season/series finale ends with cliffhanger! Geez

I'll admit that the first few episodes of this series were pretty bad, but the show honestly has gotten better and the characters all improved and became likable and more importantly it got funnier as well. If tonight's last episode was truly the finale (there is a missing 13th episode floating around somewhere that NBC hasn't scheduled a broadcast date) it ends with a cliffhanger and with 3 major characters in life conflicts.
I would have liked a little resolution but obviously the producers/creators never intended for the show to be scheduled a year later in the summer with the episodes burned off by NBC and never given a chance.

I agree that it has gotten so much better. I've grown to love the show after the last 4 episodes. I didn't mind the cliffhanger but what I'm afraid of is if the show gets cancelled and we will have no resolution.

I hope the network give the show a chance.

By the way, I wonder if it was an innocent coincidence that Ben got a food-truck just like how Dave did on Happy Endings....hmmm.

so it's not officially cancelled?

cause i heard rumours...

i hope it continues, it's a cute show!

The show was canceled before it aired. The options for all actors expired in May. There is zero chance this is coming back.

That sucks. I was really starting to like it. And now a cliffhanger.

I didn't even know it was airing until recently but I LOVED every episode. It's a shame it didnt air during the season and didnt get too good of ratings over the summer.
Glad it did get the chance to air though cause it made me laugh lots. :)

Let's see. Riley and Ben hook up for a while until they both find someone hotter to be with...

Fitz settles down with a nice black girl whose friends are in stable relationships.

Sara meets an Male nurse at the hospital and lives happily ever after.

Zach marries a girl he met playing WoW.

There...series finale!!!!!!

There ya go. You did it!

Although I would rather have Sara and Ben be together in the end.

That is a little odd. I didn't even realize they did that on both shows until you mentioned it. Weird.

Having just watched the series on Netflix (including Episode 13), I'm wondering - if 12 was the cliffhanger, when was 13 supposed to air?

[–] hpavillion1 10 years ago

yeah the way episode 13 started DID NOT at all follow from where 12 left off.

I just watched episode 13 and it was not a continuation of episode 12 so I am wondering the same thing - I was confused.
