Saddest ending ever.

Space: Above and Beyond has the saddest ending ever. Seriously? I was crying!

Cooper as he sits on Vansen's bed: "Now I know how she felt her whole life. I lost my mother and father on the same day."

And then the pan shot out with just Cooper and West lying on fallen comrades beds and... shit! So sad, way too sad. And the whole reveal with the Chig... Ugh. *sniffle* Way to take your show out with a bang and some realism to boot.

And to make myself feel a little better I made me a McQueen icon. *points* I volunteer to enter sci-fi land in order to sit a vigil at his bedside. *nods* It's a tough gig, but I'm willing to do it.

I used to love Space: Above and Beyond, but sadly no-one seems to know what I'm talking about when I say things like, "See that new version of Battlestar Galactica? It may be brilliant and everything, but it owes a hell of a lot to Space: Above and Beyond." A sadly underrated and under-appreciated show.

And yeah. Saddest. Ending. Ever. (Although I'm still waiting to see how Supernatural's going to end...)

Weirdly I liked the S4 ending of SPN. I could have stopped there. It'll be interesting to see what S5 brings though.

I kind of likened Space: Above and Beyond to the movie Aliens actually. I could imagine if the military characters that go down with sigourny to the planet got more of a story, it'd be a bit like Space: Above and Beyond. I can see what you mean by the feel of the new BSG though too. :)
