I wasn't very happy with it either. I marathoned all of this season yesterday before the finale and honestly the final Johnny Karate episode felt like more of a finale than this one did? But that may be because, like you, I'm not the biggest fan of the future plot.
I agree with you about April, it really did seem like she was only doing it for Andy. Now that I'm thinking about it I feel like maybe adoption would have been a more fitting route for them. Them planning to adopt a younger kid but then their case worker mentions how the older they are the less likely they are to get adopted and April then wanting to adopt a surly teenager.
I enjoyed it overall though! I loved Chris and Ann, though there wasn't nearly enough of them, and Leslie as governor, and I loved Gary's flash forward. Mainly, I'm just thankful it wasn't another epic failure a la How I Met Your Mother.
