Sorry it is over, but i am glad in a way because now i can get to sleep early and not be so tired at work. that show intriqued me so much that i could not wait to see each week.
That kind of surprised me also. It wasn't that dangerous in Miami Beach and it was pretty laid back, but there was definitely a lot of property theft, and you had to lock everything--we had an alarm system.

He did break in--it wasn't wide open, but how did he know the guy was out of town and wouldn't walk in on him? And amazingly--he knew how to work all the remotes for all the tvs as soon as he walked in the door (just a detail, but I remember remotes were a little more complicated in those days).

I loved this series too. The acting was great, especially Darren Criss. I wish they had done a screen crawl at the end telling us what happened to everyone afterwards.

Thanks for the clarification. I watched the finale twice and tried to figure out who he was, thought he was an undercover detective, but get it now since he did receive a phone call. Must have missed the conversation.

I thought this series was excellent. But, for some reason, maybe the name, maybe the way it was promoted, it had very few viewers.

I don't know about the last episode but the second to last had fewer than 1 million.

I'm sure Netflix or Amazon will pick it up for streaming. Maybe it will do better there.

For those interested, here's a long - and very worthy - examination of Andrew Cunanan.

Quote:
The Killer’s Trail

The shocking Mob-style execution of fashion designer Gianni Versace appears to have been the crescendo of a cross-country murder spree that landed 27-year-old Andrew Cunanan on the F.B.I.’s Ten Most Wanted list. From the truth about Cunanan’s childhood, through his free-spending days at the heart of San Diego’s gay society, to the bloody crime scenes he left behind in Minneapolis, Chicago, New Jersey, and Miami, the author follows the twisted psychological path that ended only when Cunanan turned the .40-caliber murder weapon on himself.

I LOVED the series, am so sorry to see it end. Darren Criss was crazy good in his role as Andrew Cunanan. I really thought everyone was very convincing, Penelope Cruz, Ricky Martin...The story line held my interest every minute of each episode. The OJ Simpson story was done very well also, I look forward to more of these FX series.
