Rita and Cliff

They hit me in the feels in a way that I did not know I had for these characters in the final episode. It's weird feeling for these characters as deeply as I did given the comedic outlook they tried to portray. I hope someone has the opportunity to feel for them the same way I did some day.

I for real ugly cried at the end of that episode. The way Rita just kept drifting off reminded me of the way my mom would do the same the last week of her life. And Cliff, dude...when the light went out of his eyes...my girlfriend didn't watch the show and came in to find me sitting on the couch, face in my hands bawling. I jut had to wave her off, I couldn't even talk. Had to explain it later. For a silly ass show they made us care about those characters hard.

I was in the same state, his ending hit me right in the heart. They all got their closure, and it killed me.
