Best ending to a TV series.

Jason Hervey made a horrible Doomsday anyway.

 

The Shield, and it can't be questioned.

 

I liked "Little House on the Prairie: Farewell to the Flesh" when they blew up the entire town and then Laura revealed she was a zombie doppelganger.

 

Best beginning to a TV series, too.

 

Yeah, that was a good ending, although I think the powers that be ended up screwing up when they televised the specials, and ended up showing a Christmas special after they blew up the town.

 

Seinfeld.

 

The "Beavis and Butt-Head" finale is an underrated classic.

 

That was excellent. But then, the whole series was great.

 

Agreed. In a show about nothing, the characters end up in prison for doing nothing. That's pretty clever.
Agree on Frasier and ER. I recall Third Watch being good as well.

 

The more I've thought about it, the more I like it as a meta commentary on their situation, too. They'll be in that cell forever (in syndication/reruns) and the actors themselves would always be remembered not for the other good parts they did, but for being on Seinfeld (its own kind of real-life prison). Some broke out (Julia Louis-Dreyfuss, George Alexander), some died there (Michael Richards), and some (Jerry Seinfeld) just decided he was cozy and stayed there.

 

I get the feeling that shows won't get definitive endings, now that the concept of the revival season or mini-series has caught on. X-Files, Gilmore Girls, even my wife is watching the Full House revival.

If that's the new thing in TV, the door is wide open for a few shows I loved. House could come back. Californication is another I enjoyed. I would also love is Tom Welling showed up as the Smallville version of Superman from the DC TV multiverse.

 

George Alexander broke out!
