‘Happy Endings’
Surely you know the deal by now: Happy Endings was a critically-acclaimed but under-watched show that was canceled way too soon. We’re still mad about Happy Endings’ fate, but we’re grateful for the 57 episodes we got (and also grateful that they live on via streaming). I mean, by today’s standards? 57 episodes might as well be the most successful, like, Netflix show to ever exist! The fact that Happy Endings, a surreal comedy with an a soon-to-be all-star cast, aired on ABC is what’s wild. What initially looked like a 21st century Friends clone ended up being one of the silliest, most subversive network sitcoms ever, with Casey Wilson, Adam Pally, and Damon Wayans Jr. turning out Emmy-worthy performances.
