Q&A for How to Cope when Your Favorite TV Show Ends

The Vampire Diaries, Teen Wolf, The Originals, Being Human (UK, US), Supernatural, and True Blood are some examples of TV shows that are similar to Grimm.

Read fan fiction, or try writing your own. Look up the show's fandom for like-minded fans.

If there is any hope whatsoever that the show will continue, support it in any way possible to show the network that the show has an audience. Look for petitions online and sign them. Send the network an email. Maybe try contacting Netflix or Hulu about picking up your favorite show.

Just give it a try. Watch an episode or two; if you like it, continue watching. If you don't, find another show to watch. Search "shows like (blank)" and plenty of results will come up.

Watch reruns until you find a similar show to watch. It may end up becoming your new favorite!

If you look the show up on IMDB, on the column to the right of the show's details you'll often find user lists on which the show appears. This can be a good way to find similar programs you might enjoy. You can also check out the site tastedive.com, in which you type in a show and it produces a list of recommendations.

Try to write some fanfic about what you think would happen. If the show is popular, there are probably already theory sites and stories that you could find by searching online.

Keep rewatching episodes from the other seasons that came before it and predict what's going to happen next! Maybe look at the wikia for your show to see when the episodes are going to come out. Sometimes there is a bit of information about each episode before they come out. Watch films and write fanfics about stuff you would like to happen later on in a show. Keep track of the creator's twitter or any other social networks and you may get clues about what's going to happen next!

Try to get more friends to watch together! You can also try finding fandoms online. Search "Friends" related keywords on tumblr.com or Google "'Friends' fan fiction" to find other fans.

Find another hobby. Go outside, make friends, read a book or learn something new.

Make your own endings as fan fiction and post them online. I bet other people have done the same. Look around on Tumblr and FanFiction.net for examples.

You could rewatch the whole series from the beginning, or watch your favorite episodes. You might see things you missed the first time. You could also see what the actors are doing other than acting on your favorite show. Some actors have other shows you might like, or they make appearances at conventions, which you can watch recordings of. You could also read (or write your own) fan fiction stories about the show.

Look for shows in the same genre. It'll take you a while to get over the empty feeling of leaving the previous show behind, but finding a show that's like the show that ended in some aspects should help. Whether it's drama, comedy, horror, or even a type of anime that you like, just look for shows that fall under the category of the one you watched before.

Of course! This article works for any show that is cancelled (or disappointing to you for any other reason).

Shows rarely kill off major characters. They do, however, often end seasons on just such a dramatic cliffhanger to keep watchers talking about the show during its hiatus, maintaining interest and momentum. Think of all the possibilities you can as to how the character might escape death, who might come to the person's aid in time, etc.

You don't have to share your love for a show with other people. You may express it in private by creating art or writing fanfiction.

There are articles here on this topic. See How to Deal with Depression .

When a character dies, they're not lost forever. Some shows, like Lost and Supernatural, had characters so popular that the creators brought them back. You might also find that new or future characters are even more enjoyable than the character you originally loved, and it would be a shame to miss out on those characters.

RWBY (red white black yellow)is great if you're looking for something family friendly. You can also try Fruits Basket. Rosario + Vampire is super funny but not appropriate for all ages.

Yes. If you're game a has a storyline or plot, it might work.

Take a Buzzfeed quiz on what shows to watch based on your preferences. Ask for recommendations from people in social media forums devoted to shows that you enjoy. Use your own Netflix profile, and check out their recommendations based on shows you watch. Or simply type into Google: "shows to watch if I like ", you'll get plenty of results.

The best are Suite Life of Zack and Cody, Liv and Maddie, Hannah Montana, and Jessie. You could watch the movie Camp Rock with Sonny starring it.

You could send an email or a letter to the production studios. Maybe ask your parents/guardians/friends to help you.

It's not clear what you mean. You can't stop the remaining episodes from being created or released, if that's what you mean. You're free not to watch them. If you're using a service like Netflix or Hulu, you can always cancel it, but you won't get a refund for the current month, your subscription will just be canceled at the end of the current pay period.

Email them and tell them why you feel how you do and why it would be a good reason to bring a show back. Understand that it may not have been the show writer's decision to end the show.

KC Undercover is similar in some ways, but none can beat Kim and Ron's quirky love life!

I like Star vs. the Forces of Evil. Give it a try. The first season is okay, but the second and third ones are amazing, and season 4 is coming soon. I also really liked Gravity Falls!

There's always a chance for a re-boot, but it would probably be a long time coming.

Fan fiction of course! Giving your TV show a rewrite of your own ending keeps you satisfied and provides proper closure. (You can also look up other people's fan fiction.)

Try giving yourself some time about it, do your favorite hobbies, or also watch some of your other favorite shows to help.
