Oh man, Alex, you just put into words everything I am feeling -- including things I didn't even realize I was feeling.
I just told my friend that this season felt so pointless. It was not the show I've watched for the past three years. I'm not even going to touch on the first half of the season, but they tried to shove waaaaaay too much into the final six and it did not work AT ALL.
The engagement thing should have never been brought up. There was literally no point to it except to disappoint the fans and say 'ha ha, we got you!' in the finale. I mean, they built it up SO MUCH and looking back I can't help but wonder why they did it. This is not me being a whiny fangirl, but that was CRUEL. We saw the ring, their little proposal conversation, the fake proposals, and THE FIRST 45 MINUTES OF THIS EPISODE. Why was that necessary? I really want to know. Because now Pam is disappointed for no reason and the Andy/Angela thing is never going to work and it's so CONTRIVED.
I don't know what they were trying to accomplish with that finale. I truly believed that we were going to get payoffs in this episode to make up for the whole season. Instead, I'm left not really even wanting to watch.

Just a total disappointment all around.
