AV Club reviews "Enlightened" season finale "Agent of Change."

A bigger-than-usual fuck-up must be the price of a huge victory, because that board-room scene is delicious, like the country club scene from “No Doubt” cranked to 11. Once again, Amy Jellicoe and Charles Szidon don’t really mess around. “I’m just a woman who’s over it. I’m tired of watching the world fall apart because of guys like you. I tried to take a little power back.” She refuses to cooperate and calmly tells him how rich he got by lying, cheating, and hurting. He resorts to the historical hysteric offense and tosses off a “cunt” or two. Amy makes us proud. She slowly looks back up and says, “Well, if caring about something other than money is dopey, I’m a fucking moron.” She gets up, walks out, and stands there almost laughing at Charles’ rage, and he’s the one who shouts obscenities through a closing elevator door this time. Enlightened is rarely so high-contrast. Amy is finally heroic, and Charles is utterly despicable. There’s that national catharsis I was looking for. 

... 

Amy watches footage of the Syrian uprising as she wonders whether she produces change or chaos (as if they’re mutually exclusive). Amy’s wake turns out to be fairly ordered, no? The ex-Cogentivans would have wound up free agents regardless, all the other main characters affirm connection at the end, and the response to Jeff’s story is characteristically corporate and lawyerly.

 My estimation of Laura Dern and Mike just went way up.
