We need another season. I did not like the ending leaving us to wonder what happen. I love the show and what it represents. So bring on more.

Yes some kind of spin off would be ok. they could call military wives or something because now they r merging with the air force. so they could come up with a name that incorporates both army and air force.

Give us MORE!!!! I adore this show! I've watched from the beginning & in no way think last night's episode was a good series finale. Catherine Bell tweeted last wk when asked about "the end of Army Wives" that "we haven't been cancelled and while we haven't been picked up yet either, it looks good for another season of Army Wives". This show is one of the few on TV that actually evokes emotion from me on a weekly basis...that's one of the reasons I love it so much! Keep AW going Lifetime!

EXCLUSIVE: Army Wives star Catherine Bell has signed a new two-year deal with ABC Studios, which produces the veteran Lifetime drama series. The deal is qualified as a talent holding one as Army Wives has not been officially renewed beyond the current supersized sixth season. It would cover Bell’s services on the show for two more seasons, and I hear it includes a big salary bump from the actress’ current paycheck, which is in the high five figures per episode. While yet to pull the trigger on a Season 7, Lifetime has been actively exploring its options, including applying for the California TV tax credit lottery, which will be held Friday. I hear keeping the show in South Carolina for one more season and moving production to Los Angeles for two more seasons are among the discussed scenarios. None of the original cast members of Army Wives have deals beyond Season 6, and locking in Bell is a major step towards a potential renewal.

There has to be another season. Last nights ending left us hanging on what happened to the plane. I say we all need another season. I was upset to hear it was ending. I have watched it from the beginning and also have seasons 1-5 on dvd. PLEASE give us another season.

I have watched this show from the start. I love the characters and what they all believe in. My sister would call me during commercials and we would try to guess what was going to happen or we would be crying about something sad that happen. The finale brought tears to my eyes last night because you see I lost my sister 4 months ago and I wanted to call her so many times . While the characters were all saying goodbyes to their loved ones, I did as well.

This is no way to end a wonderful show. I have watched from the beginning and I can't believe they did this to devoted fans. What a slap in the face. I wish now that I hadn't wasted any of my time if this is how they treat us. Shame on you lifetime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There just has to be another season. I have watched this show from the beginning and just can't end with last night's show. That was worse than the ending of Soprano's series. I have to know what happens to all of these characters. I love them all.

OMG. I love Army Wives. I do so hope it is not ending. I know nothing last for ever, But this is such a good show.If the show has such good ratings why not bring it back. I so love the cast old and new ones.It just can not end this way!!!!!!!!!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed the show last night, even if Claudia Joy was still missing in action. The ending left a lot to be desired -- the assumption of a plane crash...no survivors...or...did some survive?
Maybe they'll start another Army Wives...perhaps "Army Life?" This title could go with the Lifetime theme...my life...my time...and it would certainly eliminate one of those idiotic, bitchy acting reality shows Lifetime is quickly spinning towards!

They better come back with a new season. That is no way to leave us hanging. I really hope they come back with the show and If they do then hopefully they wont kill off a character that is dearly loved by the fans. Army Wives is my absolute 100% favorite show and being an army wife myself it has given me guidance and real meaning behind the military and true friendship at the same time.

I have watched the show since the beginning of the series I hope the show doesn't end with a plane crash

I was disappointed in the ending too. I thought it was the all time finale of the actual show. Maybe it is but I hate the way it leaves you hanging. I would be all for a spin off or even a Lifetime Army Wives final movie. Anything to clear up the confusion. I am a former Air Force wife and it's not that hard to figure out where your former friends are and what they are doing now. So I want to know what has happened to the friends I have gotten to know over the past 6 seasons on Army Wives too. Only this time I have to wait for it to come from a writers pen and a producers okay. So please bring it back to us in some form.
Thank you.

I surely hope that this is not the way that this series will end. I cannot imagine a worse way to end a show that gave so many people so much hope.
Granted, when the show started, the writing was MUCH better...however, as another person commented previously, how many people do you know who face life-threatening, life-changing events so frequently and within such a small group of friends?
To me, although it seemed that the writing had gone downhill significantly over the past four seasons, the Season 6 Finale was much better written, with more emotion portraying what happens when families PCS, and especially what happens when families face deployment of their loved ones. The writing was much better--UNTIL the last two minutes. Come on, now...really?

After watching this with my wife I have one question......what is the name/artist of the song at the end of the episode?

I thought this was the final episode of the last season of the series. I do not like the ending. The plane leaving with the brigade with no catastrophe is routine. So are families leaving on PCS. The ending was not an ending.. Too many possibilities exist from the plane: crash on land or at sea; Claudia Joy dead; accident of car driven by Trevar: among others. I hope they continue the show even if new cast members are nec

As a 58-year-old former army brat, with my father deploying twice to Viet Nam and our family moving over a dozen times, Army Wives revealed the gut-wrenching realities of military life, the humor, the bonding, the pain . . .
What a superb cast - please bring them ALL back next season.

Okay so I'm so sad on the ending and mind u i do mean season ending, did everyone hear the song they were playing at the end...something about not the end...so i do think that army wives will return....well it better!! Love the show! Love the cast!! I do agree though that this episode was better then most of the ones we have seen this season and they left us wanting oh so much more....and to end bring back claudia joy!!!

I hate to see this show come to an end. Especially like this, thinking that the plane with all those people went down. Come on give us more even if it is a spin off. More More More

I too have watched Army wives from the beginning. It's a good cliff hanger, but my best guess is that they aren't going to end it with 3-4 main characters dying in a plane crash. My best guess is that Claudia Joy is dead. She's been gone for half the season any way, so it makes since. Curious as to what they do with Roxie and Trevor though??? Hmmm!

I have watched Army wives from the beginning and I reserve Sunday nights as my night. It was really the type that you sit on the edge of your seat knowing it is the season finale on what is happening. The General's "Oh my god" could be anything but the something happening to the troops plane. I love all the characters and hope there is a spin-off on the Leblancs. Can't wait for the new season.

I really hope it isn't the end of Army Wives. Just a thougth on the ending. Everyone assumes its a plane crash but what if Trevor and Roxy were in a car accident on the way to the new base. Hopefully we get answers next season. God bless all that serve our country!

more Army Wives, please! I too disliked that ending. They can't leave us hanging like that. I'm thinking there will have to be a season 7 after that.

We all understand that change is a fact of life. Although Army Wives had a "soap opera" format; still I had hoped that the last episode would not be a cliche. Come on -- "Oh my God", several times...did the plane go down or not? And really, Michael would not do "Oh my God"; he's way more stoic than that...he would be more likely to say: "What happened?" and then "Understood. We'll work out the communication plan." Let's hope they don't keep us hanging, but really, unless the "answer" is already in the can, we are sol for the answer.
