-When Michael Scott comes back to the office and blows through his “boom roasted” index cards. I actually get a little choked up when Stanley starts laughing
-When Aria trains with Brienne. When she does that spidery leap and lands in that scorpion pose, I get feelings
-Everything from when Kenny Powers attacks Ashley Schaeffer’s dinner to rescue Stevie the Geisha, all the way through the final shot of them laughing in the back of the pickup with the cannonball sticking out of the gate
Bottom paged Trag's post. Oops.

Well, I suppose if I allow myself to be sentimental, despite all that has occurred, there is one thing I wander back to.

Is "You can't take a picture of this, it's already gone." the best finale line of dialogue in TV show history?

No. Sam Malone saying, “We’re closed” is untouchable.
I used to record The Sopranos on VHS and send it from Cali to MN for my dad. What a great show!

Pizza, pepperoni thin crust from Dominos.
It was an hour of Seinfeld before a retrospective and then a 90-minute finale with no commercials. Then the cast was on Leno at the Bill & Finch after the late local news and most of them were already wasted from drinking all evening.

Another station aired a fake doc about killer cars hosted by Richard Belzer. I watched that instead.
