“I really hope that people will feel like these characters are still out there in the world doing what they do, caring for people, pushing themselves to do better, trying to help other people feel better,” co-showrunner Liz Friedman told Parade of the finale. “That’s the way it’s going to be in my heart forever, is that Shaun is out there doing the best he can in his own wonderful, hilarious, Shaun Murphy way. It’s all still happening, we just don’t get to see it every week.”
