It sadly missed its chance to go out on a high note a few years ago, and it's sort of become a satire of the show it used to be.
We all knew the origin concept was too good to last, but it's tough to watch now.
I kind of want them to end it with Old Man Adam sitting in a nursing home in front of a TV that just plays nonstop '80s reruns and have it be he just made everything up to explain why it got more crackpot over time.

What was the original premise?

It was inspired by (about) Adam F. Goldberg's actual family/school history and his interest in film making.
There would often be footage from his childhood shown at the end that was referred to in the previous episode or a short interview with the family member/ gym teacher/friend from Adam's life.
*Erica replaced Adam's irl brother Eric- before someone corrects my assessment... 😂

How about end it but Beverly ends up on “The Conners”, which has no upper limit on cast members and no ties to realism either.

They actually did boot DJ from the cast this year for whatever reason (he barely showed up as it was).

Did he want to be in the show? I thought he was retired from acting and he just showed up a bit as a favour to the rest of the cast.

He's been a "guest star" or "also starring" since the reboot, but he has still been afforded a contract with each season. He said that he wasn't asked to return this season and no explanation was given to him or to anyone else.
