Its supposed to be a comedy dammit!

Okay I have not been super faithful to Young Sheldon but I have enjoyed like 85% of the series.  I watched last weeks episode live....

I KNEW George died at some point because in Big Bang Theory he is already dead.  And I knew it had to be coming soon because, well its ending THIS WEEK. 

I just didn't think it would f**k me up so bad when it happened.  

I mean Jesus!  They are getting ready to go take a family photo before Sheldon leaves for Cali.  They are cutting up and being the goof @$$ family that they are when there is a knock at the door.  

George had a massive heart attack, he's gone.  That's it.  He went to work and he's gone.  No drawn out goodbye, just no longer here. 

I think it hit me so hard because THAT is real.  Life is like that.  It's not a sitcom. It's not like a TV show.  You leave for work one day and just don't come home.  The only thing "sitcomy" was they happen to be all together going take a family photo but that could be real too.  

Everyone's faces and sobs.  Sheldon in shock in the corner.  I legit went from cracking up to silently crying into my wine.  

Now I'm kinda dreading the f**king finale.  I don't want to cry!!!! I see elder Sheldon is making an appearance.  I feel like he's going to close it out which is fitting.  I mean he created this.  He made the anomaly that is Sheldon Cooper and opened the door for this spin off and the one about Georgie and his family. I just don't want to be sad at the end of a finale for a comedy but I will be sad its ending.  It's a funny show!

I think I was murdered by a show

I watched the final episode of SPN after my last post.  It's not that I didn't have anything to say.  I just couldn't form complete sentences.

I SOBBED!

I think I literally cried for an hour.  


SPOILERS FOR THE SERIES FINALE


THEY KILLED DEAN

DEAN F**KING DIED

In like the 1st 5 min. He is hanging on that freaking nail thing crying and Sam is crying and I am crying.  And he asked for permission to go.  He asked Sam to tell him it was okay to die and I legit just sobbed.  

Sammy held him as he died and I just can't y'all.  I can't.  I am crying again and it's been f**king two weeks!

Sam lived his life.  HIS NORMAL LIFE that was taken from him in Episode 1.  

He has a Kid named DEAN!

Dean is in Heaven...well new heaven now that Jack and CASTIEL (yay!!!) revamp it. 

Dean has baby with him in heaven and goes for a drive.  A drive that lasts the REST OF SAM'S LIFE!

Sam has a family...he grows old.  He's still wearing Dean's watch.  His son is with him on his deathbed AND TELLS HIM ITS OKAY TO GO and now I am sobbing again.  Just f**king kill me man.

So Sammy goes to heaven and Dean is chilling on a bridge and doesn't even turn around...he just says "Hey Sammy" and I am AGAIN just bawling! 

And just like that 15 seasons are over.  15 years of a show I have loved for ALL 15 years is done.  Through the cheesy, sad, silly, serious...through it all, I have stuck by it and now it is done. 

Honestly, I don't think they could have ended it any other way.  It's a PERFECT ending for the Winchesters.  Dean was always going to die a meaningless death, in a meaningless place, with a meaningless baddie.  But this time he is with Sam and he is ready.  He is ready to be done with this crazy family business.  He is ready for peace. Sam gets his happily ever after.  Granted almost everyone he has ever cared about is dead.  But he manages to live the happy life.  Live the life he was meant to have.  Live the life Dean wanted him to have.  

And in the end the boys are back together in eternity with Baby.  As it should be.  

Then Jensen and Jared are on the bridge, no longer in character.  And they and the WHOLE cast thank the fans.  Because without the fans this crazy show wouldn't have been what it was and there I am just crying because even though I knew this because I follow them on social media, I really really knew they loved the show and the fandom just as much as we did.  

I have loved many a shows and I still love many a shows but something about this one really gets me.  I just have this weird connection to it.  Possibly because it was silly and serious.  But it never took itself too seriously.  It made fun of itself but it was always always about family! Not necessarily the one you are born into but the one you choose.

How did I miss this? How did my little geeky syfy loving heart not know this!?!?!?

I hate networks, I hate hate hate them!  Netflix save us.  Okay I might be being a bit dramatic but I somehow missed the cancellation notice for a few shows that I love!

1. Dominion - OMG are you kidding me!!?!?  It ended on an effing cliff hanger!  It ended eluding to Lucifer being the next big baddie.  How bad where the ratings?!?!  They couldn't have been that terrible!  Could they have been?  I don't think you understand Syfy, I want to know what happens!  I need more Chris Egan and Tom Wisdom and ya know what I need them all back on my screen!  Here's hoping Netflix does something.  I mean I had high hopes for Constantine but alas that didn't f**king happen.  (yes, I know this was NBC but I am still pissed).  I had no idea this was canceled.  I missed the announcement.  I only found out because I went to vote for something else as a Netflix series reboot and saw this one....soooooo sorry Forever I love you and all but this got my vote.  Ahhhhh, don't take this one too, dammit!

2.  Helix - Okay, yes last season wasn't the "best" but we are left with questions at the end of Season two.  I mean I am not as angry about this one as I am about #1 but I did enjoy this show and the characters.  And I kind of want to know more.   But I guess I can see they may be running out of stories.  I mean how far can you stretch this immortal blood virus strain thing. 

3. Defiance - I knew that season finale felt...well final.  Not sure if the writers had an inkling or not but at least we got some sort of closure.  I will still miss this show though.  I haven't been this excited about a Syfy original series since Eureka.  Defiance was a fantastical glance at a future where we are "invaded".  Where as a species we have to learn how to adapt if we want to survive.  It was different but relatable.  The characters were so complex and well written.  I can't tell you how many times this show not just tugged but RIPPED my heart out...yet I still wanted more.  I hate that we will never find out what happens to Nolan, Irisa, the Tarr's, etc.  I mean we get an idea of what might happen in their futures in the finale but I really wanted so much more.  Although I will miss this show, at least it got a better send off than some others...*cough* Forever *ahem*. Yes I know that was ABC but I am still angry about it. 

Fox don't let me down!  Don't you dare cancel Bones or Sleepy Hollow...please... or did I miss that announcement too???

Side note - How the f**k did all these great shows get canceled yet we still get Salem.  I mean I'm not complaining.  I like the show but I thought for sure it was getting axed.

Oh, say it isn't so!!! I guess all GREAT things must come to an end...

So it was announced the other day that ANOTHER one of my fav shows is entering into its last season.  It isn't a fantasy, horror, or drama.  It is a science-y show.  It is MythBusters.  It is the show that kept my love of all things science alive.  I've watched it loyally since 2003 when it first aired.  I can't believe this will be it.  I will have to get my Myth fix in reruns!!! 

I've never been happier that I decided to buy tickets to their live show!  At least I'll get to see it LIVE before they are off the air.  I only hope...pray...that it doesn't get canceled like the Craig Ferguson show did because of "lack of interest".  How can you NOT be interested in Craig Ferguson...he's freaking hilarious!  Anyways, I'm crossing every appendage I have in hopes that the live show will go on here in NOLA. 

My point is this show ending makes me sad.  As knowledgeable as I am about all things science, I obviously don't know everything (yet).  I've learned so many things from this show.  Some of it is applicable in daily life and some isn't but I still KNOW it because of them. 

For instance, the way germs spread.  I think that episode scarred me.  Yea we all know sick people are walking petri dishes but to see it spread on everything, YUCK!  That even if a Myth is disproved, blowing things up is always the most fun.  It's not science unless you singe an eye brow....or arm hair...or any hair on your body for that matter.  Duck Tape can be used for ANYTHING, including making a f**king workable cannon!  Having a tattoo in and MRI will not rip your skin off (possible irritation but nothing will explode).  Watching Thermite burn is so cool...volatile but soooo cool.  You can't "bend" the trajectory of a bullet like in Wanted.  It would take a lot of mirrors to create a death-ray and although its really pretty it doesn't really work.  Buster is a really good sport.  And just so many other things it is impossible to list them all here. 

I hate that such a fun science-y show is leaving our airways.  But like I said all good things must come to an end.  I guess we all knew something was up when the build team was "let go" last year. And although I ADORE Kari, Grant and Tory...Jamie and Adam hold a special place in my little science heart (you know the part of my heart that likes to see things blown up, because reasons).  I can't wait to see what crazy Myths make up the final season but I am sad to know it is coming to an end.  Fourteen years is a good run for any show but I guess it is time to say farewell.  Seriously though, I feel like I am saying goodbye to my favorite science teacher(s), *le sigh*.
