Northern Exposure (1990-1995)

Sandra Carter53 said:Only that?!? 😲

Yes, I just double-checked the schedule. We are currently on episode 14 of season 6, and there are 23 episodes in total.

Indeed, he is. 😁

These recent episodes are an absolute disaster—we went from a chill, relaxed vibe to everyone just bickering constantly.

Thanks.

No, once Fleishman leaves the show (which should be in about three episodes), there's still one more season left!

🙂 On Monday, we have episode 6 of The Quest-15 season 6. Since this sixth season is the final one and consists of 23 episodes, that means we still have nine episodes remaining to experience. You can find all the details here.

Exactly, tell them like it is. Only 9 episodes left until the finale. #110

When does the series end?

It wouldn't have been the same without Joel... though honestly, it was always inevitable that he’d head back to his beloved New York City. And now here we are, seeing Ed with that bear cub.😍

That's so true, I totally feel you!😍😍😍😍😍

They really shouldn't have even bothered filming without Fleishman...

How many episodes are left in the season?

Richard Wilson4 said:They really should have stopped filming once Fleishman left...

I can't say I agree with that.
While it's true the show took a noticeable dip after Rob Morrow moved on—the quality definitely shifted—we still had plenty of standout episodes long after his departure...

I don't know, I just absolutely love this series, so I struggle to find any serious flaws in it.
I mean, it’s not like I was looking for one...

There isn’t a single moment in this show where things feel steady or hit that sweet spot of good vibes, even when you factor in how much that last season absolutely tanked.

I couldn't disagree more. This series is pure escapism—it’s relaxing, it’s uplifting, and honestly, there isn't a single character on screen that gets under my skin or annoys me.

I've loved them since I was a kid.😍

I second this. 😍

Alright, I haven't caught a ton of episodes—can someone catch me up? Why did Joel end up moving back to New York City?
Maggie and Chris???😲

Also, Eddie looks like he lost a massive amount of weight—it’s actually kind of scary! He used to be so handsome...😢

And Eddie looks terrible—he lost so much weight it actually scared me! He used to be so hot...😢

Look, Joel spent five whole years pining for New York City while stuck in Cicely, so it only makes sense that he finally headed back. Plus, he wasn't under any obligation to pay back his scholarship to Alaska anymore. Granted, the way he left was a bit ridiculous, but hey, that’s just how Northern Exposure works. 😍

Personally, I think Maggie and Chris are a fantastic couple. In today's episode, he was being incredibly sweet trying to force her out of his head. 🤣😍 Great episode.

By your math, the show should have ended ages ago, yet here we are.

Jason Morales88 said:Based on your logic, this series should have wrapped up ages ago, yet here we are still watching it unfold!

I wonder why you are becoming so fixated on the series reaching its conclusion. 🤣
By the way, if the news sites are to be believed, the rerun begins today, which would suggest yesterday was indeed the final episode.

I really hope that wasn't the final chapter, because if they’re actually going back to square one to start over, I am absolutely thrilled😍

I mean, what’s even the point of rerunning it the second it ends?👎

I actually liked the show, too—at least until they started sidelining the lead actor because of budget issues and management drama. By the end, half the series was basically happening without him.

If you can't even get the "main guy" to show up in the finale... how is any of it supposed to matter? It just stripped away all the meaning.🤷

But sure, let's just start reruns the very next day after the final episode. Makes perfect sense, right?👎🙄
