That was as moving as the very last episode of Morse.

Beautiful last season. Hate to see this one come to an end. Very seldom does a series develop into such a masterpiece. Every character is as loved as the next; true art when every character is developed into a critical piece of the puzzle. Sad, sad, sad to see this one end.

My husband and I were faithful followers of Endeavor and Morse over the years. Sadly, my husband was terminally ill and died just a week before the last season of Endeavor began. I managed to watch this last season alone through a lot of tears. It was such a bittersweet ending for the both of us.

Endeavour was some of the best television I have seen - ever, and I'm 73 years old! Great work from everyone concerned. And that last scene, where the black Jag and the red one passed, and we see the flash of John Thaw's eyes in the mirror - absolutely brilliant, took my breath away.

I’ve watched all the productions from the original Morse to the last bonus of the ninth season O.D. Endeavor. I’m 70. What a brilliant journey to get lost in. The quality of all involved over the years is unmatched. I’m ever so grateful. Especially after the pandemic depression and feeling like America’s democracy is hanging by a thread.

Splendid ending; won't give it away but yes a fitting tribute to you all and RIP John Thaw, Barrington Pheloung, and Colin Dexter.

So sad to see it all end. After the finale (which was perfect), I had to go back and rewatch Ep. 4 of Season 2 to refresh my memory of Blenheim Vale. This show has been such a gift to us all and I'm so grateful that we'll be able to watch reruns on PBS for years to come. Shaun Evans deserves so many kudos for his performances and directing skills. I look forward to watching him in anything he participates in.

I am so glad John Thaw’s daughter was part if this. Having watched all of Morse and Lewis this show was a gem! Thank you all for your beautiful work! - - - - - •-• ••• •

I loved this show. And I loved Morse.

I loved the way that they picked actors that so closely resembled Jim Strange and Dr DeBryn in their later years in Morse. The most poignant thing was when Endeavour was looking into his car mirror right at the end and we see John Thaw's eyes. I have to admit I had to blow my nose a few times. It's a series I will really miss.

Truly the end of an era. We watched all the Morse seasons, and then Lewis, and now this one is ending. What are we going to do? Thank you for all the delightful times.

Like the title reads: Farewell Endeavor. You gave the public the best you had. Thank you. Hope to see you in future endeavors.

i’m still emotionally distraught over the series finale yesterday, cannot believe such an amazing series has come to an end. kudos to everyone involved, thank you, thank you, thank you. still hoping tho that maybe in the future, a special movie could be made of the reunion or a continuation of endeavour’s story, before he properly becomes inspector morse ❤️

I watched the series finale last night & I’m still thinking about it. Love the time period, the Oxford setting, the actors and the writing.

Very sorry for this to end. I watched episode 3 this morning and was surprised at the ending which showed the older Morse in a car passing him. ❤️ There’s always reruns!!

Last night I watched the final (and by far the best, in my view) episode of Endeavor - a heartbreaking, elegiac, worthy ending, from which I’m still struggling to recover. It roused all my deepest feelings about the relentlessness of change, of moving on, of lost opportunities and missed loves and of things that can never be put right, despite our sincere efforts, and of the honor of duty and integrity. Those eternal lines from The Tempest and the “In Paradisum” from the Faure Requiem were achingly beautiful grace notes. And the passing cars and eyes in the rearview nearly finished me off. The three gents at the heart of the story, and the glorious actors who played them, will live on in my heart. Beautifully done, everyone, and all my best wishes and thanks.

This was such an amazing show and the final episode was brilliant as soon as it was over I wanted to go and rewatch all nine seasons again I'm definitely going to miss the show in my opinion it's one of the best tv shows in the last ten years hat's off to all involved in making this show it was absolutely brilliant

Wonderful show - feel like I'm losing a group of close friends. Thank you to everyone who made this such an amazing production.

One of the absolute best television ever. Great cast. Great stories, great dialogue, character study, makes other "crime" shows pale in comparison. Will watch again for sheer pleasure. Thank you to All.♥️

From Morse, through Lewis, and then Endeavour they all make up a unique body of work. Unique has to be the word because I suspect that there will never be a more original and long running detective series as this one. At every level from story, through acting, through direction, and so on, it has gripped us all across the world as great television. It had to come to an end but what an amazingly brilliant ride it was.!!

Absolutely loved the change over when he looks in the rear vision mirror and sees himself in 20 years. Totally perfect finish. Amazing series.

A great show that I'll dearly miss. The acting , the story lines were second to none. I will have to go back and watch every season, just to bring back the memories. That is one of the good things about retirement. You can do things like that. LOL.

The best. I will miss the show terribly. Thank you to all the actors and everyone involved. Greetings from Canada.

With this show ending I feel as if I'm losing friends. Such great writing and acting .😢

Love this series and I am sorry to see it go. That ending was fnatastic

Such an elegant, fun, and beautifully created series. I just learned that Abigail Thaw is John Thaw's daughter. When he died it felt like a dear uncle had died. May he rest in peace. Thank you.

I will miss so much Endeavour. Such a great show.. brilliant acting.. mystery, drama, opera,history, nostalgia, detectives, love, family..all in one show.. Thank you to all Endeavour Family..❤

Sorry to see it end. Such talented actors.

Very much enjoyed this series. The last scene, where the two Morse characters pass each other in their Jaguars, was so very moving to someone who watched both series with complete enjoyment. Thank you to everyone who brought us these jewels.

Great actors + great writers + great directors and crew = great entertainment. Thanks for the memories.

With this ending really comes the ending-- and it really is tough for me to grasp it- I guess mainly because I am so much older than what I was when I first saw my first Morse episode and the real world now is so different - have enjoyed these past years with Endeavour and reading all the comments…….take care🙏❤️

One way folks can help deal with the “Endeavor” finale which came too soon is to help themselves *and* PBS by buying the DVD set through PBS itself.

It’s a very sad day for me. My first child was brought into the world while I was watching the first series, and each time the following series came out some sort of life changing experience happened. I feel I have a connection to this character and coming to the realisation that this is the end is quite difficult. I’ve loved it for decades, and that includes Lewis and sergeant, Hathaway. Thank you to all the cast and crew for decades of a very fine show.

one of the best shows ever , superbly written and the soundtrack download it!

What is about this program? As we entered the last episodes, and then the very last, I found myself tearing up! Now explain that to me if you will? I have loved all the persons of Endeavor, I didn’t realize how much so. As each new season approached I felt anticipation bubbling up as the first episode was shown on our public television station. The theme music has always been something that fed the anticipation as well. I imagine at some point when able I will have to purchase the entire series to be able to revisit anytime. I have watched pbs since the days of Upstairs Downstairs and loved many series over all those years, Endeavour is and always will be among the few at the top of my list. You ALL will be missed! Thank EVERYONE involved in the production of this series!!

What an extraordinary cast - and crew. People devoted to their craft. A legacy. That's what they leave. Kudos to Russell Lewis, the writer, and the crew and everyone involved. What superb job - well done.
