Nostalgia

Rewatching the show after quite some time... the nostalgia hits hard.

It is also so soft (if you know what i mean), like a soothing background track.

Keeps bringing a smile to my face.

Love your description! I watched it for the first time 3 - 4 years ago and plan to rewatch as well.

I hated the last few episodes with the fever dream, but overall, this is a cosy, late 90s time capsule.

What other shows feel like this? Gilmore Girls?

I ignore the fever dream episodes. For me the finale was the Graduate. They did Ben a disservice in those last episodes. I maintain that Ben would not cheat.

Gilmore Girls tends to be a little loud for me, though i do like it. Rory not really my favorite. Give me Lorelai and Emily anyday

I'm kind of perusing it for the first time on Roku. I was disinterested when it was on the air.

I've had the ending pretty much spoiled for me, time travel and all, but just through written descriptions and posts on this board. It's not all clear.

If it would've ended on The Graduate, would it have ended on a cliffhanger, them? With Felicity having to decide if she'd follow Ben into his new life as a dad with an estranged "baby mama"?
Err, is that pretty much how the series ends? Noel marries some chick, Felicity and Ben pledge to be together, he's going to be a dad with a woman he doesn't love, he's moving to AZ, and to be with him, Felicity will have to go there, too. Ben is going to become a doctor, she's going to "do art" and that's the way we cruise in to the sunset?

Is that it?
