Hold me.
My favourite TV show just finished (possibly for good) and there’s now an Offspring-shaped hole in my Wednesday nights.
I know this feeling too well. It’s the same one I felt when Friends finished, when Will and Grace took their kids to college, when Pacey married Joey, and when Carrie chose Big for the last time.
Just as an FYI, you should know that this post is sponsored by Madman Entertainment. But all opinions expressed by the author are 100 per cent authentic and written in their own words.
It goes a little something like this:
1. On the day of the last episode, you’re excited. There’s still a whole one-hour episode to look forward to. There’s no thought of the future.

2. Three minutes before the end of the episode, it dawns on you. The end is near.
3. When the final credits roll, it becomes real. You can’t quite believe it.
4. For the next three days, you’re in a daze. There’s just an emptiness inside you. Things that used to be funny just aren’t anymore. The things that made you happy… suddenly don’t.
5. You try to recreate the magic by trying new TV shows. But nothing is as good. Nothing compares. Nothing can replace what you had.

My best friends and I bawled our eyes out when the finale episode of sex and the city was aired, I think I was about 19? Haha now I have the boxed set of all the seasons so I can watch Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte anytime I want :)
Couldn't agree more! I remember being about 6 and crying when Family Ties ended! Packed to the Rafters last year tore me up, especially because they only gave us a week's notice. Sex and the City, Friends, HIMYM and so many others.
