Immediately what I thought of, haha. But it was appropriate. This was a show that truly loved its characters, from the core cast to the recurring Pawnee weirdos. Pawnee was such a well realized, iconic setting like Springfield or the Island.
I can say now that, apart from the first season, this was one of the most consistently good shows I've ever seen and it has ended on a strong note. It was always funny, always a joy to watch. I will miss it but I'm more glad that I got to experience it over seven seasons. It had a full life, which was a real blessing given how it never had strong ratings. I guess I should thank NBC for that, although there's now nothing left on the network I'm interested in watching. Their run of incredible comedies has come to an end.
