iceroll Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 A finale I'm really looking forward to is How I Met Your Mother. I'm looking forward to that too, but I'm not sure what else they can do for the finale now that we already know who the mother is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheshireMoon Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I think I good season finale is when you are left wanting more but the story is kind of rounded off for the viewer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bacon Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 So I just finished The Shield and that shit needs way more love than it's getting. Holy hell. There's no questioning for me why most critics treat it as the golden standard of series finales. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 ST:TNG and BABYLON 5 had excellent finales. In a very different vein, so did THE PRISONER (although man, if that came out today, people would've gone apeshit over it. You think the LOST finale was controversial?)

The47th Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) I loved the Ugly Betty finale. It's surprising because even if the show lasted only four seasons, you get a sense that the story and the characters have had a clear development and that it has come to its natural close. I would say I rank Six Feet Under's and Battlestar Galactica's as the best of all. On the other hand, Gossip Girl's ending was not good. It makes no sense because the show got an actual final season to tie things up, but they wasted 80% of the time developing yet another arc in the story, only to get to the important business in the last two episodes, leaving the feeling that it was still a rush ending. It's a shame, because with the previous two seasons they had brought back the spark the show had been losing after the first year. But they went from making one of the best seasons to ending the show with the worst one. And THAT final revelation... Gilmore Girls had a really excellent ending even if it was kind of abrupt. Brothers and Sisters didn't have a good ending cause it was prematurely cancelled. I liked the Gilmore finale. It was very fitting for the series even if it wasn't written by the creators. They made so much justice to the spirit of the show by stating that Rory didn't need a boyfriend to be happy and to have a satisfying ending. She was dreaming with her career through the whole show, and she was not ready to give it all up for a man. It was a brave creative decision, and I applaud them for that. Concerning Brothers and Sisters, it's much more obvious that it was not meant to be a series finale. But in the end you can relate the state they left the story to the ever-changing nature of families. Unless you go down the Six Feet Under route, there's not real a way to put an end to a story like this. They left things fairly closed, so it can still be seen as a finale.

grim22 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 A finale I'm really looking forward to is How I Met Your Mother. I'm looking forward to that too, but I'm not sure what else they can do for the finale now that we already know who the mother is. I think the finale would be in the running for "Worst of all time". It broke the fanbase on par with the "Superman has a kid" reveal in "Superman Returns" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 How I met your mother finale was definitely one of the worst of all time. Lost wasn't so bad as the whole season 6 became a chore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The47th Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I thought the office had a very good finale Yes, very very good finale. Probably the best episode in those last couple of years. I was surprised I didn't love the 30 Rock finale. It may be because the whose series is so brilliant that my expectations were a bit unrealistic, but the only moments that completely wowed me were those last few minutes.

4815162342 Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 I liked the BSG finale. I loved a lot of it, but there were also a few things that I shook my head at (them being the ancestors of modern humans and simply throwing away most of their technology being the big ones). But it had music that rivaled anything LOST threw out (let alone most movies). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Yes, very very good finale. Probably the best episode in those last couple of years. I was surprised I didn't love the 30 Rock finale. It may be because the whose series is so brilliant that my expectations were a bit unrealistic, but the only moments that completely wowed me were those last few minutes. I thought the finale there was perfect, and showcased everything that the show did best, with both it's absurdity and heart coming through all at once (Jack's belief he no longer fit in going hand in hand with the writing staff's battle over lunch). The scene with Jack and Liz when he's about to sail away is among the show's finest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Freak Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Someone can describe the Dexter finale as "good" only in the way that euthanasia could probably be "good". That show became such a joke and a dried-up husk of its former self from Season 6 onward that it was a great relief to just see it end its own misery. Even if a single episode hadn't been released after the Season 5 finale, the show would've been remembered on such a glorious note that it isn't even funny. HIMYM is the perfect example of a shit finale, though I never found the show to be all that in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
