The Season finale.....your thoughts? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

What did you all think of the finale? I saw it. What are your thoughts? Too abrupt? Too quick? Not enough plot? What did you think of the whole thing? You thought they could have been a more tighter closure than the one they gave us. What did you all thinK?

I fully agree, but that could be because we didn't want it to end, but if you look at it objectively it was unusual and well done.

I thought it was OK. I liked the end of the episode when the kids wanted to dedicate the last song to Charles. (they gave a "he was always there for us" speech) When he went on stage with them, Sarah said "Hit it, Mike", and then the "Charles in Charge" theme song played, and all the cast members were hugging on stage. Looked like the kid who played Adam was crying. (I was a bit misty-eyed, myself...)

I thought that the tag scene was cute; when Charles was sleeping on the couch, and then he could hear the voices of the cast members. He told them that he dreamt that he was an actor named "Scott", and they told him that he was an actor on a TV show. "Why do you think the hands on that clock never move!"

"Did you ever notice that you don't have a last name?" They then said something like "Anytime you need us, just think of us and we'll be there for you." or something along those lines. After a few seconds, he turns around and the Powells and Buddy were standing there. (they may have given him a Poltergeist "We're baaack!")

After the tag scene, during the end credits, they showed the studio audience swaying back and forth while singing the Charles in Charge theme song. That was neat...

I saw the episode a few weeks ago, so I'm a bit fuzzy on some parts. I think there was another joke about the clock early in the ep, Charles was setting it and saying "You're a clock, you're supposed to be telling me the time." I liked those jokes, because I always noticed that the damn thing never changed throughout the series.

If you look at the people seated in the front, while there singing the theme, you will see, his Father, Mother, Grandmother, Sister, Brother and Pamela Anderson

I noticed that at the end of the credits.

the full line of that joke is: "you're a clock, you're supposed to tell me what time it is, I'm not supposed to tell you!" I love that line delivery. I say it all the time in my everyday life.

So true!

Nighthawk76 · 04-03-2006, 11:50 PM

I think it is an overall good episode. Though I think the sing-a-long was a little corny.

aalady · 04-04-2006, 04:48 AM

It may have seemed corny, but I thought it was sweet of him to manage to include his family at the finale. It showed his respect and affection for them, sometimes corny is terrific.

I always wanted to be an audience member and see what the set was like in Charles In Charge. Of course, that set doesn't exist anymore...

Wish I was there to see what the interior looked like, you know...

Hi, im Marty, and I am new to the board. over the the last 2 years I have been reading alot of trash about people shunning our show charles in charge for what it is. I am a big fan of the show, the first season just arrived yesterday. I am having a great time reliving one of my most beloved tv series in all the world. and it is a travesty to read these post that us fans should be institutionalized or have a mental problem for being such fans of the series. I am not putting anyone down on this board, I am on your side, completely. as I said this is my first time posting. we are fans of this great gem. and we have the right to watch charles in charge without being labled as mentally ill. that in my opinion is simply a poor excuse. so anybody who post messages putting us charles in charge fans down. go somewhere else. thank you. and again, I am on the peoples side from this sitcoms online website. thank you.

No one is saying anything bad about the show. Just honest opinions, nothing more.

We all know CIC is a good show.

I really did like The Season Finale of Charles In Charge

88survivor · 04-14-2006, 10:00 PM

That was well done. I wonder what Scott would comment on the ending itself....you know, commetary at the end.....just a thought.
