Have you seen the series finale of Bloodline yet? Recently, co-creator Todd A. Kessler spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about the end of the Netflix TV show.
The drama centers on the Rayburns, a family with dark secrets who reside in the Florida Keys. The cast includes Kyle Chandler, Ben Mendelsohn, Linda Cardellini, Norbert Leo Butz, Jacinda Barrett, Jamie McShane, Enrique Murciano, Sam Shepard, and Sissy Spacek.
WARNING: BLOODLINE SPOILERS AHEAD!
In the interview, Kessler explained that the last scene of Bloodline is supposed to be open-ended:
It’s meant to leave the audience with answering it for themselves: What is the right thing to do? Is the right thing to do to confess to Nolan about what happened, and that helps clear John’s conscience and may in essence lead to changing the family and changing the family dynamic? But it also puts a huge burden onto Nolan because what is he going to do with that truth? So much of this third season is about putting the audience in the shoes of these characters, trying to align the audience with the characters’ predicament. It’s not meant to write out that whole scene and have it portrayed because in essence we’re watching it play out.”
Kessler later said that he hopes the show and the characters will stick with viewers:
Hopefully the experience of the series and spending time with the characters is one that will resonate and reverberate and maybe comes to mind maybe six months later or a year later or who knows how much afterwards. Our approach in general is not to have all of the ends resolved but hopefully it sticks with you as the characters have stuck with us.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Bloodline? Did you like the series finale?
Just watched all 3 seasons…..please bring a season 4….you must finish for us fans what you all created! Awesome cast….
TOO many unanswered questions….had me sitting on the edge of my seat! Although the 9th episode of season 3 was VERY confusing….very upsetting!!!…and so totally unfair for ur faithful fans.
PLEASE PLEASE reconsider and bring us another intense season….with all the original cast members!!
I LOVE Bloodline and have been patiently awaiting NETFLIXX to finish it. The story deserves to be told to all of us who can’t get this captivating setting, character depth and Family Bloodline off our minds! How CRUEL …..
I loved Bloodline watched every one . Was hoping to see it come back in 2018. Seen 2017 it was great.
I agree. Loved everything up until the last 2 episodes.very confusing and a rushed finish.
It was a great series the first two seasons. The third season then got to far fetched and the last 2 episodes were a total waste of my time.
Unfortunately, the writer chose not to give us a conclusion and decided to be “artistic” and hope that the viewers would think about potential endings long after the last show aired. I personally feel like I wish that I hadn’t wasted the time watching all 3 seasons. It was disappointing, much like the “Lost” series.
I didn’t get to see it yet.which is odd since I was hoping for it’s return.I loved it and was worried there would be no closure
I watched all three seasons of Bloodline and couldn’t wait for this last season to come out. I LOVED Season 1 and 2; was ambivalent about season 3 episodes until the last TWO episodes. The next to the last episode was RIDICULOUS, and the last episode SUCKED. Had I known ahead of time how this series would end, then I would have NEVER watched a single episode. When will writers get a clue WE want THEM to FINISH a series NOT leave it up to us. The dissatisfaction to the conclusion of Sopranos and Lost SHOULD have told writers about… Read more »
