The Final Ever Scene - Peep Show 

No resolution, no satisfaction, zero personal growth in the entire nine years, just like real life :)

"Laters" - and there goes the greatest side character in TV history

i used to watch this show so much that i would think in mark's voice. lmao

I like to think that after leaving the flat, Super Hans immediately got in his van and drove straight to Macedonia in one go.

Absolutely zero character development hahahaha, nothing changes from the first season, very good, love this show

A dull, anticlimactic ending. But an ending that was just perfect for the tone of Peep Show. Going out with a big bang would have been untrue to the nature of the show, and it shouldn't have ended any other way really.

I think it's very fitting that the last shot of the show wasn't from either of their point-of-view, rather a shot of both of them sitting together, from the audiences point-of-view, as if we are no longer 'inside' them, so to speak.

It was always gonna be them together in the end. Not a couple, but bound together by the fact that no one else can stand them. It's beautiful in a sad depressing sort of way.

This is one of the only comedies that stays just as funny when you watch it again and again

the show started at a random point in the characters lives and ended at a random point. the main characters didn't change or develop one bit over the whole time and ended up in the same position they started in. the show did not feature any glamour or cheesy heartwarming scenes whatsoever. yet it was one of the most memorable shows ever to air.

I fucking love how Hans’ last ever line is just “Yee. Laters.”

Peep show never needed a 'stand out' or 'brilliant' episode, it was so consistently funny, its average was so high ALL of the time.

"oh god.. i'm so tired..." Honestly the saddest line in the show, this is not the jeremy that started the show but as far as his accomplishments go - he's exactly the same

People say that "oh it's just like real life, zero character development" I think that mark and jez had plenty of opportunities to develop as people. But mark feared change and jez lacked the guidence. So whilst this show isn't about character development, it teaches the danger of character stagnation. Mark and jez will spiral ever downwards in self loathing and pity. Because they refuse anything else.

I think the ending simply means that it's going to be the same thing for another few years. In a way, it ended the way it started. Two of them in a flat with a love/hate friendship. I'm guessing Super Hans returned sooner or later as well after his failed moped rental idea.

such a depressing show hahahaha, the way it just ends with them on the couch the same way it started, only 10 years later, brilliant

'We love eachother really' .... 'I simply must get rid of him'

I believe that, as of 2022, Jez and Mark are still living together in comfortable misery.

If this was written like an American sitcom, that "outrageous, contagious" song would have been randomly discovered in China and become an enormous hit there making Hans and Jeremy rich. He'd have given Mark a load of money so that he could go back to Uni and study Classical history, and the series would have ended at Mark and April's wedding where surprise guest Nancy would have rekindled her relationship with Jez.

..Heartbroken that the show has ended. This show got me through my 20s.

I watched this show on netflix from may-june. Man, I was almost certain I wasn't going to find a british sitcom better then inbetweeners, but I then I found these guys.

Possibly the worst, yet most fitting ending to a show.

the final shot is actually the t.v watching them

I know everyone is talking about Mitchell and Webb ageing, but can we just acknowledge that Super Hans has not aged a single day 😂

Best friends ever. I'm gonna miss the El Dude Brothers so badly.

The final scene made me sad because it was finally over :( "We do love eachother really"

They both finished way they started single sat in the flat

I love the nod to the ending of Withinail & I with the wolves on the TV.

Somehow mark managed to look the same age throughout the entire show

Cant believe its over. Thank you for such a great series! :-)

Weirdly enough this is exactly how succession ended

It's quit sad that the show ended with both Mark and Jeremy on a life-time low, but in many ways it's real life.

I'm obsessed with Peep Show. And I always wondered why? Then I realised it gave me the revelation that my life was a comedy not a drama. Pretty relieving stuff.

i love how it ends just how it all began. "are we gonna be alright?"

"he's not a great man, he's not a wise man, he's not always.. a good man" lmfao

Jeremy’s face when Mark is giving his speech is such a subtly desperate portrait of mortified realisation and existential panic that underneath the comedy it’s actually heartbreaking. He knows he’s hit 40 having achieved nothing, not even the respect of his closest friend, and worst of all that *things will never change*. Peep Show walks the tightrope between hilarity and the true horror of being alive like no other show.

Damn. What an original and unique way to end a show. Life goes on - deal with it. No typical "happy ever after" or other bullshit. It's great on so many levels.

In the first time in Peep Show history, there is a shot that is not from another human beings point of view. The very last shot is from the TV's point of view, in other words we are the audience watching TV and looking at them through the TV. What an awesome ending 🥳

I wonder if Super Hans made it to Macedonia?

It ends as it began, two people so worried about missing out that they miss out on everything, life is leaving them behind while everyone else moves on. To insecure to make any sort of decision or commitment, self sabotaging because the truth is the don’t want to or can’t leave each other.

A bonus episode with them going on holiday to visit Hans in Macedonia would be legendary

I get this show has a massive cult following but on the whole it didn't make a huge impact and I don't get why. I can't think of a show I've wanted to watch for 9 series. And this one stayed gold the entire time.

This hurts me so much. They will return, they have to.

The starkest reality: 9 years have passed and they just end right back at square one. All they have to show for it is 9 fewer years left in their life.

one of the best shows ever with one of the best endings ever

I love Mark's raised brows in regards to Super Hans at about 3:02.

Haha I am a Englishman living in Australia, I tell Aussies to watch this show all the time! One of the true brilliant English comedies!

"Totally meaningless, I'm gonna get rumbled." "That is so sweet. That might be the nicest thing he's ever said." "Ah, we do love each other, really." "I simply must get rid of him." Series ends with Mark burying Jez off-screen after killing him with a pillow on the face.

Is that final shot the only one in the entire show filmed at an angle not from a character? Even 3rd person shots beforehand are implied to be a bystander, but this one is just jarring. Fitting though.

I've watched every episode at least 4 times, not kidding. I need a season 10 very badly, i think im going mad.

This show gives me some overwhelming nostalgia man. 😩 Everything about it, like a window taking me back to some of the best years of my life!

I’m sure we all had a friend who just left our lives with a “laters” like Super Hans with their mad schemes.

I'd watch a "Hans' Rentals" spin off set in Macedonia.

7 years later I'd bet they're still in the same chairs in the same flat

I love how none of the characters wind up having any legal repercussions for kidnapping and threatening a man.

this makes me so depressed and I don't even understand why

I always think it's so strange to see comments by people saying that Peep Show went on for too long. While 9 series can seem like a big, intimidating number, in reality due to British Sitcom series being so short, there were only 54 x 25 minute episodes that covered over a decade of the characters lives, in a sitcom that experimented with series long arcs, changing character dynamics and a transient cast of secondary and tertiary characters and was far more developed than the standard sitcom. The way some people speak about it is as if they were trying to squeeze every drop out of it and pushing their luck after series 5, and were running out of ideas in series 8 and 9 but that's just not true in my book. Honestly? I think the whole run is fantastic and it's a shame they're not still doing the show now. There's easily more content to be had from Peep Show's setting and characters. I've always thought that this unspoken rule in British sitcoms, the "Fawlty Towers" superstition, of doing 2 or 3 series maximum and then ducking out when you only have 12 or 18 episodes to your name has always been stupid, and I'm glad that the creators of Peep Show saw they had a good thing and stuck with it. 54 episodes is nothing.

I'm actually quite glad that they went back to exactly where they were at the start. It actually fits quite nicely

Was flicking through an old magazine from two years ago, saw the final advertisement for the peep show "one last peep" :'( truly one of the greatest shows ever

Wasn't keeping track of the eps when I first watched it and actually had a breakdown when I realised there were no more episodes after this... as a result it can never be a satisfying ending, I always associate it with the shell shock of the first time. It's just so sad.

Omg how much do I miss this brilliant comedy show!!

Not the funniest scene in the world, but very poignant. Middle finger to all the happy ending American sitcoms!

A big hole in my life now I've watched all episodes....some of the funniest shit I've ever witnessed.

I've watched all the seasons so many times and I do it again! Today I watch this last one and I felt sad again!

Peep Show predicting Monkeypox..

I want more peep show. 😨😪😪

The moment that drum role sounded I was so sad

Monumental writing and character regression, untouched from inception to conclusion. Perfect.

I love this. Ugly, vitriolic, devoid of any sengiment or meaning whatsoever. The show never abandoned it's post in it's 9 seasons.

i'm so happy that i forget all the awesome parts, since i watch the show high. so i can watch it again and again xD

Love this show.

I like how they got to say good bye and acknowledge each other with the birthday speeches.

And final imagery of wolves and winter, roll credits. Sad and chilling...

Just finished rewatching in lockdown. The last scene is a homage to Withnail & I with the wolves?

a very fitting end to an outstanding comedy

best comedy show ever

The way super hans walks around the corner always makes me laugh

1:14 brilliant how as he dips back in to jeremys speech he's calling him a boring bastard 🤣. So many great details in this show

Absolutely amazing TV! Please do one more season

Super Hans is the best friend anyone could ever wish for.

Glad they put Hands in the final scene. By far my favourite character.

Best comedy ever , please get another series on the go

I miss this show alot

saw some clips on RU-vid of this show like last week and found it so funny just finished it today

Gutted it's over. Simply genius beginning to end

Wish I had a Jeremy in my life.

Omg we need the Super Hans spin off him and his Moped Business abroad 😂

I like how there’s a bunch of random people we’ve never seen before in this scene

Vanning it to macedonia and finally setting up the moped rental is what every british man dreams of

I miss those two together...Not just Peep Show.... just brilliant writers and performers. Peep Show was a masterpiece and everyone in it gave everything.

Nearly as good as "Over the years, I've come to regard you as people..... I.... met"

One of the best british sitcoms ever made

I love, love, love, love, love this show

Love how that last shot is us watching them from our perspective if we were the tv.

"Totally meaningless, I'm gonna get rumbled" I love this line

We never got to meet "Pedge"

I had no idea this was the last episode when I watched it, concluding a month long binge of the show. I was so confused when the next episode didn’t autoplay lol

great end to a great show. so long the el dude brothers. you will not grow old as we who are left grow old, etc.

I’m rewatching the series again now. I guess my 6th time. lol. I still find myself cracking up in the middle of night watching it! A lot of people just don’t get the show. I suppose it’s because it’s about 2 losers who never grow or prosper in any way at all. But that’s the beauty of the show. No teary eyed episodes. No sweeping emotional music to tug at your heartstrings. Nope there shall be none of that. Just characters being ground down to the emptiness of their lives. Absolutely brilliant!

Damn i miss this show.
