I finally took the opportunity to watch the entire series from start to finish. I remember I started watching the show on TV back in 1998 when it came out. The first episode captured my attention, and back then I must have watched the first two seasons, but I never got around to watching the rest until now.

It was wonderful to revisit what made Felicity so special: the main characters Felicity, Noel, and Ben; the support characters Sean, Elena, Meghan, Javier, Richard, and many others; the different relationships; and most importantly, the chemistry between the characters. The way it was filmed made it heart-warming, happy, sad, funny, and at times heart-wrenching.

The reason I gave it a 9 is because even though they were asked to film five more episodes for season 4, those episodes were ultimately unnecessary. They just seemed extraneous and awkward, and as others have also stated, inconsistent.

I didn't understand why Elena and Tracy had to suddenly reappear at Noel and Zoey's wedding, given that Elena supposedly died at the beginning of episode 18, and Tracy had gone away and hadn't even kept in touch with anyone.

In my mind, the series was wrapped up more perfectly with episode 17 than episode 22. Otherwise this will still always be one of my favourite shows of all time.
