The episodes after the 'series finale' - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I don't understand why Oxygen just doesn't put these episodes before the actual series finale? Viewers would not be confused if they did that.

Stupid NBC could've at least stuck with the series during it's final season instead of pulling it off and then bringing it back. Well at least they showed the series finale but still that was pretty low.

I never did ever see all those episodes. I saw the series final but that was it.

I think they're just following the order as it's listed on tvtome.com. The finale episodes are the last two in terms of production order numbers, so it'll be interesting to see once (if) season six is released on dvd where they place the unaired episodes and the series finale.

The way those episodes were always shown out of sequence is very ********. How much effort does it take to move the last 2 episodes to follow those other shows? If this were a show like the Jeffersons where there was no real continuity from one episode to the next it wouldn't matter, but ADW had an extremely intricate degree of continuity form one episode to the next.

I just thought it would be common sense to air the Two Part finale as the last episodes for that season-lol What is Oxygen doing?

They ran out of order in local syndication as well. It's been that way ever since those episodes were syndicated. I guess no one ever wrote in to voice a complaint about it or whoever owns the show said "screw you all".

With the station you're talking about, it's not just those last few episodes. They'd jump from mid-season 3 to season 4 back to season 2.

I agree with you. Oxygen could just put them in order.

I remember when our Fox affiliate in Atlanta aired the reruns, they actually aired them in its correct production order. I think NBC could have did more with the show during the last season.

I don't think a network is concerned about doing anything with a show when the ratings are getting lower and lower. That was the case with ADW during it's last season

The 6th season was going to be the last season anyway, so the ratings factor doesn't really count.

How do you that the 6th season was going to the last?

I remember when Cosby started his 8th season of TCS, it was also said that ADW was going to end that yr also. Those were my two fav shows back then.

ADW was on another season after the Cosby Show went off.
