have there been ANY good series finales???

- Start date
Seems like every season-ender I can think of, even if it's good it's painful to watch.
I actually liked the final Seinfeld, but it's still a little too melancholy knowing that the party is coming to an end.

i was gonna mention seinfeld but it seems obvious seeing as how everyone loved the series but did not like the finale....i've also heard more negative reviews on the finale of the wire.... and i remember oz going steadily downhill over the last 2 seasons...still thinking of more
I liked the final episode of The Monkees, which was a surreal psychedelic scene that prefigured their movie Head. Peter Tork gets hypnotized by a TV test pattern, and then when the boys get out of that jam, the last scene on the last show is a performance by Tim Buckley.
No one KNEW this was going to be the end, but with a episode this drastically different, you just knew the program would die or grow. The Monkees wanted to do another season of episodes just like it; NBC wanted them to return to their old sitcom formula; no consensus was reached and the network pulled the plug. But it was a hell of a way to go out.

Are you saying this was a good one? I don't remember what came before it, but the final montage was so bad that my girl and I were laughing through it.

oh my word - the 15 Unintentionally Perverted Toys for Children has me in tears.

And if memory serves, the finale to NYPD Blue was OK. Yup, I was watching that shit right up to the end.

Arrested Development and TP are great calls.
I was into the Sopranos finale. Seinfeld too, mostly.
6FU was a solid ep w/ a horrible coda.
Lost finale should be trainwreck quality.

...and the final scene was parodied on the final scene of the final episode of Everybody Hates Chris
Without hesitation:
The Wonder Years
I didn't watch every episode of The Sopranos, but did watch isolated seasons. I liked the series finale because it ended exactly like the music video.

IMO Series finales, in general, are usually good because the show eventually becomes so bad that the finale assures no more episodes. Only a handful of shows gracefully bail out. They always take some wack turn a season or 2 before the end. This is usually the case with sitcoms though. Dramas, in recent years, seem to end on a satisfying note.
