I agree with you, based on how S1 ended I was expecting the same as your spoiler and was surprised when that didn't happen. I guess for actor reasons that is not do-able though?

Overall I liked UA. I think the first episode of S1 is very good, put a lot of mystery and intrigue out there but then didn't really deliver on the next few episodes, before picking up again towards the end - they just got too bogged down in the characters back story and didn't progress the "current day" plot enough for episodes maybe 2-5 ish.

The actual S1 ending was disappointing, as I agree the "twist" was very predictable and nothing was resolved for the season finale so it left me a little disappointed. The actual run up to the finale over the last few episodes was enjoyable though.

Agree with most that S2 was better, pacing was better as they didn't have to spend too long on backstory for the characters. I like how quirky it was, the styling and the humour.

I agree there's nothing original there but that doesn't bother me if its done well, it's pretty rare that something truly original comes along and impresses me these days.
