Should Have Been a Smarter Ending

Warning: Spoilers
I get that the show had to end; actors want to move on at some point. To me this ending misrepresented what had previously been vary smart, resourceful characters. The body search, the planting of a the treasure clue, all the secret conversations in open office spaces, Bull tracking down the witness. Seriously? If you are going to break the most basic legal responsibility, clandestine would be the way to go.

And then Jason completely violating his client and the jury process? His leaving the firm won't be enough to salvage TACs reputation, and the plaintiff is going to sue them all! Then, discovery in that civil suit likely leads right to a trail of phone calls, borrowed equipment; midnight car trips to the murder site, etc. That suggest culpability of far more than just Bull.

I wanted a smart, surprising solution that took care of the bad guy and maintained the team's integrity.

I thought with Bull's "conversation" with his dead professor/mentor in a previous episode and one of his former clients surfacing, Bull would solve this in some unexpected way and decide to leave it all and return to private practice and/or teaching in the field of psychiatry (another field where client confidentiality is sacrosanct).

This was a sad, stupid ending for me.

That being said, it was a good show for 6 years and I appreciate the entertainment it provided.
