5 out of 5 stars A great ending to a great series!   April 11, 2007

Words fail me in trying to express how wonderful I think this series is -- And this series finale episode is probably one of the best episodes of the series ... If you're an Avonlea fan, like so many of us are, this is a must-see! Seeing how Gus is found again and how wonderful everything turns out certainly brings a great ending to a great series ....


5 out of 5 stars Road to Avonlea's Grand Finale   January 30, 2005

This is a must-have for anyone who's watched "Road to Avonlea". It is the culmination of seven years in episodes of a television series like no other I've ever seen. The acting skills of the cast are unsurpassed, and these particular two closing episodes punctuate the quality that this series possesses.

For years, viewers have been watching the young couple, Felicity and Gus, overcome any challenge to be together. Now that it seems that Gus is lost at sea, and Felicity is engaged to Stuart, it's up to the 'fates' to see the couple joined at last. We are not disappointed. Just days before Felicity's wedding, she receives a phone call from Charleston, South Carolina indicating that there's 'someone' needing her, a patient who's been recovering in a local hospital. Felicity senses that it is Gus, and with nothing to go on but her faith that Gus must be alive, she travels there with Hetty to find him. Gus doesn't want to face Felicity or what has happened to him. However, Felicity refuses to return home without him. At this point, Aunt Hetty steps in and in an incredibly moving scene, (my personal favorite of all the scenes in RTA with Hetty and Gus), challenges Gus to find his courage and take back his indominitable spirit. Gus Pike cannot resist the longing to be home where his family and his love draw him.

We are just as satisfied to see Gus and Felicity married, and despite Gus being blind, we know he 'sees' as much as we do, with his heart. Aunt Hetty expresses all of our feelings in her final toast at the wedding when she emotionally seals the appeal of Avonlea, our magical home for seven years. This series is better in my opinion than any I've seen in the US, and will continue to garner fans far and wide who are introduced to the village of Avonlea and all of the timeless characters.



5 out of 5 stars Another Great Classic From Canada   October 22, 2004

As a fan of the "Anne of Green Gables" series I immediately fell in love with the "Road to Avonlea" characters. In this film which marks the end of the series Felicity must choose between her first and true love Gus Pike or her present fiancee Stuart McCrea. Believing Gus to be dead Felicity accepts Stuart's proposal and prepares to marry him until a mysterious phone call takes her to Charleston SC where she finds Gus alive but not the same as he was before. Through determination and alot of patience she persuades him to go back to Avonlea with her and Aunt Hetty. I will only say that the ending was perfect. I wish the Disney channel or ABC Family would re-run this series instead of Smallville and Gilmore Girl repeats. There are just not enough historically themed shows on television anymore so it is no wonder that today's children care nothing for the past.

Road to Avonlea~Return to Me, features two episodes from the poplular Disney series Avonlea. Return to Me features two episodes, So Dear to My Heart and Return to Me. Two of the last episodes of Avonlea. In these last two episodes Felicity is engaged to be married to a man named Stuart, when she learns that the love of her life, Gus Pike, is alive. She travels to South Carolina to find him. She then convinces Gus to return to Avonlea with her. A grand wedding takes place in which many characters return to the show. Sara Polley redeams her role as Sara Stanley after a couple years of absence from the show. As well as characters such as Racheal Lynde, Davy and Dora, and Ms Stacy from the Anne of Green Gables Series. This episode is a much have for any fan of the TV show Avonlea or Anne of Green Gables!
