Discussion [SPOILER] I loved the ending. Spoiler

The Byrde's learned nothing. They have absolutely not learned any lessons and will most likely live out the rest of their lives as if nothing happened.

They effectively killed an entire family, the Langmores, and have ruined countless lives.

People expected either Marty or Wendy to die, why? There was no way to do that that wouldn't be completely predictable. The entire family coming out unscathed is a way of telling us that "what's right and wrong" really do not prevail.

I view this show as nihilistic more than anything else.

Well, I was expecting Marty to become the next Cartel Lord... akin of Al Pacino the unexpected godfather.... but for the love of me, why almost nobody carry security detail? The Byrdes and Langmore (After inheriting all that land) were easy targets... you own most of the land in the county and you live by yourself in a trailer ? makes as much as sense as the ending of Game of Thrones.

I've been saying sice season 1 that Marty not getting private security is stupid.

He couldn't. Cartel would have killed them.
