I thought this season ended up really light in the hot mess department. I wasn't too keen on Lydia's "kiss him!" actually, ut for a show that started with roots in soapy teen romance, I guess it's it that surprising.

Mostly, I thought 6B was just a really strong end to a series that languished in its back half.

See, one of the reasons I use 'hot mess' to describe 6B is that I think the premise of this season was strong, but I think the pacing was a bit all over the place, especially at the beginning until the Sheriff's Station siege episode. I think there are a few reasons for this, the main one being trying to manage a huge cast of characters, many of them new, over several locations. In contrast, I think 6A and 5 were tightly plotted and paced and handled the introduction of new characters well, on top of having fun, menacing villains and satisfying mysteries. Also, though the premise of 6B was good, it's not particularly original - there are plenty of other shows that have dealt with group fear mentality before it and done it better, so it wasn't going to get brownie points on the strength of this premise alone.

But to make up for it, 6B came through with 100% effort on making the fans happy by bringing back characters, throwing in 'shippy' moments, having great character reunions and throwing back to previous seasons in clever ways, especially in the finale. And while this was sometimes very silly (for instance: Jackson and Ethan somehow found each other, got together and are now rich gay playboy werewolves of London? Sure, why not show, let's run with it), it was also really wonderful and entertaining for a long time fan to see tributes like that on a show that had it's dramatic moments but never took itself too seriously.
