Nov 1, 2021 · Victoria. Episode 10 of Y: The Last Man begins this finale with everyone converging toward Yorick’s location. He is the end-goal here, and orchestral singing humming in Agent 355’s mind starts us off on an ominous note. She’s been sleepwalking, and wakes up in the middle of the street on her back. These scenes are the proverbial calm ...

Spoilers follow for Y: The Last Man's finale, "Victoria," which lands Nov. 1 on FX on Hulu.
Y: The Last Man wrapped up its first season -- and series, if the show doesn't find a new home -- with (more) welcome chaos, a handful of satisfying moments, and a notable flashback string involving Hero being an utter s*** to her family. Considering all the violence last week, the aftermath of the D.C. storyline could have used a few more minutes, besides Kimberly's sex dream about Yorick and Jennifer getting nabbed, but the need to keep things lean is also understandable.
Matt Fowler gave the three-episode premiere of Y: The Last Man a 6/10, writing, "the tale definitely has unique elements and a ghastly hook, but the actual doomsday-focused moments don't land as provocatively as intended given the overcrowded landscape of dystopian ruin in pop culture."
Nora's arc throughout this season has been one of the more fascinating to watch. Of all the characters, she best represents the balance between loving men in her life and also having had her life rudely dictated by men. Now, she's in pure survival mode, but from a much wiser and more practical standpoint than Roxanne, who was revealed to be as petulant and power hungry as the men she despised. And -- yup! -- it was cool to have her hear that right before Nora unceremoniously shot her down her in front of everyone. Now it's Nora and Hero, believing Jennifer (and the government) to be dead, leading the Amazons under a new, less-draconian directive. All in all, it was a good outcome for this part of the story.
It's easy to harshly judge Hero for her choices -- from the adultery to the accidental murder to the brainwashing, to (now) her behavior in the flashback -- but Nora had a much better spin on Hero's contrarian nature. She likened Hero to herself, as a woman who buckled under the pressure to be perfect in a man's world. Hero hadn't been able to maintain the façade, though. While Nora pushed through it all, Hero buckled under the expectations and it sent her down a different, somewhat destructive path.
Yorick's breakdown was long overdue.

Sonia getting taken out quickly didn't quite have the bite the show was aiming for, since she seemed like a doomed character from the start (especially now that Yorick is headed to Beth), but the time these past few episodes have taken to strengthen the bond between 355, Yorick, and Allison really helped mold them into a trio you care about. We may never see these three again so it's nice to know they're at a good place now as they head into the mysterious maw of the Culper Ring.
Between last week's episode and this week's finale, Y: The Last Man closed up shop with a handful of worthwhile emotional moments and some big and unique siege attempts gone sideways. It was a good move to split the two major storylines (now that a couple have converged) over two weeks, though the finale could have used a few more minutes spent wit...
