And by having them all air on the same day that experience will be sadly lacking as mostly everyone would be rightly focusing their energy on the end and not the brilliance that is sure to proceed it.

Truthfully, the first thing which popped into my head the moment that I opened this thread and noted the marathon format was "wow, Cartoon Network's certainly got this whole let's-get-this-all-over-with-as-quickly-as-possible spirit down pat." Maybe I'm being just a little too negative here, particularly since it's surely the last time that CN's going to give the show any decent kind of spotlight, but screening about a third of the season in a single sitting does feel to me like they're purposefully rushing things somewhat. As you say, it's better than nothing, but often it's better to spread your farewells a little more gently, than to exit in one big, fiery, though abrupt and kind of overwhelming bang.
