I know not everybody liked this, but I loved that they resolved the Neolution conflict halfway through and devoted so much time to how the sisters are moving forward with their lives now that they're finally free. This is what they were fighting for all this time, and it was important to me to see them beginning to make steps toward living normal lives. I also thought that it felt real and true that Sarah was struggling; that all her problems weren't resolved by the violent expedient of smashing P.T. Westmorland's head in. I could have done without Donnie's underwear, but I guess we had to expect it. I loved seeing Delphine and Cosima happy and easy together, and also doing meaningful work together ruing all the Ledas (of course I wanted more of them, but that was always going to be the case). I was never wildly invested in Helena's pregnancy, so that as the big climax of the series fell a bit short for me, but it was nice to see her contentedly settling into motherhood while remaining her quirky self. I thought Rachel's resolution was perfect. And I really liked the last scene, ambiguous but optimistic, of Sarah and family making S's house their own with the new colorful artwork, and setting out for something as banal but beautiful as a family day at the beach.
You summed it up perfectly

And I agree that it completely made sense that Sarah was struggling. I alwasy wondered what it would be like for her when she finally stopped running.
