along with us as we break it all down and try to buck ourselves up, as we finish season two of the His Dark Materials television show.
