Ducky Does TV has a great recap of the season finale, calling it ‘a show that deserved so much more attention than it received’.

Among the highlights:

Swingtown surpassed it’s randy premise and proved to be a show about change on the cusp of the bicentennial and it only got better as the summer went on.

On the downside, Ducky suggests Swingtown is better off in the viewers’ minds thinking what could be for Season 2, rather than leaving it in the hands of network executives.

There are 13 near amazing hours of television under Swingtown’s belt and barely a misstep to be found. That’s hard to duplicate especially for a show that will be forced to make severe changes in the second season in hopes of drawing in more viewers. When a network or a studio is worried about ratings, it can mean really bad things for a show that is so character driven and so much about the emotional storyline. That’s everything a network fears because it isolates the kind of viewer it attracts.
