They can't end it with a "they all lived happily ever after" type ending, because it's not true.

I didn't say it was a copout, just that it was a little ham-fisted. What bothered me was Michael turning into Omar and Dukie turning into Bubbles. Like, I get that their stories might play out in a similar way, but it seemed like the characters at the very end were Omar Jr. and Bubbles Jr. instead of Michael and Dukie, all in the name of trying to make a lolobvious point. Didn't ring true, and didn't seem consistent with the verisimilitude (drink!) of the show.
Edit: Oh yeah and Sydnor becoming McNulty. HEY LOOK IT'S THE EXACT SAME CONVERSATION WITH THE EXACT SAME JUDGE! Horse****.
