    They should have shot the kids (as they are today) on the couch (fixed) once the story was over (preferably with a better ending) with the line "That's It!?"

    There wasn't any room on the couch for the coach.
     
  3. Oh so now we want to kill off the kids too?!?!

    In their defense, it would have been hard to get the scenes with the kids right back in 2005 when they didn't know that HBO would legitimize incest on television.

    Well, maybe everyone will like this ending better ...

    Lol, no kidding. Who knew SJ had so many budding David Simons? See you all at the Emmy Awards!

    Yep, exactly what it seems most people out there would've preferred. The mother dying is fine, that was obvious for a long time. But don't thrust Robin back into the picture just for the hell of it. That ending would've had a much bigger impact on everyone, despite the episode mostly blowing chunks.

    You better go lecture everyone on the pro sports threads too, if no one is allowed to be critical of anything they haven't done themselves. Actually, might as well shut down 95 percent of this board.

    And, yes, some people here have come up with better endings. It's not like it was hard to do.

    Oh, and by the way, if 95 percent of the people who read a story I wrote all said it sucked and came up with ways it could have been better, perhaps I would have to rethink if I screwed it up.

    95 per cent may not necessarily have liked the ending, but most of us got the fuck over it the same night.

    You wanna still be upset about something, be pissed off on my behalf that Cobie Smulders is married to somebody else and not planning to come back to Canada to settle down with my supple ass.

    You could do way better than Cobie Smulders.

    How distraught do you think we are? We're just venting on a message board. I swear I haven't written any tersely worded lettesr to CBS or organized any boycotts. The show sucked and I was pissed and wanted to blow off steam. Now I just want to mock how bad it was.
