Lindenstrasse (ARD): Emotional words from the fans never stop - but there are other voices
But among the many voices that express their grief, you can read a few that are completely different from the cult series: “It makes it easier for misery - this eternal instructional program for adults - to finally end - and then another threat: 'goodbye'? 'Goodbye, please,' says a non-fan of the show.
You are relieved that misery - this eternal instructional program for adults - has finally come to an end - and then another threat: "Goodbye"? "Goodbye", please. # Lindenstrasse

This shows how strong the connection of some fans with the series has to be. Many are very indignant about the statement and sometimes counter with harsh comments. "Take your pills and let yourself be instructed right away," says a follower in an objective tone. Some people wonder why the follower watched the show if she didn't like it so much. But she also finds approval: “You speak to me from the soul. This series is pretty much the most terrible thing public television has ever produced. I don't want to have to see bad actors with bad scripts anymore. Goodbye forever. Exactly."
Despite these statements, the voices that regret the end of the show seem to still be in the majority. For many, it was a real constant for over 30 years, in whose stories about the residents of Lindenstrasse you could immerse yourself every Sunday evening.
Creepy sentence in the last episode of Lindenstrasse causes surprise
Update March 30, 2020: Even the corona virus was part of the last episode of Lindenstrasse - even though the episode was shot in December! In a scene with Klaus Beimer, one hears the news on the radio: "The corona wave is spreading further in Bavaria." That would indeed be strange if the Lindenstrasse producers were able to foresee the development months ago.
In fact, of course, it is different: Lindenstrasse has always been known for flexibly incorporating current topics into the program. For example, different versions were filmed for election evenings - depending on the outcome. Here, of course, the "trick" was much easier: you only hear a radio voice in the background that speaks about the corona virus. It was easy to integrate into the episode. The actors themselves don't talk about the corona virus. And there are also no exit restrictions in Lindenstrasse - all neighbors end up celebrating Helga Beimer's 80th birthday together in the Akropolis restaurant. Unimaginable these days!
Radio: "The corona virus continues to spread in Bavaria."
The last # Lindenstrasse episode was shot in November. WHAT DOES MOTHER HAVE TO DO WITH IT ?!

There are many similar voices on the series' Facebook page. “Part of my childhood and adolescence died. So it's a pity, ”it says.
How teasing the TV farewell was for fans of the series is made clear in this tweet: “My father is watching the last episode of Lindenstrasse. I dared to say a word. He: 'I've been watching this for 35 years! It is very emotional! Please don't speak in! ' I have never actually seen him so emotionally ”.
My father is watching the last episode # Lindenstrasse. I dared to say a word. He: I've been watching this for 35 years! It is very emotional! Please don't speak in!
I've never actually seen him so emotionally
A fan on Facebook writes: “In the credits, I got up and clapped. Thank you, I will all miss you so much! ”Another thanks for“ countless moments full of happiness, love, hate, grief, fear, anger, pity, envy, passion, jealousy, humor, irony and adhering to old traditions. “The series was“ German cultural property ”. Some people also blame the ARD: "ARD was a mistake!" Says a Facebook comment. But most of them are just sad and melancholy.

The tears came to some viewers - also in view of the many conciliatory details of the happy ending in the last minutes of the "Lindenstrasse". A viewer wrote on Twitter: “I actually cried in the end. But hey, Vasily has become a fact grandpa. Wow! And Martin Mürfel showed up again, hah yes. And thank God Anna doesn't have to go to jail. Now we can all turn on our head cinema and continue dreaming. "
