So, what did you guys think of the series finale of Standoff? I hated it. I can't believe that it ended like that. There was absolutely no closure. Did they get back together, or not? There were more questions than answers, and I hate it when they do that. Was I the only one that hated the series finale? What did you think of the series finale? I'm still mad that the show is over. I love this show, it's usually got me by the seat of my pants, and I love not being able to figure out the ending right away, like with other shows. It's so smart and intriguing, and............., and.......it's all over (wiping away the tears). I need some moral support!!!

That episode wasn't meant as a series finale. They got canceled before they could shoot an appropriate ending and tie the loose ends together. It's a shame to the fans who get into shows and then are left hanging when they have invested their time in the show.

Thanks. I hate it when they do that. All the episode for a season should be shown. IF they don't want to show it on that date and time, they could switch it, and hopefully let us know well enough in advance so that we could watch it. I mean, with all the damned repeats that go on in the summer, can't they find a way to air them all? It just makes sense to me - but who the hell am I any ways? Just a fan of the awesome shows that disappear, like Vanished did!!

Yeah. In this case they did air all the episodes. I just think if they cancel a series midseason and pull the plug, they should make one last episode even though the show is canceled. I mean, everyone is under contract, why not? Just to give the viewers some kind of ending that makes sense.

Yes, I agree. That would make sense. IF they're under contract any ways, why the heck not!

Standoff - Matt and Emily. They belong together.
I absolutely loved this show. I am so very disappointed that they cancelled this show. I am happy that they at least left me thinking that they were going to work things out and get back together. They definitely belong together. I hated that guy she went on a date with. I think it is a big mistake to cancel this show. It is some real quality television.

It seems to me that every time I find a decent, quality. show to watch, it ends up off the air before the end of the season, and that just isn't right. Shows should ha pegal obligations to at least finish the last episode.

I didn't realize that was the final episode. Now I am going to cry too. I really wish they would change their mind on ths one. I loved that show. I didn't really like the way it ended either but I think they will get back together.

I'd like to assume that since it was the series finale that they do end up back together. I know that they didn't get along well during the detention center episode, but I didn't remember them breaking up. Then all of a sudden, in that last episode, they started it with them alreay broken up. It was weird how the episode began and ended.
