Twenty years, huh? It's a crying shame that "Married..." went out with a whimper and not a bang. If memory serves, "Chicago Shoe Exchange" was the final episode aired but not produced; the hour-long "finale"--if you even want to call it that--was the two-episode arc "The Desperate Half Hour" and "How To Marry A Moron," which aired on Fox the month before. "Married..." deserved a far better finale than that; Fox's abrupt cancellation of "Married..." in the spring of 1997 was a slap in the face to not only the fans, but also to the cast itself.

I agree, it just dropped with no real finale.
