I actually think the ending was very cautiously assembled, and while I never touched on it in the article, that brief second of black in between the show and the credits is equally as important. It goes from a super tense situation to blackness and your mind is trying to figure out what the heck happened, and then you're just slammed with the credits that makes the punchline abundantly clear and in-your-face. The issue is that CN cut off both - even preserving that second of black would've done miracles in giving your mind a brief period of ''"What?" ''but it's hard to even tell the episode ended properly without any signifier.

(When we first called, I believe you said that you saw it without the credits, but it just ended instead of cutting to commercials, so there's still some silence preserved to allow those thoughts to sink in.)

So yes, in conclusion, TTG! ruins everything. That is all.
