The sixth and final season of Schitt’s Creek aired in the spring of 2020, leaving fans saddened by the departure of the beloved Rose family from their screens. To give this iconic family a fitting send-off, the series concluded with the highly anticipated wedding of David Rose and his partner Patrick Brewer.
The finale is packed with Easter eggs, offering fans a nostalgic and emotional farewell with nods to previous episodes and running jokes. After David and Patrick’s original wedding venue is rained out, Patrick arranges a full-body massage for David while he searches for a new location. During the massage, David receives an unexpected “happy ending,” which he mistakenly believes Patrick arranged. However, Patrick clarifies that the masseuse acted on his own initiative. This moment echoes the playful and carefree nature of earlier episodes, particularly David and Stevie’s encounters with Jake, who dated them both simultaneously.
Alexis wears a flowing white gown to her brother’s wedding, complete with a veil, only to realize too late that it resembles a wedding dress—making her look like the bride and David like the groom. This mix-up is a nod to a season one incident where locals mistook Alexis and David for a couple rather than siblings, and it also highlights Alexis’s tendency to make everything about herself.
Moira’s final look in the series took some time to perfect, and she’s one of the few sitcom characters who could pull off wearing a pope’s outfit to a wedding. Her large mitre is complemented by long, blonde hair inspired by Botticelli’s Renaissance painting The Birth of Venus.
In season four, Patrick serenades David with Tina Turner’s “Simply the Best” during an Open Mic Night at Rose Apothecary, a moment that fans adored. David later lip-syncs the song for Patrick in another episode. In the finale, as David walks down the aisle, the Jazzagals perform “Simply the Best,” bringing the couple’s musical and romantic journey full circle. It’s a heartwarming conclusion to their story.
