That's freaking awful.
(Not that the show or episode was bad, but what happened in that episode...towards the end.)
Anyways, Air is pretty good so far. It's worth a watch if you haven't seen it already.

That was the last episode of the series that I liked. Everything from there just made no sense to me at all. I read someone's explanation for it somewhere on the internet, and, if what I read was what really happened, then the anime did a terrible job of explaining it. It's probably a case of the visual novel explains the ending better than the anime. (like Clannad)
