Firaaq - Last episode

Firaaq FINALLY wrapped up and I'm sure I'm not the only one who lost interest after the appearances of Haider and Tabbasum came to a conclusion. Quite frankly, if the drama was about Imroze and Paiman, I don't feel the writer did justice to either character. For a psychologist, Imroze showed no understanding of human nature (eaves dropping on conversations...really??) and poor Paiman couldn't make up her mind - to leave or not to leave, that was ALWAYS her question...

So here were my thoughts out loud watching the final episode... (and a few snippets from me too)

You screwed up, she's hopping mad at you -- and you are going to tell HER how to make chai? Kounsi fake university se psychology pardhi hei is nei aakhir?

Probably this one

Wait - so he was so stressed he started to exhibit 'cancer' symptoms? *Sigh* Do writers even consider getting a professional to validate their claims? 

His explanation almost makes sense...I feel convinced...?

 yeah...me too, totally convinced

The only good thing about Hareem's character, is Hira being able to prove she can do characters that aren't always over the top. Bravo Hira.

Chalo. Another self-sacrifice. *Sigh*

I love these one-on-ones the wives keep having. It's like they are BFFs, they just don't know it yet. (Also proves that neither trusts the psychologist to resolve the problem. Even the characters don't have faith in his professional ability. Sad.)

To resolve the issues, everyone sits down to tea...Because that's totally normal behavior in this situation.

Then Imroze - the failure of a psychologist - ki dil ki baath zubaan par aa he gaee, "Let's just all live together my darlings." #DoBiwiSyndrome

And Hareem - who should've been a psychologist - pushes the right buttons to get him to sign her divorce papers. #TeamHareem

I'm sorry, but what else did you expect from this fraud psychologist, who gave this brilliant advice to his one and only patient

Do I even need to comment on this kid's monologue? 

And Paiman and Imroze continue to talk. Inki love story kissi tarhaan khatam nahi ho pa rahee. Ufff...

Ummm he just divorced Hareem. Now Paiman wants to leave? I'm confused. Paiman issi leeaye rukki thi? Is this like a payback plan?

I'd like to take a moment here and point out that Paiman has spent half this drama packing and unpacking her suitcase. First when she left Maa ji's house for Shams. Then She left Shams's house for Imroze.  Then from America to random aunty in Pakistan's house. Then twice from random aunty's house to the airport, and finally this. Completely wasted opportunity for some product placement. "This drama is brought to you by Samsonite"

I don't know what's more impressive - that Mohib Mirza wore the same clothes through out the whole episode - or that he wakes up with awesome hair. I mean, let's take a minute to acknowledge our jealousy, that Aamina Sheikh wakes up next to all this hotness everyday. #Woof

Bhaago Imroze bhaago! 3 minutes is plenty of time to rush to the airport, chase her down to the boarding gate, stop her plane, beg for forgiveness, confess your eternal devotion, and hug and make up!

Array haan....Yeh bhi tu thay dramay mein. (Never did figure out why Sara was desperate to marry Paiman off to Roomi. She tried like twice. I feel like I deserve to know why....just saying.)

Wait - what? Roomi - the only good guy in this whole drama - ends up alone? Yeh kahaan ka insaaf hei?
(Psst...Roomi, Hareem is available...)

So there you have it. Did I enjoy this drama? Sure, it had twists and turns and you always wanted to know what would happen next. But would I watch it again (which is my measuring scale of how good a drama really was), I'm pretty sure I wouldn't. Through out the whole drama it felt like you were watching a hogde-podge of story lines and quite frankly I found Sanam Saeed's monologues quite a bit (read: very) boring. 

Apparently Firaaq is being replaced by (yet another) dosari biwi drama...tell me it isn't so! Yaayy! Can't wait.
