Some of ‘em work better than others.
Here are 26 that moved us!
As far as they knew they were on a five year mission.
Rodenberry probably saw it as a five season arc.
The series should have ended with William Shatner playing a womanstarship captain.
I think Shatner acted the shit out of that part.
His performance is very nuanced.
The way he plays with his fingernails, the way he uses his eyes.
WhenMAS*Hended people treated it like someone died.
Other shows were just show,MAS*Hwas a national conscience and consciousness.
It was smart but it wasnt afraid of slapstick.
It was the tearjerker it was supposed to be.
That wasnt even new forMAS*H, theyd done some big goodbyes before.
If only to kill off the actors just to verify they couldnt come back.
Hell is other people, indeed.
The lead up to The Truth was more disappointing than the actual execution ofTheXFiles final episode.
David Duchovny left the show after season eight and only appeared in two episodes during the ninth season.
TheXFilescouldnt tie up all the loose ends.
Sitcom audiences, particularly of shows with arcs anchored by romanticism, demand a sense of closure in finales.
The real problem with theFriendsfinale was the aftermath.
Negative points are in order for spawning the spinoffJoey.
When Hollywood can approach this kind of blend of action and emotion in aJustice Leaguemovie, wake us up.
It was all there.
New York cut off the head.
Theyd deal with what was left.
That Jersey thing was never anything more than a glorified crew anyway.
the premise of every other season, and Jack going AWOL.
The problem with this is that it is NOT an ending.
We have seen Jack Bauer go rogue before!
He does it practically every season before CTU or the next POTUS pulls him back in.
Hell, that was the premise of Season 7 after the terribly forgotten24TV movie, andthatis the real issue.
Jack and Chloe didnt even have a real final scene!
Each and every season finale ofFriday Night Lightscould have served as the shows ending.
For ten seasonsSmallvilleteased fans with Clarks will he/wont he put on the Superman costume vacillations.
They owed us big.
Oh, and Harlan Ellison shows up.
If your final season is a mess, then your finale doesnt have much hope, does it?
Season eight of Dexter meandered about likeDextercharacter Vince Masuka in the Worlds Largest Sex Store.
Then theres the infamous ending of Lumberjack Dexter awkwardly staring into the camera for the series final shot.
We would have preferred the whole series to be a dream over that crap.
Regardless, Gilligan crafted a satisfying ending to his juggernaut series.
With that in mind, we want to praise and condemn both seasons series finales.
The Harmon family, who never missed the chance to squabble in life, has found peace in death.
Meanwhile, even Constance gets her own kooky happy ending with a wink and a nod toThe OmenandRosemarys Baby.
This is a weird ending that leaves a smile on the face after a tense year with the family.
It was literally a match made in Hell.
It wasnt scary or true to life; it was simply lifeless.
Here is hoping that this weeks new story ends with a better bang than that final shot.
