It's the series finale for this poor, canceled, terrible show. It started with a nifty plane disappearance, and it ends with one of the dumbest alien invasion plots ever aired on television finally limping to fruition. Or maybe not! Sophia's pretty incompetent, so maybe it won't happen. Luckily for her, the humans she's trying to exterminate are even dumber than she is.
But, clearly this thing will end on a cliffhanger, and since this show is canceled we'll never find out who won this battle of the idiots in the end. So farewell, The Event. I'll miss your screwed-up timelines, your nonsensical writing, your characters that change on a dime, your dropped plot points and characters, and even those rare instances when you were awesome, like that time you sucked a building into a vortex. I will not, however, miss Jason Ritter's facial hair. Hopefully, that got canceled too.
The Event airs on NBC tonight at 9 PM, opposite the premiere of The Bachelorette (ABC), the series finale of The Chicago Code (Fox) and The Real Housewives of New Jersey (Bravo).

Did we ever find out what the actual "event" was?
Simone mentioned it briefly, there was a moment that appeared to be last minute editing. A voice overdub of Simon in the middle of the finale that was pointless since the overdub was obviously someone elses voice and the voice says something about them being here before humans, then it returns to Simon's real voice and he says, "we were here first". WTF was the point of that.. twas stupid, pointless and of course ended in the "arrival" cliffhanger that doesn't matter now.
Aw, I hope Laura Innes finds another show to work on, STAT.
