00:00Goodbye.
00:02Will?
00:04Bye-bye, G.
00:05Welcome to Ms. Mojo.
00:07And today, we're counting down our picks
00:09for those unforgettable television sign-offs
00:11that left us drowning in a puddle of our own bittersweet tears,
00:14balancing the crushing ache of saying goodbye
00:16to our favorite characters
00:17with watching them get the happy endings
00:19they so richly deserved.
00:20Of course, that does mean a spoiler warning is now in effect.
00:33Will and Grace's friendship gets pushed to the breaking point
00:37when Will and Grace, now pregnant with Leo's child,
00:40have a huge falling out.
00:41My best friend would have returned my calls
00:43when I left a hundred messages begging for forgiveness.
00:46My best friend would have put aside his anger
00:49and showed up for the birth of my daughter.
00:51That's what my best friend would have done.
00:53After everything they've survived together,
00:55watching them walk away from each other feels almost unbearable.
00:58Then, fate takes a nearly two-decade detour,
01:02bringing them back together
01:03when their children attend the same college.
01:05Do you have your hair?
01:10I do, thank God.
01:12Have you had anything lifted?
01:14I haven't.
01:16Why not?
01:16I knew you were gonna say that.
01:18Those old rhythms fall straight back into place,
01:20and the relief is enormous.
01:23Their lives have taken completely different directions,
01:25yet their friendship has not lost a single beat.
01:28Seeing them reunite as empty nesters
01:30feels like being wrapped in a warm blanket.
01:32I still can't believe our kids are getting married.
01:35I can.
01:36I'm paying for it.
01:39You know, for me,
01:40that's the most special part about this whole experience.
01:45The years disappeared,
01:46and our happy tears came right along with them.
01:49Number 29,
01:50An American Girl in Paris Part 2,
01:53Sex and the City.
01:54Carrie spent six seasons stumbling through New York romance,
01:57but the finale reminds us that this was always an ensemble story.
02:01Go get our girl.
02:02After plenty of heartbreak,
02:04all four women finally reach places that feel right for them.
02:07Miranda embraces family life,
02:09Charlotte gets the family she dreamed of,
02:12Samantha opens herself to real devotion,
02:14You flew back to tell me that.
02:16Can you think of a better reason?
02:22No, I can't.
02:25You have meant more to me than any man I've ever known.
02:29And Carrie remembers who she is and what's important to her.
02:32They gather for one last lunch in New York,
02:34and suddenly,
02:35all the previous anxiety gives way to relief.
02:38These women have laughed,
02:40fought,
02:40dated,
02:41and supported each other.
02:42So seeing them together one more time hits hard.
02:45The ending feels like raising a Cosmo to a friendship
02:48that's seen it all and made it through together.
02:50There are those that open you up to something new and exotic.
02:54Lord, I just don't care.
02:56But you've got the love I need to see me through.
03:03Those that are old and familiar.
03:05Number 28,
03:06The End,
03:07Lost,
03:07Six seasons of secrets,
03:09monsters,
03:10betrayals,
03:11and sacrifice
03:12left us wondering whether these castaways would ever find peace.
03:15By the finale,
03:16that question becomes personal.
03:17The most important part of your life
03:21was the time that you spent with these people.
03:25That's why all of you are here.
03:28Nobody does it alone, Jack.
03:30Jack, Kate, and the others gather inside that church,
03:33realizing they can finally go in.
03:35These people carried one another through grief,
03:37fear,
03:38fear,
03:38and impossible choices.
03:39As Christian opens the doors,
03:41the release is overwhelming.
04:00Jack has spent so long fighting to save everyone that seeing him finally understand he can stop feels cathartic.
04:06The island had become more than a mysterious puzzle.
04:09It was a place where these broken people healed.
04:12It was hard not to get emotional knowing they had finally found home.
04:23The Nine-Nine gave us one of the coziest, most earned goodbyes in comedy history.
04:29These last eight years have been some of the best of my life.
04:32I will always cherish our time together,
04:34but not as much as I will cherish drowning you all in your own blood.
04:38What?
04:39It's the final heist,
04:40and I will chop off your limbs and feed them to your young.
04:42Watching them pull off one final Halloween heist,
04:44watching them pull off one final Halloween heist,
04:47packed with wild double crosses and familiar faces,
04:49was pure joy.
04:50As always,
04:51the heist brought out the best and worst in each of them,
04:54but we loved every second.
04:56I remember everything.
04:57I remember the whole heist,
04:59going to find Charles,
05:00the magnet suits.
05:00Do you remember where you hit the tube?
05:02Yeah, inside the fake baby.
05:04Thanks, babe.
05:07But when they all sat down in the break room for one final hurrah
05:10before walking out of that elevator together,
05:12it was like someone turned on the waterworks.
05:14I think I just wanted a big dramatic moment so that I wouldn't feel sad,
05:18because goodbyes are inherently sad.
05:20They mean that something's ending,
05:21and this one is especially sad,
05:23because what we had was so great.
05:25It stung,
05:26yet our hearts swelled because every one of them
05:28had grown into the best version of themselves.
05:30This squad couldn't be kept apart for long,
05:33especially when there are heists to be won.
05:359-9 forever.
05:37What I say is...
05:399-9!
05:41Still wiping away those happy tears?
05:43We don't blame you,
05:44but the party doesn't have to end.
05:46Scan the QR code on screen to join Ms. Mojo's 24-7 live stream
05:49for a safe space to keep the feels and the pop culture fun going.
05:53It's not all sad.
05:55Right?
05:56We're moving on to things that we love.
05:57Number 26.
05:58Chosen.
05:59Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
06:01Buffy spent seven seasons carrying a war that never seemed to end.
06:04So watching the first evil fall feels like a backpack full of bricks
06:08has finally come off her shoulders.
06:10Go on then.
06:11No, you've done enough.
06:12You could still...
06:13No, you've beat them back.
06:15It's for me to do the cleanup.
06:16Sunnydale is gone, the Hellmouth is closed,
06:19and Buffy stands on the crater's edge with something she has rarely had.
06:22A future.
06:23The sudden quiet is startling after years of sorrows and dread.
06:27Buffy no longer has to brace herself for the next apocalypse.
06:30We changed the world.
06:33I can feel them, Buffy.
06:35All over.
06:37Slayers are awakening everywhere.
06:40She can imagine tomorrow.
06:41Her friends are alive,
06:43the rules have changed,
06:44and the burden is no longer hers alone.
06:47How are tears come from seeing the girl who saved everyone
06:49finally getting some freedom herself?
06:51Yeah, you're not the one and only chosen anymore.
06:54Just gotta live like a person.
06:56How's that feel?
06:58Yeah, Buffy.
06:59What are we gonna do now?
07:05Number 25.
07:06Mr. Monk and the End.
07:08Monk.
07:09Adrian Monk spent eight seasons
07:10trying to solve the murder of his wife Trudy,
07:12and the record-breaking finale
07:14finally gives him the truth he has been chasing.
07:16I know we said we'd never have any secrets,
07:18but...
07:20there's something I never told you.
07:24Something happened.
07:27Something terrible.
07:29The corrupt judge is exposed,
07:31and Trudy's videotaped message
07:32reveals he has a stepdaughter, Molly.
07:34Suddenly, his future is not defined by that case.
07:38You can't quit.
07:40Not for me.
07:41There are lots of other Trudys out there,
07:44and I think you're obligated to help them.
07:46You have a gift.
07:47He has Molly to love,
07:48alongside Natalie,
07:50and a reason to step beyond the controlled world
07:52he built around his grief.
07:53Watching this brilliant, wounded man
07:56discover that life can still surprise him
07:58is devastatingly sweet.
07:59The relief is enormous
08:01because Trudy's story has an answer,
08:03while Monk's get something better,
08:05a reason to keep going.
08:06Wait.
08:07What are you doing?
08:09Checking this door.
08:10Make sure it's off.
08:11It's a good idea.
08:12You don't want to get all the way downtown
08:13and not be sure.
08:15That actually happened to me once.
08:16Yeah.
08:18Number 24.
08:19Us.
08:20This is Us.
08:21After six seasons of pulling our emotions
08:23in every possible direction,
08:25the finale chooses something beautifully small,
08:27an afternoon at the Pearson family cabin.
08:29I got some good news.
08:32I got some very good news
08:34on a very sad day.
08:37Memories of Jack, Rebecca,
08:39and the kids drift through the episode
08:41as the big three remember a lifetime of parental love,
08:44yet nothing feels rushed.
08:45Instead, the family keeps living,
08:48laughing, and carrying one another forward.
08:50We're gonna do what she wanted us to do.
08:53We're gonna live fearlessly.
08:54Watching the big three step into their futures
08:56while holding on to what their parents gave them
08:58creates a bittersweetness
09:00where sadness and comfort meet.
09:02The passing of time may hurt,
09:03but the episode leaves us with something warmer.
09:06Love survives in ordinary moments,
09:09passed down even when goodbye is inevitable.
09:11And then came.
09:12Me.
09:13And mom said.
09:14Me.
09:15And then came.
09:17Me.
09:19And they said.
09:22That's three.
09:24Big three.
09:27Big three.
09:28Number 23.
09:29The Last Show.
09:30The Mary Tyler Moore Show.
09:32The WJM newsroom getting gutted by an executive
09:35felt like an attack on our TV family.
09:36And we sat there dreading the sign-off.
09:39It's not exactly a science,
09:40but I have to go with my instincts.
09:43Ted, you're staying.
09:46And the rest of you guys,
09:48I'm gonna have to let go.
09:49Then, Mary Richards rounded up her weeping coworkers
09:52for a messy group hug,
09:53shuffling across the office floor together.
09:56The tension of sudden unemployment
09:58dissolved into affection.
09:59I think we all need some Kleenex.
10:02There's some on Mary's desk.
10:10Your throat tightens because you never want them
10:12to leave the screen.
10:13But you grin through the blur
10:14because careers fade while true friends stay put.
10:17Seeing them walk away together
10:19makes the goodbye hurt a little less.
10:21It still stings to say goodbye to the place
10:23that change television.
10:24But watching Mary face an uncertain tomorrow
10:26with her spunk inspired generations.
10:28It's a long way to Tipperary
10:32It's a long way to go
10:37It's a long way to Tipperary
10:41To the sweetest girl I know
10:45Number 22
10:46May God bless and keep you always
10:49Parenthood
10:49The Bravermen spend the final season
10:51worrying about Zeke's failing heart.
10:53So the finale carries the fear
10:55that their goodbye is coming.
10:56Zeke?
11:09Zeke?
11:10It does but not before the family
11:11gets to celebrate life together.
11:13Zeke's ashes are scattered
11:15at the baseball diamond
11:16where the next generation runs the bases
11:18while Drew marries Amy
11:19and Crosby and Jasmine begin anew.
11:21May you stay
11:29Forever young
11:32Flash forwards show babies,
11:34weddings,
11:35and new beginnings
11:36stretching their story
11:37beyond the people we've known.
11:38That shift from dread to possibility
11:40breaks us.
11:42Zeke is gone
11:42but his family keeps moving,
11:44loving,
11:45and showing up for one another.
11:46We cry because the goodbye hurts
11:48while everything after proves his love.
11:50May you stay
11:58Forever young
12:04Number 21
12:06Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen
12:08MASH
12:09This remains the most watched finale
12:12in television history
12:13for a very good reason.
12:14The tents of the 4077
12:16will be coming down
12:18for good.
12:22For an awful long time
12:23we've been living together,
12:27eating together,
12:28sleeping together.
12:30After 11 agonizing seasons
12:33trapped in the Korean conflict,
12:34the 4077th finally packed up their tents
12:37as the guns fell silent.
12:38Hawkeye peeling back into that helicopter,
12:41looking down to see BJ
12:42had spelled out a final message
12:43in the rocks
12:44is pure emotional overload.
12:46Look, I know how tough it is
12:47for you to say goodbye,
12:48so I'll say it.
12:51Maybe you're right,
12:52maybe we will see each other again,
12:53but just in case we don't,
12:57I want you to know
12:58how much you've meant to me.
12:59It felt intended for the audience
13:01just as much as Hawkeye.
13:02The war had ended
13:04and our exhausted doctors
13:05could finally lay down
13:06their scalpels and head home.
13:07We sobbed openly
13:09because they were finally
13:10going back to their lives
13:11and our tear ducts were spent
13:13in the happiest way possible.
13:23Number 20.
13:25Happy Ending.
13:26Schitt's Creek.
13:27After six seasons
13:28of character growth,
13:29watching the once
13:30snobby Rose family
13:31evolve into big-hearted humans
13:33delivers the payoff.
13:34Bye, son.
13:35Bye, son.
13:35See you soon.
13:36I'm so proud of you.
13:37I'm so proud.
13:38David and Patrick's wedding
13:39overcomes every hitch
13:41to become a queer joy celebration,
13:43complete with the Jazza gals
13:44soaring on Simply the Best.
13:46After Simply the Best.
13:51Better than all the rest.
13:56It's absolutely beautiful
13:57watching the community
13:58rally together
13:59to give David
14:00the wedding he deserves.
14:01Out of love
14:02and because the roses
14:03have truly become one of them.
14:05Watching a once-broken family
14:06find independence,
14:08belonging,
14:08and love
14:09feels like a victory
14:10you earned
14:10right alongside them.
14:12Watching David get married
14:13and Alexis and his parents
14:15going off to new chapters
14:16validates that it is
14:17never too late
14:18to start over.
14:19What is it?
14:22Just wanted one last look.
14:28Driver, we're ready.
14:30Number 19.
14:31One Flew Out of the Cuckoo's Nest.
14:33The Golden Girls.
14:34I mean, what can you say
14:35about seven years
14:36of fights
14:37and laughter
14:38and secrets?
14:41Cheesecake?
14:42This show gave us
14:42endless laughs
14:43and heartwarming scenes
14:44through its seven-season run.
14:46So when the finale came around,
14:48we were prepared
14:48for a healthy dose
14:49of funny and touching
14:50final moments
14:51between the girls.
14:52The series ends
14:53with Dorothy getting married
14:54and moving out.
14:55After a few tries
14:56to make her exit,
14:57the tears wouldn't stop
14:58flowing for them
14:59or for us.
15:00This wasn't really
15:01the end for Rose,
15:02Blanche, and Sophia
15:03as they would go on
15:04to star in a one-season
15:05spinoff called
15:06The Golden Palace.
15:07In any case,
15:08the Golden Girls finale
15:09was a turning point
15:10in the ladies' lives
15:11and left us both hopeful
15:12for their futures
15:13and sad over their separation.
15:14Your friendship
15:17was something
15:18I never expected
15:19at this point
15:20in my life
15:21and I could never
15:23have asked
15:24for a better surprise.
15:26Number 18.
15:27The Breakup.
15:28Psych.
15:29I'm an adventurer now
15:30with a friendship
15:31for the ages
15:32and if I had to live
15:33in another city
15:33to make that happen,
15:34then so be it.
15:36That's the way
15:36it's gotta be.
15:37Some of the best finales
15:38are the ones
15:38that are left open-ended,
15:40insinuating that
15:41the characters' stories
15:42will continue off-screen.
15:43This was the case
15:44for the final episode
15:45of Psych,
15:46which showed Gus and Sean
15:47moving the psych office
15:48to San Francisco,
15:49as well as Juliet
15:51and Sean getting engaged.
15:52Will you marry us?
15:54Me.
15:54Mostly me.
15:55Even though Gus
15:56is always gonna be
15:57part of the deal.
15:57With touching moment
15:58after touching moment
15:59to wrap up
16:00this beloved series,
16:01the final shot we see
16:02is the trio
16:03heading out
16:03on another case together
16:05and just like that,
16:06we know their shenanigans
16:07will not be stopping
16:08anytime soon.
16:09While this wasn't
16:10really the end
16:11with spinoffs
16:12and the like,
16:12this series finale
16:13is one that was
16:14certainly bittersweet.
16:16Number 17.
16:17Forever Charmed.
16:18Charmed.
16:19This is the way
16:20the battle was supposed
16:21to end all along.
16:22And it's over.
16:24Congratulations.
16:26This supernatural TV show
16:27told the story
16:28of the good witches
16:29Prue,
16:29Phoebe,
16:30Piper,
16:30and Paige,
16:31and the finale
16:32wrapped up their stories
16:33perfectly.
16:34With Piper being
16:34the last remaining
16:35witch of the bunch,
16:36she works her magic
16:37to bring back
16:38Paige and Phoebe,
16:39and they all decide
16:40to document their stories
16:41for future generations
16:42to learn from.

16:45reveals the fates
16:46of the witches
16:47as they get married,
16:48have children,
16:49and pass on their knowledge.
16:50I was suddenly
16:51so blessed
16:52to have a new family
16:53of my own
16:54and old friends
16:55to share it with.
16:56While the penultimate episode
16:57left us sobbing in sorrow,
16:59we were thrilled
17:00that the finale
17:01left us with tears
17:02of joy instead.
17:03Number 16.
17:04Goodnight, Seattle.
17:06Frasier.
17:06The ending
17:07to this iconic sitcom
17:09saw every character
17:10finding happiness
17:11in their own way.
17:12Niles and Daphne

17:15frantically plans
17:16a wedding
17:16for Martin and Ronnie,
17:17and with all of these
17:18big changes on the horizon,
17:20Frasier ponders
17:21his next move.
17:22The only reason
17:22I'm leaving
17:23is because I want
17:24what all of you have now.
17:26A new chapter.
17:28It appears as though
17:29he decides to go
17:29to San Francisco
17:30to take a new job,
17:31but surprises everyone
17:32by going to Chicago
17:34to be with his girlfriend
17:35instead.
17:35All of these happy moments
17:37had us reaching
17:37for the tissues,
17:38but Frasier's poignant
17:39and thought-provoking
17:40farewell speech
17:41on his radio show
17:42really got us
17:43in the feels
17:43as it perfectly summed up
17:45the essence of the show.
17:46Goodnight, Seattle.
17:47Number 15.
17:48That 70s finale.
17:50That 70s show.
17:51While the eighth season
17:53of the show
17:53was underwhelming
17:54to say the least,
17:55the finale delivered
17:56in all of the best ways.
17:58Red and Kitty
17:59decide to stay
17:59in point place,
18:00Kelso returns
18:01to ring in the new year
18:02with his buddies,
18:03and Eric comes home
18:04from Africa.
18:04I don't care
18:05where I live,
18:07as long as I'm with you.
18:10Really?
18:12Of course.
18:12During the montage
18:13of Eric and Donna's relationship,
18:15our eyes welled up
18:16until we finally got
18:17to see them reunite
18:18for good,
18:19which is when
18:19the tears spilled over.
18:21The episode ends
18:22at the strike of midnight
18:23as the gang welcomes
18:24the new decade,
18:25and we couldn't be happier
18:26to see the group of six
18:27back together
18:28in one final circle
18:29to close out the 70s.
18:31I knew you'd burn out
18:32to be down here.
18:33You guys,
18:33it's almost midnight.
18:34Mrs. Foreman
18:34is pouring the champagne.
18:35Number 14.
18:36Dreams Come True
18:37Glee
18:39There was hardly a moment
18:40throughout the finale
18:41of Glee
18:41in which our noses
18:42were not touching
18:43our screens.
18:44The new Directions
18:45win Nationals again,
18:46McKinley High
18:47becomes a school
18:47for the arts,
18:48and Sam becomes
18:49the leader
18:49of the Glee Club.
18:50Wait, hold on.
18:52No, you're taking
18:53you over the Glee Club?
18:54You jealous?
18:55Yeah.
18:55I could not be more proud
18:57to pass the baton
18:58In a five-year flash forward,
19:00Rachel wins a Tony Award
19:02where she acknowledges
19:03the Glee Club
19:03and Mr. Shoe
19:04for creating something special.
19:06Back in Lima,
19:07there was certainly
19:07not a dry eye
19:08in the house
19:09when the McKinley High
19:10Auditorium
19:10was renamed
19:11in honor of Finn.
19:12I am honored
19:13to be here
19:13to rededicate this theater
19:15to Finn Hudson Auditorium.
19:21In the final scene,
19:22we get to see
19:23one last
19:23New Directions performance
19:24on the stage
19:25that hosted
19:26countless amazing shows
19:27throughout Glee's six seasons,
19:28and we can't imagine
19:30a more perfect ending.
19:31Number 13.
19:33White Orchids,
19:34The Mentalist.
19:35Throughout its seven-year run,
19:36there were many episodes
19:37that had viewers
19:38feeling devastated,
19:39so it was refreshing
19:40to see a happy ending
19:41when The Mentalist
19:42wrapped up.
19:43The episode kicks off
19:44with Jane proposing
19:45to Lisbon,
19:45and we see them prepare
19:46for their wedding day
19:47while still doing
19:48their jobs flawlessly.
19:50We go to a restaurant.
19:51No big deal.
19:51It's not like we're hiring
19:52a caterer.
19:53We don't have a gift registry
19:54or anything.
19:54Sure.
19:55We also see the return
19:56of some characters
19:57from the show
19:58as they attend
19:58the wedding festivities,
19:59and it all closes out
20:01with the reveal
20:01of Lisbon's pregnancy.
20:03Even Jane himself
20:04couldn't have predicted
20:05how poignant
20:05the finale would be,
20:06as it left us all
20:07feeling delighted
20:08for the newlyweds
20:09and soon-to-be parents'
20:10new chapter.
20:13Ladies and gentlemen,
20:16Patrick and Teresa.
20:19Number 12.
20:20Finale,
20:20Modern Family.
20:22After 11 seasons
20:23on the air,
20:24viewers couldn't wait
20:25to see how the Dunphy
20:26Pritchett crew
20:26would say goodbye.
20:28I said I wasn't
20:28gonna cry.
20:29And you're not?
20:30Yeah, it's called strength.
20:32Manny is going globetrotting,
20:34Mitch and Cam
20:34have a new baby,
20:35Alex is moving
20:36to Switzerland,
20:37Luke is going
20:37to the University of Oregon,
20:39and Hayley and Dylan
20:40are set to move
20:40into Cam and Mitch's
20:41old place.
20:42All of the goodbyes
20:43are emotional,
20:44but the moment
20:44that had us choked up
20:45the most was
20:46the final group hug.
20:47No one wanted
20:48to let go,
20:49and neither did we.
20:50Why is this so hard?
20:51We've done this
20:52like seven times
20:53already today.
20:54It's hard because
20:55not everybody gets
20:56to have what we had.
20:58After over a decade
20:59of this family
20:59making us laugh,
21:00cry,
21:01and cringe,
21:02Jay's speech
21:03hits right in the feels.
21:04In the end,
21:05the light stays on
21:06at the Dunphy's,
21:07a reminder that
21:08you can always return home
21:09no matter how far you go.
21:12Number 11.
21:13Everyone's Waiting,
21:14Six Feet Under.
21:15Tonight.
21:18Tonight.
21:21To my firstborn.
21:23With a show
21:24that is insightful
21:25and bold
21:26as it's centered
21:26around death,
21:27we were not anticipating
21:28an enlightening
21:29and joyful series finale.
21:31While every episode
21:32starts with a death
21:33and tells the subsequent
21:34story that follows
21:35through the eyes
21:35of the funeral directors,
21:37the finale takes
21:38a different turn.
21:39Go.
21:40Live.
21:41I'll unfreeze
21:42your trust fund.
21:43Take it and find
21:44whatever life has
21:44in store for you.
21:45It shows us a montage
21:46of where every beloved
21:47character's lives will go
21:49after the end of the series,
21:50chronicling their lives
21:51right up until
21:52their final moments.
21:53This was a fitting
21:54ending for the show
21:55and gave more closure
21:57than most other
21:57series finales,
21:58leaving no unanswered
22:00questions and a whole
22:01lot of emotion
22:02in its wake.
22:03Number 10.
22:04Whenever You're Ready,
22:05The Good Place.
22:06This fantasy comedy series
22:08was an emotional
22:08rollercoaster
22:09from beginning to end
22:10as it showed its viewers
22:12a different perspective
22:13of the concept
22:13of the afterlife.
22:14You can sit on that bench
22:15as long as you want.
22:17Whenever you're ready,
22:18you just walk through.
22:20The finale illustrated
22:22that mortality
22:22is something to embrace
22:23and can be a peaceful
22:25and beautiful thing.
22:26One by one,
22:27the main characters
22:28come to reach satisfaction
22:29with their time
22:30in The Good Place
22:31and all of their exits
22:32are incredibly moving.
22:34Chidi's description
22:35of death as a wave
22:36returning to the ocean
22:37is enough to choke
22:38anyone up.
22:38Then it crashes
22:39on the shore
22:41and it's gone.
22:45But the water
22:47is still there.
22:49We also get to see
22:50Michael live a life
22:51on Earth,
22:51which is particularly
22:52endearing.
22:53The show takes
22:54a fresh approach
22:55to the saying
22:55all good things
22:56must come to an end
22:57and we feel okay
22:58with it by the time
22:59they do.
23:00Number 9.
23:01Brave New World.
23:02Boy Meets World.
23:04You're probably not
23:04going to miss me
23:05at all, are you?
23:06Not one bit.
23:08When we first met
23:09Corey, Sean, Topanga
23:10and the rest of the gang,
23:11they were a group
23:12of awkward middle schoolers
23:13getting into scrapes
23:14and having fun.
23:15But Boy Meets World
23:16followed them
23:16into adulthood,
23:17running for seven seasons
23:19and letting us grow up
23:20with them along the way.
23:21By the end of the series,
23:23our main characters
23:23are ready to move on
23:25from their lives
23:25in Philadelphia
23:26and make a big move
23:27to New York.
23:28If there's one thing
23:29I've taught you
23:30is that there is a line
23:31between teacher
23:32and student
23:34that must never be crossed.
23:37Tell us you love us.
23:38The most important
23:40of their goodbyes
23:40comes when they bid
23:41farewell to Mr. Feeney,
23:42whom they ask
23:43for one last piece
23:44of advice before they go.
23:46When he tells them
23:47he loves them
23:47after they leave
23:48the classroom,
23:49get ready for the waterworks.
23:50I love you all.
23:58Class dismissed.
24:00Number 8.
24:01The Stockholm Syndrome.
24:02The Big Bang Theory.
24:04Ready?
24:05Hang on.
24:09Go.
24:10It takes something special
24:11for a sitcom
24:12to run for 12 seasons
24:13and while it may have
24:14been divisive,
24:15you can't argue the fact
24:16that The Big Bang Theory
24:18certainly had a serious fan base.
24:19And there is a lot going on
24:21in the series finale
24:22with Howard and Bernadette
24:23leaving their kids
24:23for the first time
24:24in order to travel to Sweden
24:25for the Nobel Prize ceremony.
24:27Penny has found out
24:28she's pregnant
24:29and wants to keep it a secret
24:30from the rest of the gang
24:30but obviously fails.
24:33I'm pregnant, Sheldon.
24:36You're right.
24:36I can't catch that.
24:37There are as many mishaps
24:38as always
24:39but the touching moment
24:40comes when Sheldon
24:41gets up to thank his friends
24:42for all the support
24:43they've given him
24:44over the years
24:44showing a side of him
24:46we've rarely seen before.
24:47I'd like to ask them
24:48to stand.
24:50Number 7.
24:51My Finale.
24:52Scrubs.
24:53And even though
24:54it felt warm
24:55and safe
24:57I knew it had to end.
24:58There aren't too many
24:59great medical comedies
25:00out there
25:01but Scrubs paved the way
25:02starting in the early aughts
25:04for a hospital show
25:05that didn't have to
25:05take itself too seriously.
25:07Let's face it
25:07we said goodbye too early
25:09I don't think I've got
25:09another hug in me.
25:10Honest to God
25:11I never thought
25:11I'd hear you say that.
25:13How could I ever
25:13not want to hug you?
25:14Has the world gone mad?
25:16Despite being lighthearted
25:17there were still plenty
25:18of emotional moments
25:19with the series finale
25:20giving us plenty
25:21to happy cry about.
25:23JD envisions his future
25:24and we get to see
25:25what he sees.
25:26The flash forwards
25:27include marrying Elliot
25:28and her becoming pregnant
25:30as well as a Christmas scene
25:31where we see
25:32many of our favorite
25:33characters reunite.
25:34Not only that
25:35he also sees
25:36Sammy and Izzy
25:37getting engaged
25:37and to make sure
25:39things don't get too serious
25:40he falls over
25:41from the shock.
25:42It's never good
25:43to live in the past
25:43too long.
25:45As for the future
25:46thanks to Dan
25:48it didn't seem
25:48so scary anymore.
25:51Number 6
25:51Chapter 100
25:53Jane the Virgin
25:54When Jane
25:55Gloriana Villanueva
25:56was a much younger girl
25:58she had to face
25:59the unthinkable.
26:00What do you mean
26:01the telenovela
26:01is going to end?
26:03Well they just revealed
26:04the last big secret.
26:05The finale of
26:06Jane the Virgin
26:06features our romantic leads
26:08finally making things official.
26:10At Jane and Raphael's wedding
26:11both are crying too much
26:13to get through their vows
26:14so they simply swap papers
26:15and read them quietly
26:16to themselves
26:17and kiss before
26:18they were supposed to.
26:19The first time we met
26:20you told me to be brave.
26:22We find out that
26:23Jane's son Mateo
26:24has been the narrator
26:25all along.
26:32And at the very end
26:34Raphael asks Jane
26:35what happens
26:35at the end of her book
26:36and she reveals
26:37that it's turned
26:38into a telenovela
26:39giving a knowing wink
26:40to the audience.
26:41So I never asked you
26:45what happens
26:46at the end of your book?
26:48They make it
26:49into a telenovela.
26:51Well who'd want
26:52to watch that?
26:57Number 5
26:58Always
26:59Friday Night Lights
27:11Many have said
27:12that Coach Taylor
27:13and Tammy
27:13are one of the best
27:14and most realistic
27:15portrayals of a married
27:16couple on TV
27:17and we get to tearfully
27:19marvel at them
27:19one last time
27:20in the series finale
27:21of Friday Night Lights.
27:22Coach is wrestling
27:23with a decision
27:24whether he'll continue
27:25his position on the team
27:26or follow Tammy
27:27to her new job
27:28in Philadelphia.
27:29I turned the contract down.
27:31It's your turn.
27:32I want to go to Philadelphia.
27:36Really babe?
27:37We get to see a montage
27:38of what happens
27:38eight months afterwards
27:39which includes
27:40a clear eyes,
27:41full hearts,
27:42can't lose sign
27:43being put up
27:43and Eric trying
27:44to use the new phrase
27:45with his new team.
27:47Clear eyes,
27:48full hearts.
27:53Yeah we'll deal
27:53with that later.
27:58Well don't hide
27:59your emotions.
28:01Look Carlton
28:01I don't have
28:02no separation anxiety.
28:03You might remember
28:04The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
28:05for its oh so memorable
28:06theme song
28:07or for Will Smith's
28:08fly fashion sense
28:09but it's easy to forget
28:10how deeply this show
28:12struck an emotional chord
28:13at various points
28:13throughout the series.
28:14In the final episode
28:15the Banks family
28:16who took Will in
28:17at the very beginning
28:18decide to leave
28:19Los Angeles for good
28:20and put their house
28:21on the market.
28:22While Will is unsure
28:23if he's actually made
28:24any progress
28:25since moving to California
28:26the audience
28:27can clearly see
28:28that he has.
28:28I love you
28:29Uncle Phil
28:30and I just don't
28:31want to lose you
28:31any of you.
28:34You're not going
28:35to lose us.
28:37You are my son
28:38Will.
28:40End of story.
28:42You just better be sure
28:43that your butt
28:43is by a phone
28:44on Sunday.
28:45He opts to stay
28:45and finish his degree
28:46so he has to say
28:48goodbye to his
28:48adoptive family
28:49and the moment
28:50he has with Uncle Phil
28:51has us grabbing
28:52for the tissues.
28:53Sunday.
28:56Sunday.
28:57Number 3.
28:57Engram Pacherski
28:59New Girl.
29:00Nick and I
29:00are
29:03moving out
29:03of the loft.
29:04At first
29:05fans are led
29:06to believe
29:06that the New Girl
29:07finale is about
29:07one thing
29:08but with a clever twist
29:09it becomes about
29:10something else entirely.
29:12We got an eviction notice.
29:13They're kicking us out
29:14in 24 hours.
29:15It seems as though
29:16the gang is being
29:16evicted from the loft
29:17where so many of the
29:18events of the show
29:19took place
29:20but it's eventually
29:21revealed that the
29:21eviction is just
29:22a prank from Winston.
29:23Ingram Pacherski.
29:25If you rearrange
29:26those letters
29:27what does it spell?
29:29My greatest prank.
29:31My greatest prank!
29:32But they decide
29:33to leave anyway
29:34even though
29:34they aren't being
29:35forced to.
29:36We see them play
29:37one last game
29:37of True American
29:38Packing Edition
29:39which morphs
29:40into a vision
29:41of the future
29:41when they're all
29:42playing with their
29:43children.
29:43The ending
29:44is just so touching
29:45when they leave
29:46the loft
29:46for one last time.
29:48You ready?
29:49Yeah.
29:50Let's go.

30:02The 7th and final season
30:04of Parks and Rec
30:05does a time jump
30:06to the year 2017
30:07which was actually
30:08the future
30:08back when the episode
30:09aired in 2015.
30:10In the final episode
30:11however
30:12we jump forward
30:13even further
30:14showing how
30:14all of the characters
30:15lives evolve
30:16all the way up
30:16to the year 2048.
30:18In the furthest
30:19flash forward
30:20we see Jerry
