Abrupt? Yes. Good? For the most part. What are your thoughts?

Some spoilers might be ahead if you haven't seen the end don't read on.

One: I wouldn't mind seeing a season 3 but the problem is now what. I feel that the main problems have been resolved. If they start all over there really wouldn't be any point.
Two: Roger said that we lose our memories by our own choice. I thing Angel did this also. The problem was that she got sucked into her own world/book when she chose to escape her reality for some odd reason. Roger was the negotiator to help her find her way back and find herself. This was all Angel's world. The other Rosewaters where nothing. There was only one and that was Angel...who wrote the book and set the stage.

Three: Mouth to Mouth...Roger you little dog...you were hitting on Dorothy. Anyway she is his support. He would not function without her. I think they have a more co-dependent relationship where one will cease to exist without the other.

Four: Dastun could have represented Angels consciousness. It was her inner self protesting all that she did but of course he's confused because he didn't know what was going on either due to lack of memory.

Yes these were crazy ending theories. I love it reguardless if it brings up more questions. I don't think there should a third season because I don't know where else for them to go. It was still good though.

My thoughts...

Spoiler :

1) Yes the Military Police stated that they had a Anderson and a Roddenberry squad who turned in theirbadges to join with Dastun.

Gerry and Sylvia Anderson did all the Super-Marionation shows like Fireball XL-5, Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, UFO, and Space:1999(the last two were live action but the acting was described as wooden like the puppets). The season 2 OP was a take off from the UFO theme.

Gene Roddenberry brought us Star Trek, Andromeda, and Earth;Final Conflict. I think Big-O drew heavily upon the holodeck idea from Star Trek, especially from the Voyager episode where the crew used to relax in a little Irish town. The episode dealt with a holodeck program Harry and Tom put together based on a 19th century Irish village. After running the program for so long it became corrupted and the characters started to realize that something was not right.

The holodeck program had androids in it to guide the main characters along in the direction the script dicatated, ergo Big Ear.

The "holodeck" could be nothing more than our real world run on Gods version of a holodeck. And Angel could be the the system Administrator to oversee the program. If you have seen Ah My Goddess you would know what I was referring to.

If this is the case then Big Venus is likely the manifestation of Angel in her retribution or avenging angle form.

Also notice that as Gordon and Angel descend in the elevator the last shown level on the counter is 666. The lowest level in hell and the number of the beast. Angel steps forth, grows wings and flies forward. Gordon steps in and calls out "Let the true creator of this book fill the blank pages with memories. The book glows and the pages turn black and Gordon disappears.

I do not feel that Roger was a android because we have seen him be injured and bleed. I also think I was right in that R. Dorothy is a android with a human soul, ergo like Ghost In The Shell.

And I think Roger finally let slip his feelings for R. Dorothy by expressing regret that she didnt wake him in a gentler way such as mouth to mouth.

crap. Forgot to put in the spoiler closer.

Anyhoo I feel Big-O doesnt need a 3rd season but some OVA's or a movie or 2 would be nice.

That ending didn't make a damn lick of sense. What the hell was going on? I know I'm not a complete idiot, but I sure as hell didn't get Evangelion either. I understood how the Angels and man varied, what the Evas were, and Instrumentality. But I didn't understand the psychology of any of it.

Same thing happened tonight. I can kind of see that R. Dorothy was developed as a buffer, to help Roger/Alex interface with the Bigs. But what the fuck do they define "memories" as, and what does it have to do with a fake city, a flaky woman with nasty scars, a book, and giant robots? Also, what is the deal with Alex Rosewater's father?

None of that crap made any sense.

I can pretty much agree with the pre-stated, that the whole holodeck thing was a metaphor to the clean slate of creation of God's or whatnot. Cause from what it seems, it seems like Angel was in fact God. But somehow forgot herself when she became human. And it seems like Roger is somehow immortal. Cause Alex's father employed Roger before many years ago. Hinting that this kind of situation could've happened before as well. Cause Roger is the one that manages to get Angel to stop making everything fade away, showing that Angel might have in fact been trying to start over everything all over again. Hinting as to why no one could remember anything in the first place. All that really happens in my opinion is that Roger negociated with Angel to keep everyone as who they were before. And so Angel does it, but makes sure that no one can remember what transpired with the mega dueses and Alex etc...

I really hope that that all made sense...
