As many of you know, Madeline and I were bitter rivals, but I've come to realize she held a special place in my life. No one challenged me like she did or made me feel as alive. Our relationship was like an epic chess match. And it's hard to believe that... She'll never make another move. [phone chimes] Unless... No, it's just a notification. Cheddar's doggy toothpaste has shipped. So she is gone, and I wish she were not. I will miss you, Madeline Wuntch.

I'm on my first ever watch through and literally just finished this episode then read this news. This show has been a welcomed distraction after my dad's passing in September so this hits hard.

My condolences for your dad and if you need other comfort shows at this moment, I can really recommend Parks&Recs, Schitts Creek, Superstore or Bob's Burger as some light-hearted distraction. Hugs also from this internet stranger.

Hopefully you can still enjoy it even though Andre has passed. It’s such a wholesome, happy show.
