Still the worst ending ever. Cheap, easy, unfulfilling.
The ending was perfect. After you hear the bell, right away you saw Tony’s perspective, and the “black” was Tony’s perspective after Members Only guy shot him.
I hated the ending at the time but over the years I came to accept it as a statement about his future.
It also left open the possibility of a movie or a sequel but unfortunately he passed away in real life.
Without question the worst finale and the biggest betrayal of fans who followed a beloved story for years was the final episode of St. Elsewhere.
Agreed
