The Neighborhood Series Finale Says Goodbye to Dave Johnson (and Finally Gets Emotional About It)
After eight seasons of power tools, uninvited backyard visits and enough culture-clash tropes to fill a textbook, CBS has officially closed the book on the Butlers and the Johnsons. The series finale, "Welcome to Goodbye," didn't just wrap up loose ends; it tied them into a double-knotted bow of weddings and moving boxes. For a show that started with a skeptical Calvin Butler wondering why a white family would ever move to Pasadena, it ended with the most predictable, yet odd
