I generally don't get sad that a show ends, because everything good has to end for it to stay good. My impression of an anime comes from the entire experience, beginning to end, and without an end, it feels incomplete (not to mention that if a show goes on beyond what its story allows, it quickly becomes tiring and filler-y). I'm often rather wary of multiple seasons as a result, especially of the series I liked, because too often, it's a result of the producers wanting to continue milking a franchise without any good content to go on. It's kind of like awesome cake - if there's one serving of it, you finish it, and you can remember how good it was. But if it's endless, you get sick of it, puke it up later, and vow never to eat cake again. On the other hand, there are series I thought was too short (bite-size cake sucks too).
Better to fondly remember a show wishing it was longer than bitterly remembering it going downhill after episode 60.
