This whole season was a mess and this was a fitting finale to it. Felix/Karma and Lauren/Liam felt rushed and out of nowhere. Sabrina began as such a terrible character that is hard for me to root for her and Amy, especially when their relationship is just a reverse Karmy.
The show had some potential but didn't live up to the expectations. Oh well.
Lame ending for the series, but maybe it's just as well because I don't like any of the couples that it landed on. Felix deserves much, much better. It was great that this show really tried to accept everyone for who they are, but this season really didn't have the magic anymore. Still, I will miss seeing Rita Volk on my screen every week. <3
I'm not sure why everyone is so shocked about it. Faking It getting cancelled was a long time coming. It got high ratings because the first season was something a lot of us could relate to, the whole Maybe-She'll-Be-Gay-For-Me! thing. But THAT was the only good part about Faking It. Everything else was the usual MTV crap. Perhaps the writers were not aware that it wasn't their plotlines that people liked, but AMY AND KARMA alone. I hope that makes sense. They should've prioritized the LESBIAN/AMY&KARMA aspect of the show, instead of hurling bland crap at us--I mean, who cares about Liam Booker's bar mitzvah?? You know I had to google that guy's name because he's so unremarkable!
It is such a shame though. I was dead set on watching Faking It until the end because I figured that maybe SOMEHOW they'd realize what they're doing WRONG and focus on Amy and Karma's relationship. Sigh
So apparently this is how the creator was going to end it if he got the chance to end it properly: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/faking-what-would-have-happened-894311
Not necessarily happy happy, but Karmy would have happened.
Literally that's how I feel about this show!! I also didn't know it got canceled till now... But I guessed season 3 was going to be the last one, but I thought they were going to do 20 episodes like season 2... I was expecting for the mid-season break, but not for the finale... It caught me off guard.
They had a big oportunity for make a great show and they didn't. Season 1 was great and gave us big expectations but they lost that in the middle of season 2. Karma and Amy have a lot of chemistry on screen and that was the reason for why they got a 3rd chance, but they waste this doing just more crap and dramas. Sadly for the cast, I really like Katie Stevens and Rita Volk.

I just realized that this is the last episode ever because this show got canceled. Honestly, I'm a bit upset. This show has been my guilty pleasure for a while now. There were a lot of awkward and just simply stupid things going on, but I was still excited to watch a new episode every week.
It didn't feel like a series finale. They were probably planning on doing season 4 before it got canceled, so I guess they wanted to show in what direction season 4 would go. But I don't think it would've been a good direction anyway.
I just can't stand shows where they're all making around with each other. Why can't we just keep some platonic relationships? Felix and Karma had a great base for a friendship because they both cared about Amy. And then they started to like each other because Felix realized that Karma isn't shallow and actually does a lot to make Amy happy and Karma realized that Felix is a nice guy who honestly wants to see Amy happy as well. Why did that have to lead to another romance? And don't even get me started on Liam and Lauren. I saw that coming from so far ahead, but I still couldn't believe they pulled through with that romance because it's beyond ridiculous.
This show had a lot of potential. I really enjoyed that they added intersexual, gay, polyamorous and transgender characters. It's a MTV show and every episode had 20 minutes and only 10 episodes for every season, so I didn't even expect these characters to be perfectly fleshed out, but it was still nice to see them.
On the other hand there are problems that never got solved, e.g. that whole bisexuality thing. It got mentioned one time by a bisexual character who was about to have a threesome with a guy and a girl which just felt insulting to me because bisexuality doesn't mean having sex with two people at the same time. I would've just loved to see Amy actually talking with Karma about the possibility of being bisexual.
And of course the whole Amy/Karma thing. We never got any closure.
I don't even know where I'm going with this. I just wanted to write down some thought I had about this episode/show.
All in all this show started out really interesting, but they kind of ruined it with all that unnecessary drama and weird relationships. But I still enjoyed it in some way and I'm a bit sad we never got any closure.
