Is anyone still watching Raising Hope. I got caught up on the last few episodes and I didn't really like them or get the point.

I don't know if I know what you mean by get the point, but I'm still watching and generally finding it pretty darned funny. I'm not madly in love or anything and don't really remember what happened in the last few episodes, but I don't feel disappointed.
Love Raising Hope.
Just realized it's over for the season. I guess the storyline where the serial killer mom comes back did have some "finale" feeling to it, but I somehow missed that. I will admit that as far as finale hoopla goes it was pretty underwhelming and not especially well done. But there was plenty of garden variety funny mixed in.
I still love Raising Hope.
Except for the enormous Jillifonts in one episode, I still like Raising Hope.
It took me awhile to get over the sense of betrayal that particular episode left me with, but in general it's a fun show.
And there is no point. Ever.
The last 2 eps were when Hope's mom miraculously wasn't dead after all and decides to fight Jimmy et al for custody, right? I didn't think it was their strongest work, but still pretty enjoyable.

It's the whole Inside Probe/Mom comes back stories. It just didn't like it and instead of thinking it was funny I just felt annoyed. I wasn't sure if they were going for a possible show finale or what. Usually I'm fine with all the implausible stuff this just bugged me.
I wasn't loving it because of the implausibility, as you said. But when they took the ridiculous all the way to 11 for the ending, it was somehow redeemed for me.
Yeah, I think that's how it went for me, too, Epic.
Also, I am a huge sap and it consistently plays into that quite effectively.
