Final Serial Commas

I’m a big fan of the rule that, when typing out a list, you should always use a comma after the penultimate item, right before the “and”.

Excellent counterexample here, from a print blurb for a documentary about Merle Haggard:

The documentary was filmed over three years. Among those interviewed were his two wives, Kris Kristofferson and Robert Duvall.
