      There would have been no reason to call a Coroner out to an industrial accident, as there were no fatalities.

    Backdoor Pilot, Fans of Quincy Take It In The Backdoor

    I just watched this episode and I can't believe that this was the actual series finale. They couldn't do a proper episode where the characters say goodbye? Instead, Quincy appears on the scene, not even a coroner case, then just fades away as the episode goes on? Fans deserved better. Adding insult to injury, the series wasn't even picked up.
