6-23 Recap	It's Salinger-ific! All's Well That Ends Well - The series finale is bittersweet. Well, it's mostly bitter.

6-22 Recap	Call Your Agents, People Falling Forward - The second to last episode of this series ever goes out with a whimper, and a bang. Julia whines about how no one wants her to write about anything except the Ned situation. Claudia and Todd consumate their relationship, and Todd didn't even need a manual. Oh yeah, the male Salingers did some stuff too, except for Owen.	04.25.2000 04.25.2000	D	Kim

Something tells me Holly wont' be a part of the season finale, and things aren't looking good for Will either.	04.18.2000 04.18.2000	N/A	Kim
