You Take The High Road

It would have been fine if they stopped at 10
While it was nice to see what happened to the characters we'd come to know and love for one more year, the crazy adding of so many new characters really detracted from the show. It's practically a new cast this year. Not to mention, if you're looking for something "realistic" to watch, this is not the show or season. It is common in this show for the least likely scenario to play out again and again and again. It's rather predictable.

There were things I liked about this season. It was nice to see the transformation that Lucy's character went through. I also liked to see how Ruthie's intelligence allowed for her to graduate early. I loved the character of Margaret -- quirky, funny, sweet, and weird.

Overall I am glad I finished watching the series, but I think I would have been just as happy for it to be over at season 10.

Great Show
Great show from season one to season eleven! This show will make you laugh, then can also make you cry. It's a show that the whole family can watch together.

Really good but...
I really enjoyed this season, but it was not as good as previous ones. I felt they left some questions unanswered and never brought the older children back to help tie up loose ends. And in the final episode, how in the world were ALL those people going to fit in the RV??

But all those minor faults are just mostly my "Pollyanna" desire for happy endings and everything explained! That's not real life...things just don't get tied up with a ribbon and everyone rides into the sunset to a "happily ever after"!! All in all, things were left just the way life is...with unanswered questions and hopes and dreams and varied possibilities. A delightful family story, dealing with real life problems and solutions.
