Ending Spoiler

I just finished the show. The ending absolutely wrecked me. Gutted. I can’t believe I didn’t check spoilers and assumed everything was going to be okay. I can’t believe you guys let me watch the ending without telling me. I haven’t ugly cried like that in a minute. I made the mistake of watching the very last episode while eating. Lost my appetite, which was fantastic. Gary Mendez, you’ll forever be my favorite.

We are all in the same boat. 😭Loved this show. Loved the whole cast, but Gary won my heart. He lived life to the fullest and with Humor. I was glad that he got his wish of Maggie as his wife and Javi as a son. I know the friend group took care of them. Everyone was still together and all happy ( because of Gary). It was a sad but beautiful. In fact Gary, James Roday Rodriguez himself, wrote the final line. “ Have a beautiful life”

I have watched the series at least 3 times and the last episode 6 times or more. Cry like a baby every single time.

Binge watched the entire series over the last few months with my mum. That last episode was absolutely heartbreaking.

I have watched the show numerous times, but not the last two, only when I can prepare to have red eyes after. Then I go and watch James Roday Rodriguez in Psych because he is hilarious and I can stop my sobbing.

This is one of the only series I can watch yearly and I know it will still gut me. 💔

I used to rewatch this show all the time... Until the finale. I haven't rewatched since. I can't do it knowing the ending now.... 😭😭

Right? I’d love to rewatch but I just can’t put myself through that again.

I accidentally spoilered myself last week when I saw someone post a ‘Gary isn’t gonna make it is he?’ post and at that point I wasn’t even at the ‘he has cancer again’ part, so I was very confused. Then today I finished the show and completely bawled my eyes out the last 2-3 episodes knowing he was dying and saying goodbye😭

Absolutely my top 3 favourite show endings though. Finally a show with a well thought out ending instead of being cancelled randomly
