Series finale, part two.

8.0

King of Queens has come to an end, what a shame that is. At least it got 9 seasons of greatness, the finale was a pretty good payoff. Surprising to say the least.

The outcome of it all was a bit far-fetched but we got some genuinely heart-warming moments between Doug & Carrie. Them rushing to the airport was hilarious, the makeup was a bit predictable but it served it's purpose for what it was.

Arthur marrying Spencer's mom was also contrived but it was all pretty funny especially the confusion with the rabbi and the switch of the bride definitely brought us some good dynamics. The return of Holly was pretty sad, and all in all, she got a pretty depressing ending but she got some good lines tonight too.

Flashbacks couldn't have been better. Usually for most sitcoms, the flashbacks are usually spread out throughout the episode, glad to see we just got all those at the end there. The final scene was hilarious. Satisfying finale of KOQ.moreless

At Arthur's wedding reception, Doug and Carrie's marital tension continues, and they ponder whether they have a future together. It was so great! It was the perfect ending! Carrie is so hot! I loved when Holly came back for the wedding, and when Arthur married Veronica. I loved the little race to the Chinese adoption agency, then Carrie discovering she is pregnant. I believe that's what they wanted to do for the Sex and the City movie. Haha, Doug. "We're gonna have a baby!" "What are we gonna do with this one?!" Haha, I loved the closing scene. Classic KoQ moment. =] R.I.P. KoQ! ~9/21/1998 - 5/14/2007~moreless

I was so sad to see The King of Queens go, this was the greastest show of all time. Seeing this show go was very depressing, but the ending to the whole series was good. I loved how it all came together and that it all ended up being semi-happy. I thought it was so cool that they finally had a kid, and that when they adopted one that was cool too. The montage of all the clips from other episodes at the end was very good but very sad...this was the greatest ending to a series ever and i am sorry to see it go!moreless
