The Most Emotional Farewell in TV History
- Thread starter Maximum Spider
- Start date
I've watched this show years ago, yet watching these 10 minutes brings me tears in a jiffy. A masterpiece.
Still get chills from that image.It's impossible not to get choked up watching this.
Lost was incredible.
Not topical but this is really close to Bowie's last album. Listening to it before and after his passing is entirely different and frames the whole thing in a different light. I would never have guessed the album was about his eventual passing and it's still hard to listen to today with the knowledge of its background.
The final episode of Roy & HG's The Dream, the most entertaining thing to ever come out of an Olympics.
Doesn't matter. Anytime you claim anything is the "best" or "most" of anything others are going to tell why you why you're wrong or bring up their own examples. If the conversation was only supposed to be about this scene, the OP should have left the superlatives out of it.
For me it's Roslin's death. Those last words, between shallow, gasping breaths. That music. Edward James Olmos's acting. Perfection.
I just finished watching The Leftovers,
and the scene where Nora says goodbye to her brother killed me.
I love the twin peaks goodbye
Myself I still remember the 8 simple rules episode where John Ritter character died, I watched the episode live and remembered getting chocked watching it

Several good ones mentioned, but Nate's Death in Burn Notice I think is often overlooked in these kind of threads. When Nate said he was scared and that tear rolled down his face that destroyed me.
I'd have to agree with the OP. It's a sad farewell for a beloved character, but also an extremely emotional fourth wall break of an actress confronting her own mortality and baring her fears and emotions. I can't think of anything else like it. The Return really was something else.

Yeah, I don't get the hate for the ending. It was awesome. Loved how that last scene tied back to the opening one
Don't care how much of Era hates the ending but this brought me to tears.
Coy and Vance Duke. They didn't even get a proper "goodbye", they just up and disappeared. So sad.
This scene made me so angry tbh. Choosing to leave your kid an orphan is pretty messed up.
No competition... Six Feet Under wins easily for the best farewell ever.
It's so perfect that I still cry even after all these long years :-'(
Yeah this show was much better than I was expecting. Greg leaving was pretty surprising and sad.
For added context since some may not know:
The actor who portrayed Mr. Hooper had died the previous year and I think the plan was to either write him off or replace the actor but they had decided to use his death to help teach about death and grieving.
If I remember right, Big Bird's 'drawing' of Mr. Hooper hung in his shop for decades.
Fucking this fucking shit fucking wrecked me.
I marathoned all 5 seasons in 4 days. It was insane.
This scene made me mad, not sad. This whole show is fucking trash, christ. They just leave their kid.
Nah. He went out like a chump.
A better farewell from a better doctor.
:o that is insane.
Though tbf i once watched 170 episodes of Bleach in 5 days.
Don't care how much of Era hates the ending but this brought me to tears.
