I cannot watch the last episode of Blackadder Goes Forth, Midsomer Murders (Tom Barnaby), Allo Allo, Or the Good Life because of this.
I have seen the end episodes, but somehow the bittersweet, definite ending overshadows the rest, and I cannot bring myself to watch these episodes, because ultimately they ruin what happened before in my mind.
I am emotionally invested, when I know how these people lives end, or that they never see each other again etc, they die in a greater extent in my head.
The best endings are Black Books, Father Ted, Fawlty Towers, Phoenix Nights, Open All Hours.... The story arcs finish, the lose ends are tied up, but out there in the world (well the world of my imagination), Black Books still stumbles on with Manny and Bernard and Fran net door, Fawlty Towers is still open (an has the same guests), Phoenix Nights has probably burnt down again about 5 times, but is ultimately still open with Brian in control, as is Arkwright's shop, but now open all day on Sunday's as well.
I would like JF to finish the story arcs, yes, but for the last episode, for the end, I want MJN to fly off into the sunset the four members of the family safe together in the great sky of my subconscious and if they don't, like my first list I will have to ensure I only listen to "Zurich" once, and then burn it off the end of the CD.
