*mumble* BOOM!

Half-way through the Frasier series finale on C4. Robbie Coltrane's turn (as one of the Moon brothers) is pure comedy genius. :-D

EDIT: I think that can go down as one of the good series endings.

Yes, that was really really good. I fel sad and proud of them.

It was good, yes. I liked Frasier; sure, it could be cringe-inducing at times, but it was also howlingly funny on a regular basis. The ending was just the right balance of self-indulgence and sentiment and story, I think.

Yes, I liked the very ending: it was always likely it would go that way but by two minutes from the end I thought they had left it too late to try it.

Did you notice that the guy who came to take Martin's chair away was the same one who delivered it eleven years ago?

I didn't, no! That was a nice touch.

I liked it too - will miss Frasier very much, can't think of anything quite like it that's still on TV. The only problem I had with the last ep was that whole concept of rushing to get people married/give birth in the same 30 seconds...

True, but I took it as one more in Frasier's grand tradition of massively improbable timing for the sake of farce. :)

But NONE OF HER BROTHERS ARE FROM MANCHESTER IN THE SLIGHTEST.

Idiot 'merkin idiots.

To be fair, it's more than a little tenuous as to whether she is from Manchester, so I think that argument was lost long ago. :)

I actually only watched this because the TV was still on in the bedroom when I went to bed and I never realised it was the end episodes until half the way through.

It made me sad. :-/
