“Can’t wait for you to see the grand finale,” he said.

In her own post, Moriarty shared a carousel of images, including one of her tearful self donning a T-shirt with the text “The Boys Crew.”
“Honestly, f*** ‘don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened,'” she wrote. “the tears have begun. the posts are incoming. I said goodbye to most of my work family today and I’ll be ready to smile about it when I’m ready to smile about it. to my Boys fam: love you, c****. forever.”
Quaid shared the “family” sentiment over on his Instagram, writing in a post, “This show, this incredible cast and crew are my family. I love them with all my heart.”
