If a 30 y/o woman cried when her favorite TV show was canceled (was only on for 2-3 years; wasn’t groundbreaking), does she need to grow up?
She cried in the sense that the network didn’t give it a chance, so it wasn’t that her tears were from the fact that she watched a show she loved that was on the air for 10 years.
Also, she cried when her favorite model on “America’s Next Top Model” didn’t win & was voted off.
Is it ridiculous for a 30-something-year-old woman to cry over something like that?

Instead of assuming she "needs to grow up", why not instead find out why she's so sensitive over those things? It's likely she's feeling a lack elsewhere in her life, and that's manifesting in her reaction to these shows. For example, if there are issues with her own relationships with people, she might feel a need to "connect" to people on the shows, or see something there that she's missing in her own life. Perhaps offer some emotional support, so she doesn't feel that way, and you might see a difference.

Everyone needs to grow up, not everyone has to agree with you and not everything is going to go your way.

No, people get emotional attachments to television show. It becomes comforting and familiar.

Many people get emotional over things they have no control over. Some people extend even that way too far.
