Eh, one last spin with the gang I s'pose.

My understanding was that Wiener burned his 'planned' ending last year and that AMC's decision to split the season and add more time in kinda messed everything up.

So to an extent, there is no reason it was made from a purely artistic standpoing - Wiener appeared to have told the story he wanted to tell. And really, Bert's death and the acquisition by McCann as last season's finale really would have been a perfect wrapup to the series.

This appears to be easy money for Wiener and yes, something of an epilogue. Hell, you could almost even call it fan-service for a guy that's almost as opposed to it as George Martin.
