The Episode Review
In the finale of Single Drunk Female, Sam and James have a tense standoff that culminates in a physical altercation. We are left to wonder what will happen next between them, and whether or not their relationship can still be salvaged.
The season ended with a bang for the relationship between Sam and Brit. Their subplot was loosely thrown together, so I don’t have many strong feelings about their marriage. But as for Brit’s friendship with Sam–they have tentatively begun to heal their relationship, and this finale has given us the first solid step in that process.
It’s evident that Sam has come such a long way in her recovery. This episode doesn’t rely on cheap ploys to get Sam drinking again and create drama. I certainly expected this to happen at some point, but writers took the less trodden path.
After facing the challenges of her recovery in the finale, seeing Sam succeed has been rewarding. Although the show can be trite at times, Sam is an authentic character we love to see succeed. ..
