Theo again after the graduation was over. I would have thought that Theo would have had a final moment with his parents instead of Snobish Clair and Goofy Cliff having a scene by their self.

Theo is there after the graduation. Cliff and Clair ask him if he is all ready for the trip to Singapore, he says he is, and they tell him how proud they are of him. Then he goes off to a graduation party. Then there is the final scene between Cliff and Clair.

To me, the weird thing about the final episode is that there is very little focus on any of the characters other than Theo. It's like everyone else just stands in the background while the show revolves around Theo. Not that I have a problem with Theo, I just think everybody should have had a more important role in the finale.

I definitely think they could have done more with the final episode, but i still think it was a good ending. Cliff and Claire are the backbone of the family and thought it was great that it ended with them. I'd rather it end with those two than with theo.
The focus on Theo was much, but that was because it was his graduation day, so of course it's going to be about him.
definitely they could have chosen an ending which encompassed the whole show and characters, but they chose to go with a culmination of theo's education, which is very important in the show.
I liked it the finale, there's so many different ways to end a show like that.

i know it may sound cheezy but the final epi moved me a bit... I liked how Cliff pushed the doorbell and they danced out to the audience... But I agree they could have done more...
