As a fan of this show from before day one, just had to post what a great finale I thought it was. From the moment Summer left on the bus, until the very end with Ryan and the young boy, I could not stop crying. As a huge Marissa and Marissa/Ryan fan, i'm so glad that she was mentioned, by Summer of course and then with the montage at the end. I think I was happy because I was expecting more of a recap of the past years and instead we got a future and that was awesome.
Dom: I loved what you posted about Ryan leaving Marissa and his feelings for her in Newport. That just totally brought more tears to my eyes because it makes perfect sense. He will never forget her, she will always be a part of his life, but in a way, he can move on and have a bright future.
I will so miss this show, but like Adam said, "“Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoyed it. If you are upset, don’t worry, there are DVDs.”!!"
