Dan Levy shares emotional farewell note to 'Schitt's Creek': 'This show has been the love of my life for the past seven years'

The cast of "Schitt's Creek" said goodbye after six seasons in the series finale Tuesday night.

Dan Levy, who played the inimitable David Rose since the show's premiere in 2015, reflected on the show's end in an emotional post.

Sharing a touching photo of himself with Annie Murphy (Alexis Rose) on their last day on set in the Rosebud Motel, Levy wrote, "Tears are a good thing. It means you care."

He described the show, which he not only starred in but also executive produced with his father Eugene Levy (Johnny Rose), as, "the love of my life for the past seven years."

"Getting to tell these stories, build these characters, and watch them grow has been a privilege for which I will always be grateful," he wrote. "Working with this brilliant cast and crew and basking in the glow of their extraordinary talent for six amazing seasons are what I’m going to miss the most."

He added that the cast and crew, "built a family on those sets" and, "time won’t ever change that."

Levy also shared a message for the show's loyal fan base, thanking them for "taking the time out of your busy lives to watch our show."

"Getting to share this show with you, getting to watch you champion it, tell your friends about it, herald its messages of love and acceptance and decency with such empathy and passion...that is something I will never forget," he wrote.

"You’ve taught me that television has the power to not only bring people together in profound and inspiring ways, but also the power to change conversations and consequently, change lives," he added. "I know that you all have certainly changed mine."

The actor also shared a screenshot of his mother Deborah Divine's congratulatory message to him about breaking barriers.

Levy opened up to GLAAD’s Anthony Ramos about how he is extremely proud of the impact the show has made for the LGBTQ community.

His character David's openness and confidence in his identity, as well as his relationship with Patrick, played by actor Noah Reid, were focal points in the acclaimed series.

"It is the greatest takeaway I could have ever imagined from this show," Levy told GLAAD, on the show's work in increasing representation.

"I just think back to times in my life when I was still in the closet and really struggling, and thinking if I was going to be able to live an open and authentic life myself," he continued. "It is such a stark discrepancy between who I was as a teenager and who I am now. I am really proud of the work that we did, and I am humbled by the change that we seem to have affected in people’s lives and people’s homes."
