Trivia:

In "Grumpy Young Men," Tommy Hickley (Casey Beauchamp) didn't know when exactly to come out in the last scene. You can see him poking his head out the door at one point.

Quotes:

Marty DePolo:[tries to hug Steve, but goes right through him] Not solid enough; I gotta eat more bananas.

This series should of at least lasted another season.

This series didn't deserve to get cancelled. I think a "Teen Angel" is a great idea for a movie or series. My guess for the cancellation is that a lot of teens and adults probably thought that the person who came up with the series didn't take death too seriously. If I were the last person on earth, I wouldn't have brought the ratings down.
