See that didn't happen with ABP and it ended up being cancelled with no series finale

I think that CBS will allow the show time to make a finale that would be appropriate.

Not to mention.... "Bunker Madness" was the most incredibly awful and tasteless episode ever. Stephanie is a pothead? Give me a friggin' break!

It's painful to know that what was once the greatest sitcom in history ended as one of the worst. In my opinion, at least.
I thought it was a good episode with a bad premise. Wasn't Stephanie a cheerleader? Remember at the end of the prior season Stephanie was stoked because she had just made the squad.

Extra curricular activities had strict rules against drug use. Being caught with pot would have meant immediate dismissal from the squad and surely Stephanie was smart enough she would have never put her spot at risk just to smoke marijuana with a bunch of troubled classmates.
