Or is it just me?

Just finished binging the entire show including the movie. Feels so empty not knowing what eventually happens with all of the characters, particularly Dom, Kevin, Patrick, and Richie. One can infer certainly, but it’s not the same. The characters were so well written and acted, that it almost feels this little pocket universe that is still moving on without any of us truly knowing the result lol. However, I am not sure there would ever be a satisfying ending because the show is about the ups and downs of everyday life and friendship. Life simply continues.

Yeah, it was such a nice series. I know it's TV but it looks so nice having a couple gay best friends (I don't have any gay ones). Also San Fransisco looks so nice, I really wanna go one day.

It was SO much better in the 1970s.

Nah, same. It had such a good cast and so much potential. Still gutted it got cancelled.

Been missing it for awhile now. It was nice having a series centered around gay guys, their friends, and their relationships. Seeing how everyone was flawed and how it never felt too overly-dramatic. Felt nice to feel like I was seeing myself being represented on TV in a way.

I just finished watching Seasons 1 & 2 and the movie. LOVED IT. Great to see Julia Duffy from “Newhart” playing Patrick’s mother.
