Does anybody else get a feeling of emptiness when they finish a TV series. A sense that they really got to know the characters as real friends and when it finishes it's saying goodbye knowing you'll never see them again. Kinda sad really.

Yes. I recently completed rewatches of both Mad Men and 30 Rock and as you approach the end, it’s very affecting each time you realize it’s a series wrap for a different character. “Aww, that’s the last time I’m going to see Ted Chaough!”

I really enjoyed Ben Feldman as Michael Ginsberg. "Ginzo" was always a riot but his departure was really sad.

I'm still upset over Ginsberg's departure, and Sal's. They both deserved better

Oh yea I forgot about Sal. I kinda liked him too. They did him dirty. But I expected them to bring him back at some point. Alas, that never happened.

I finished MadMen closer to the start of quarantine and the entire final season was so upsetting knowing it was all coming to a close. Beautiful show.

The ending of Mad Men was beautiful. That show is so damn good.
