Just as there are countless television series brought into this world each year, a large quantity of them go gently into that good night every season. But it never gets any easier to say goodbye to the shows that made us laugh, gasp, cry, or sneer with ironic glee. Life has a funny way of making us emotional about media; perhaps because, for many of us, it’s the only comfort we have.
To honor the fallen—whether by their own hand or another’s—The Daily Beast’s Obsessed team gathered together to eulogize the shows we’ll miss most. Take a seat in the pew, grab the tissues we’ll be passing around, and remember the good times with us. Don’t forget to pay your respects at the door.
