I think Tango and his deer will have to start their own club.

that was the lamest end show this isde of Seinfeld - I mean did anyone really believe Ross and Rachel weren't gonna end up together? Give me a bittersweet and realistic ending that actually has the balls that Cheers did - Did Sammy end up with Diane or anyone for that matter at the end - no - why? Because that's what the reality of life is - and that is what made Cheers SO great as a whole - it was a show with true emotional backbone against a backdrop of brilliant comedy - the reason it stands heads and shoulders above Friends IMO - don't get me wrong - Friends was a very funny show - but it can't even be put in the same league as Cheers and tonight's drag it out, suspenseless show is a prime example.

Joey's still pretty hilarious though - it'll be intersting to see how he fares outside of the Friends world - my guess is not nearly as successfully as Frasier did without Cheers.

I thought

it was funny. It'll be missed for sure.
Joey's show, if handled right, could do well. Your right cheese, his character is a crack-up.
Rembrandts are putting out a new album. Great harmonies!
Phoebe always makes me laugh also.
Now Frazier goes also?
Bummer. Two really good comedies.

I don't think it's that unrealistic that they got together...I mean, they had a kid together, they've always liked each other...

I don't think tonight's show HAD to be suspenseful to make it great...fans wanted to see it end RIGHT, and happily ever after...which it did.

Cheers didn't, but it also wasn't the same type of show that Friends was. I think for what Friends was, it ended like it should have.

I DVR'd the show & watched it last night. F@c%ing NBC starts their programs 3 minutes early & this episode ended 4 minutes late.

I changed the setting to grab the early part but missed the last 2 minutes - they all put their keys on the table & then what happened?

I didn't get some action with the wife last night because I didn't get the final scene taped :bang:

I HATE NETWORK PROGRAMMERS :hammer:

Yeah, big surprise...and you may put a smiley there, but frankly, I'm getting tired of it.

I see a 3 page thread on Friends, and find out about only 1 page has to do with the topic at hand...

That's annoying.

Well said, Mike!

Friends isnt always happy-ending. Monica and Chandler weren't able to have a kid together, so they had to adopt. Granted they eventually got a kid in the end, but it wasn't their first choice. Such is life.

But anyhoo, I'm sad it's over. It's been a fun ride. Thursday nights hanging with the girls will never be the same. :(

Basically they camera just panned over the empty apartment, the keys, and finally the back of Monica's door. That was it.

I'm sad it's over too...the clipshow was pretty good, some great, hilarious moments.

And now Survivor is over on Sunday.

But no worries, the Amazing Race will be back on Thursday's soon :)

The ending of these long-running shows are usually too sappy for me to enjoy. I wish they would have ended with Ross not knowing if she got off the plane--it's still happy; you know they're going to get together, but it's not wrapped up in a mass-consumption package. I hate the way they wrap every storyline up like it's the end of the world. Yeah, they don't have that apartment--but they're all still friends, right?

That's why I liked the end of Sienfeld. They didn't have an episode where every storyline came together and ended. It just ended--rather abruptly, with questions lingering.
