What does everyone think the saddest series finale is.

I was definitely sad over the Cheers final, but I think I was more disappointed than sad. I think the saddest finale would be M*A*S*H. Especially, the part with the baby on the bus. Anyone who saw the finale will know what I'm talking about.

Roseanne- Dan dies
Seinfeld- They all go to jail
Newhart- The whole show being a dream

jayman75 · 07-24-2002, 06:24 PM

Ummm, without question... The Wonder Years

When the narrator came on and said "... and Wayne took over two years later, when Dad died..." I get chills everytime...

SO GOOD!

Czas na Zywiec · 07-24-2002, 07:01 PM

Probably Wonder Years and Golden Girls.

Mary Tyler Moore comes to mind. The group hug, everyone going to get the kleenex on Mary's desk and Mary turning out the lights at WJM

I agree with you 100%!!!!! Just reading your post, I'm having to wipe away a few tears. Kevin and Winnie do not end up together, Dad passes away, etc. It was so sad...but true to life.

Cheers because those last lines "Sorry, We're Closed", really was sad because all those years of those everyday characters were gone.

EJoshuaP · 07-25-2002, 12:10 PM

3rd Rock had a very sad series finale, but the saddest series finale I ever seen was "Roseanne" where Dan died and the show ended with Roseanne in her writing about how life was without Dan and how she was getting along. That was by far, I believe, the saddest I ever seen.

Will and Grace Fanatic · 07-25-2002, 12:44 PM

I just thought of another one. The Dinosaurs finale where all the characters in the show die.

GoldenFamilyTies · 07-25-2002, 03:02 PM

The Golden Girls.

Ziggy · 07-25-2002, 06:16 PM

I would say definitely Mary Tyler Moore, because I cry every time I see the ending, when she says, "What is a family anyway? They're just people who make you feel less alone and really loved. Thank you for being my family." The way she says it breaks my heart.

OMG, you totally read my mind becuz that was exactly what I was going to say! The "Dinosaurs" finale was the saddest, without a doubt. Not only becuz the characters eventually died, but becuz that show ended -- that was one of the most unique and funniest shows to ever be aired! I miss it -- someone needs to syndicate it!!!!

Three's Company, when they turn off the lights and look at the apartment, I cryed for like 15 minutes.
