Of Course He's Dead: Part 1 & 2

I won't go into detail about how bad the finale was, since most of the above reviewers covered that pretty well. Bottom line: very nice to see some of the old faces, but the show itself managed to be almost completely devoid of any laughs.

Most of the "humor" seemed to come from either taking shots at the show itself, i.e., that it had gone on too long, or by taking shots at Charlie Sheen - not the Charlie Harper character, but personal shots at Sheen himself. Which all felt pretty weird, since it was like continued slaps in the face of the fans who obviously didn't think the show had gone on too long (or they wouldn't have still been watching) and most of whom who had developed some genuine affection for Charlie Sheen/Charlie Harper. So when the show was over you were left with this kind of empty, kind of sad, feeling. Which sure was a strange way for a long-running sitcom to go out. I'm going to have a little trouble watching the syndicated reruns for a while.

I was also real disappointed seeing Jon Cryer join in the ridicule of Sheen - particularly the jab at Anger Management. Just felt like a stab in the back somehow and beneath the usually classy Cryer.

I never would have guessed the depth of Chuck Lorre's anger/bitterness toward Sheen. I mean it's been over three years now - get over it. I guess it's Lorre who could use some anger management. To some degree I don't blame Lorre, since I hardly knew who he was before the Sheen feud, but now I'll forever think of him as this petty, unpleasant guy with a very brittle ego. Still, after all this time he should have put it aside and behaved in a professional manner. Didn't he have some friends who could have warned him how poorly this was going to reflect on his image? I'm guessing he's going to regret this show for the rest of his life. "Winning"? A lot closer to "losing".

Just a sad ending all around.

I watched this show on-and-off for a few years growing up. I didn't pay much attention to it, but my dad was a big fan - atleast up until Ashton Kutcher's introduction - and I got to see bits of it while he watched it, waiting for my turn to use the TV.

I had a bit of nostalgia for it, so I decided to watch the whole thing this year.

I really liked the Charlie seasons and enjoyed the show with Walden quite a bit too.

Although this last season was awful, I hoped that the finale would atleast tie some things together and bring some sense of satisfaction regarding the journey of the characters. That it would give a good conclusion to everything, like any good ending does.

I can't believe that this opportunity was wasted in favor of such a pathetic ending.

Why wouldn't you show Alan's wedding, maybe a marriage proposal of Walden to his new girlfriend.

End the show on a good note, a married and happy Walden with his adoptive son and a wife, a good life for Alan and Lyndsey, have a better set up for Berta's retirement, or perhaps more than five seconds devoted to Jake's marriage.

That would be very cliché, but even that is better than this abomination.

Why turn the last minutes of a 12 season show into the sitcom equivalent of a petty youtuber disstrack?

I can't imagine the disappointment of all of the people who watched the show every week for 12 years only to end on this mediocre blooper reel of an episode. I watched it for half a year and I'm still pretty disappointed.

I enjoyed the show with Walden, Jenny and all the other character most people hate. I even sat through the last season without many grievances - except boredom - but this last episode is truly the worst finale of a sitcom or show in general I've seen in my life.

Even a 'the entire show was a dream' type of finale would have been better.

Chuck wanted to seek his revenge on Charlie, & didn't realise (or maybe he did) he spoilt it and ridiculed his loyal audience instead.

Chuck Lorre has made it very clear that it means more to him to end a mostly breezy, funny and at many times a 12 year long amazing TV show by cracking lame jokes and potshots at Charlie Sheen's expense in the finale than make it good. Seriously ? I never knew the writers could be so childish. Watching this episode was really painful. Why pull the Charlie thread at all if you didn't want anything to do with him anyway ? What makes it worse is that they tried to generate the maximum interest by moving the plot around Charlie. Even missing from the show for 4 years, Charlie still takes in more eyeballs than the rest of them combined. Also I didn't like the aspects of his personal life being shown condescendingly...like tiger blood etc. C'mon, this is a TV sitcom and that's someone's personal life. Keep them apart. This honestly looked like a rant of a jealous baby rather than a finale of a 12 year old sitcom. Shameful.

In the vanity card at the very end of the closing credits you guys will see that Chuck Lorre was a douche to Charlie Sheen till the last breath .but the entire episode is a colossal red herring — building up to a climax that never happens.

It was a cheap ploy for ratings, bating the audience with the possible appearance of Sheen. Then it's like, "get lost audience" those 12 years of watching… and the final moment we trick you." Despicable!

they said they offered Charlie a role but he didn't like it and he wanted to do some other one of his own ,, oh i would watch charlie even if it was for a minute telling the audience to F.. off :P .. I'm really disappointed .

Honestly i don't even know why i gave it 3 stars !! maybe it's because i'm a loyal fan !! or it's for bringing Jake back even for a 40 second !! :\
