Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted August 12, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 12, 2017 Breaking Bad is an obvious one. Breaking Bad was the first show I watched week to week since probably Lost (I often will wait for a show's season to finish and then binge it) and I had that terrible Lost finale in my mind, which led to me worrying about how BB would end. But they did really well. In a similar vein to Tony Soprano, Walt is someone you can root for but he becomes, in the end, a real villain so it had to end how it ended. On The Sopranos, I hated the ended at the time. Then I read an interview with David Chase who said something along the lines of the time we spent with Tony was a window into his life. Although we were moving on from him, his life would continue so it makes sense to end it like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was probably the worst of all time. Breaking Bad was great. The Shield too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undefeated Steak Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I'd stick the final episode of Peep Show in here. The last few series weren't a patch on the first few but that ending with Mark and Jez sat together in the flat was really well done. +1 for Breaking Bad, and I agree with Zeb - Only Fools should've (does in my mind) ended with them on top, would've been the perfect ending to that series. Not as good as Breaking Bad but the final episode of Narcos was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Frankie Crisp Posted August 12, 2017 Awards Moderator Share Posted August 12, 2017 The Office (UK) ended perfectly with that Christmas episode. Brent meeting a decent girl and telling Finchy to fuck off, the Tim and Dawn ending and the final bit where Brent makes a balls of the photo. It's such a great piece of telly.

Given that I mentioned this in my original post, I have to ask if you're taking the piss. It's awesome. And even if you don't think so, I don't see how it can be labelled "worst of all time". How else should it, could it have ended? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that him telling Finchy to fuck off bit. We all know finchy's. He would have rolled through the, "Chris, Fuck off!" and ripped more dignity out of Brent. I always found it stupid that a "banter" person's face would melt like it's Indiana Jones just because he was told to fuck off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The police & FBI all chasing him in a perfect formation for 30 minutes, as he drives along at a tepid 20 mph. The motorcycle cops were driving so slow they were having trouble balancing their bikes. The stupid pose he does before he crashes. The crow flying overhead. The truck driver happens to be a guy his mother just met. The crappy CGI of the accident itself. Lame and shit on every possible level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd been chipping away at Brent for the entirety of the show and not once did he get anything back other than a desperate giggle or beg for affirmation. It was the first time Brent stood up to him and as a bully, he just didn't know how to take it. I thought it was very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Nick Soapdish Posted August 12, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 12, 2017 Breaking Bad is a great one. i also really rated Ashes to Ashes at the time. It tied up and explained both itself and Life on Mars. It airedthe same weekend as the Lost Finale so at least one of them didn't disappoint. The American Office had a pretty good ending, not as good as the original like. And Boy Meets World Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Maestro Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The finale of Blackadder is still the saddest end to a fantastic show that gets me everytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
