Final Frasier
What sort of tricks do the writers employ to make the final show nostalgic? In Seinfeld it was the trial where everyone came to testify against all the main characters. Hell for all of these characters would be having to face responsiblity for the pain they caused others. In the end, they were sent to hell for what they did. Most people didn't seem to catch that view of the finale, however, they did see that most of the fun secondary roles came back to testify. In Frasier, a few of the main characters went to the wedding. Both are acts that have to be performed by someone licensed by the state, that have legal consequences, and that draw in many spectators and participants. It is fun to watch how the writers try to deal with the final episodes. Most people seem to hate the final Seinfeld: I loved it. I think that the Finale of Frasier was alright but not too wonderful. Oh well.
