We were on-set, it was very much in the middle of the pandemic, and we knew we were going to have a limited number of people for the wedding. TVLINE | Talk about the decision to have empty guest chairs laid out with the names of those who are no longer with us or didn’t make it to the wedding. It was all about finding everyone a moment of potential joy, after they’ve gone through so much after four seasons. Even Jeremy (Varun Saranga) becoming deputy chief of Black Badge and maybe finding a new date…. More than anything, it was about giving every character a moment of happiness. And now you have Waverly secure enough in how their relationship has evolved, that she knows Wynonna deserves to leave again - because she’ll come back. I really love the parallel with the pilot, where Wynonna came into town against her will and was so hungry to leave but was forced to stay. I think it’s important to pay due respect to how far Waverly and Doc have come she never gave up on him, she always saw a better man in him - and now he gets to be the best man! Nedley (Greg Lawson) and Nicole’s (Kat Barrell) relationship, that paternal/daughter bond is so special, so honoring that was very important.Īnd at the end of the day, I still think the real love affair of the show is the Earp sisters, so I ended to make sure that that was honored. It has to honor to all of the characters - and by that, I mean it has to try to find a moment for every special pairing on the show, not just WayHaught. TVLINE | When throwing a season-ending wedding, what is Emily Andras’ marching order? “Above all else, this wedding has to be…”?

I’m sure there will be lots of crazy sex and crazy arguments and crazy laughter.

I feel like having the world ahead of them and being such an unusual couple, I would love to see what happens next for them.
That’s so lovely, thank you for saying that. TVLINE | I’m watching that final sequence and it almost feels alien, seeing the two of them head off into what I think of as “the real world.” But I also found that viscerally exciting, to see so much ahead for them. I never knew that I would be allowed to end such a romantic pairing with the woman driving the motorcycle and the guy on the back. But those two characters have certainly earned the chance to try to be happy, whatever that means to them. TVLINE | At what point over the years did you ever envision Wynonna and Doc riding off into the sunset?Īhhh! I almost never even let myself envision it, you know? It’s so funny - when you start doing a show, you have all sorts of ideas about what pairings are going to rise to the top, who’s going to end up with whom, and one of the joys of Earp is that so many different things have happened. I feel like joy has to be paired with nostalgia, so I hope they’re feeling all the things. Just head-to-toe body warmth, and love, and affection, and wistfulness…. What emotions do you hope the fans are feeling at this moment?

TVLine spoke with series creator Emily Andras about crafting this very fine finale, at least one “happy accident” that wound up stirring many emotions, and more.
