The best finale a show could have

8.0

By The_Fisherman, Nov 07, 2007

Van sets their house on fire and him and Cheyenne go to live with Reba, BJ says she's moving to Arkansas for her new job, Brock says he's changed and will go where ever she wants him to, they get back together, Reba calls BJ her best friend, they gather for a family photo, Reba says they had a crazy six years together but they got through it all because they're survivors, as the photo is shown the theme song plays and the audience applauses and the photo from Van and Cheyenne's wedding is shown. This is the best series finale I've ever seen. This show began well and ended well.moreless

This was one of the best shows ever in my opinion. I can't believe Reba was cancelled. This was a show I could sit down with my kids and not worry about what they were watching. I just hate to hear this was the last, even though there is reruns everywhere on Reba, I still am sad to know it will no longer be. I do watch Reba everyday, but its getting to where Im seeing episode for 3-4 times now. I still love it though and can't get enough..

Bring Reba Back! Bring Reba Back! Bring Reba Back! Sincerely

SERIES FINALE

10

By mitmfan78650, Jul 30, 2007

This is the end of what is probabally one of the top 10 shows in th entire world! I thought that it was great that Reba got a proper series finale. Most shows now a days get cancelled without warning and their series finale doesn't bring any closure. This is also one of the few modern series's to break 100 episodes. Reba deffinitly should've gone on for another 5 seasons and had over 200 episodes but shows today aren't making it as well. I'm still glad Reba got many interesting episodes, (this is one of the few shows I LOL to) and it will be greatly missed. Reba: 2001 - 2007.moreless

What A Waste!!!

By blizair09, Jul 23, 2007

I have lukewarm feelings about this series finale of Reba. I believe that the writers, cast and crew knew that this was most likely the last episode that would be filmed, so they tried to bring closure to the series while keeping the door open for a possible (though not probable) return. Reba had long been the most popular sitcom on the WB network and held this distinction during its limited run on the CW network. It is such a shame that the CW powers that be could not look past their beloved "sought after demographics" to recognize and reward this gem of a show. Considering that the network is struggling, they should hang on to the few things that work for them. So long Reba. You will be missed and I hope that all of the Reba cast and crew will hold their chuckles and "told you so's" inside as best as they can when this sub-par network folds in the near future!moreless
