After watching and re watching eleven years of one of the greatest television shows ever, I must confess I felt a little disappointment in the finale. My reason for this is quite simple. The first word in the genre of this series is "Comedy," and there was very little comedy in this three-hour final episode. Was it well written? Certainly! Was the acting what I had come to expect from this series? Absolutely! After all, it had the same core cast that we had all enjoyed for years. What it didn't have was the biting satirical humor that I enjoyed for so many years. Instead we were treated to many poignant moments and stark drama. There is certainly nothing wrong with that, but it's not what I expected from a show that was listed and played for so many years as a comedy. Having said all that, this is still a very entertaining show, and well worth watching.
