Well, maybe in-character at some point in the series.

I want to say, like, for seasons 1-3, it would have been plausible. But I think the problem was that they planned the finale early in the show and then, even though the characters had grown and changed, they really wanted to stick to their original plan (though I cannot for the life of me figure out why - I mean, it's got to be something other than sheer stubbornness, right?).

Oh, totally. The basics were written back when it was in character, only the character developed past that. I think most authors understand that sometimes you need to change plans.

From what I've heard (I've never watched the show, but I've picked up some gossip about it), they filmed the future-time shots back during season 1, so that the kids in them wouldn't look years older when they actually got around to the final season. Which locked them in to the ending those scenes implied, even though the story grew and changed in the telling.

Maybe they could have dumped those scenes, or tried to recontextualize them, but it would have ended up kind of clunky, changing the whole framing story like that.
