The season finale was one of the most emotional episodes of TV I've seen, not only for this show, but on TV period. It was the perfect ending, and the creators are only digging the grave deeper if they continue on.
The show has always been one of the best on TV. Even the "bad" episodes are still entertaining to say the least. It's common sense to end it now that all the characters' stories have been told, and we don't care about the interns.
Lawrence needs to create another show. This one's done.
