Can't believe this is the last episode! What a travesty for them to have cancelled it without even finishing out the season. That said, I remember other Incredible shows around this time like 'My So Called Life' and 'Brooklyn Bridge' that also received much critical praise and numerous awards, only to be cancelled after a season or two. Thank you for sharing these!

Thank you Abe_Froman for uploading all the episodes. But the last one cut out at 31 minutes. Would have liked to see it all.

This is the last episode of the series. You can see the future storylines they were building throughout this season. It's a shame that they never had the chance to continue the stories of Lilly Harper, Forrest Bedford, and their families. It would have been terrific.

Is it? I was thinking there were about 2 more. So does this episode actually end with the student's being convicted? That's what I remember about the last episode. Then when it had to be cancelled they did the movie to give it closure. I was soooo vexed when they cancelled this but I'm glad they didn't just cancel, they gave it closure, they fought for it and they really highlighted the importance of the issues they brought forward. I think it also got some awards. I remember Sam Waterston giving a very stirring speech about the importance of the show even though it was over. I had hoped that they could still save it.

Addendum: Ok so seeing the note on the movie they did just cancel. PBS stepped in to give it closure.

[@PerthTowne]

@@aleezamoseley1380 Yes, they gave it closure with a TV movie called something like I'll Fly Away: Then and Now.

So much of the series was law based. Good call to focus on the double-standards in terms of education in this the last episode. I appreciated all the episodes you uploaded... without taking anything away from that - well... "argh!!" that this episode is incomplete here. Anyway, you did good. Thank-you for allowing us all to revisit this gem of a series.

thanks for uploading these episodes. i was wondering if you had all the episodes and could please upload them. one of the best shows I have seen hands down

[@annetteholman2999]

I hate to see this fine series end! It could have gone on for several more seasons but I'm glad I could see it again after so many years. Thank you enormously for allowing us to learn from it again. Is there any other program of comparable depth and quality?

[@outdoorman7425]

would have liked to have seen the end if this episode befor it crashes in the final moments leaving me in a cliffhanger.

Nathan is in love with a very pretty girl. Sigh....

[@heatheroakshott9777]

Is there any chance of seeing series 3 😊

[@antoniboleslawowicz8095]

Incomplete?

[@stevenlaboe3585]

That was a tad disappointing. 😳
