Caught the finale over the weekend (I kind of wish I'd been able to see the previous 4 first, but it wasn't to be). Everything that made Foster's such a brilliant series was jampacked into this episode, I mean, the amount of references to past episodes and gags that they crammed in was quite something. Bloo acting nice was hilarious to watch, and I also think they got the sentimality of the occasion spot on, while keeping it wonderfully restrained. I was totally NOT expecting that ending though. Cheese had to get in there one way or another, after all.
That last animation of the house being "erased" was when it got me, though. Without sounding dramatic, I've still got a bitter, sad taste in my throat from that one part. It's just hard to believe that's it's done and dusted after 5 brilliant years.
Really sweet at the end credits too. Thanks so much for the memories, Craig and Lauren.
