As much as I will miss the show and the actors, I hope the characters of Josh and Reva are allowed to have their happiness and don't pop up on another show for more angst between them.

I would love to see Robert Newman and Kim Zimmer on tv again, just not as their GL characters.

All of it was too much, too rushed and too contrived.  I loved that Mallet & Dinah were together, but they didn't make it clear that they were 'back together.'  Marina and Shayne just seemed to have morphed in to a little family just because.  Rick & Mindy??  They had years to have together but never did.  Why didn't they get back together at the 25th reunion.  And throwing Frank & Blake together was just a total snore fest.  And I hated seeing Daisy, James and the other chick riding off in to the sunset.....where were they going??  Nice touch with Reva and Josh, although I couldn't help but notice how much older Reva looked than Josh.  She's put on so much weight in the last couple of years that it was really time for her to bow out of the romantic leading lady role.

  • Rick and Mindy together was a little too much. I always liked Mindy better as a platonic friend to Rick and Phillip. It's a shame there was never any real closure on her discord with Alexandra. I would have loved to see scenes of Alexandra finally forgiving Mindy for the affair with Roger. I don't remember any amends ever taking place between those two./KB

    I'm glad too but it felt awkward. It was obviously a last minute switch or they would have killed Jeffrey when the plane crashed. Guess they were afraid of offending the fan base. It was just strange to leave Jeffrey out there wandering around forever.

  • I think it would have made more sense if they fast forwarded a year and showed how they only lasted 6 months and reunited. It felt too rushed. I absolutely love Kim Zimmer, but that dress and hairdo???
  • Yes, I love KZ too, but she should have been dressed better these last couple of years to favor her age and fuller figure./KB
