i guess i think the ending is adorable in that avon stands over blake's body?
as for general reception - i think now most people are in agreement that it's very dramatic and interesting (i'm sort of in the minority, i think, although i could be wrong, for having major qualms with the whole bounty hunter business that keep 'blake' out of my top ten). and of course it features everyone's favourite character as the last man standing in a very dramatic montage. it'd be different if dayna was the only one left alive (i like dayna, but you know).
that said, there is certainly still that fan reaction of 'time to fix that', but i dont think your average PGP is motivated by hate of 'blake', so much as 'what are going to do with an ending where almost everyone is dead??' i mean, some people do write plausible PGP fics, but i prefer blake is president and everyone is happy... because that's the sort of person i am.
i also think it's fair to say that the ending was more disliked at the tme it was shot by the general public - whereas in fandom we know we can have our cake (really exciting dramatic conclusion, avon standing over blake's body) AND eat it too (and blake recovered from that wound and everyone else was just stunned, hooray). whereas for general public - that was it.
