Never has, and never will there be such an ending to a newsgroup. I mean, after the complaints have died down in a week or two about the last epidode, what's going to happen? Are people still going to converse in here, or will the usenet suddenly drop this off it after the number of posts start getting low?
I think I'm going to lurk here for awhile. It should be interesting.
BTW, since I'm here, I have to say the show had promise, until it got to the trial. Of course, the last half was bad, but I did enjoy it up to then. It's sad to say, I enjoyed the 45 minute replay clips more than the finale. That at least brought back memories of some of the times I laughed the loudest.
My condolences to all you true fans who have been on this newsgroup for a long while, because I'm sure you're going to see more trolling than has ever happened before.

"Several years ago, some smart businessmen had an idea: Why not build a big store where a do-it-yourselfer could get everything he needed at reasonable prices? Then they decided, nah, the hell with that, let's build a home center. And before long home centers were springing up like crabgrass all over the United States." --Dave Barry, "Taming of the Screw"
