BGP Nation what do say is the best single episode to end a TV series?

How about the worst?

 

No season ending episodes of a series that continued the next season...only series enders up for discussion.

MASH

Friday Night Lights

Early thoughts for one of the best.......Friday Night Lights Series finale.

M*A*S*H was iconic but the last episode was just good to me not great as an episode on it's own.

 

 

One of the worst....Seinfeld.

MASH

Friday Night Lights

 

those were the first two that I though of also, FNL last episode was so good I can't bring myself to erase from DVR to make more space.

Best were M*A*S*H and Newhart. Worst were The Sopranos and Seinfeld.

Huge fan of how Six Feet Under ended theirs.

Best:

MASH, Friends, Johnny Carson's Tonight Show

 

Worst:

Seinfield, ER

I liked Cheers.

Newhart & Johnny Carson

The Fugitive

Playmakers, Friends, Nip Tuck

 

Think of more later

90210, David and Donna finally get married. J/K.

 

Best ever, though it doesn't qualify, was Michael J Fox's last episode of Spin City. One of the best episodes of anything I've ever seen. Poignant, full of emotion, and yet still funny. Even threw in a Alex P Keaton reference. Since it was his finale, I had to mention it.

 

Best ever for me was the Mary Tyler Moore Show. Had all of the above, except it counts on this list.

 

Partial to the last Family Ties as well. I guess I like Michael J Fox. Actually, this was very good, and the scene when he and his mom finally have it out, is great drama wrapped into a sitcom.

 

I liked Seinfeld's finale just fine. I thought it was very funny bringing back all the characters the group had caused collateral damage to over the years (without even giving it a second thought mind you) so they could finally have their say.

 

MASH was hard to watch, until the last 30 minutes. Not bad, but even as an adult, that episode just doesn't flow like other MASH's did for me.

 

Newhart had a great ending.

 

No really bad one's for me.

I liked Cheers.

 

Good call. This one was pretty fitting.

I know I'm in the minority, but I am quite alright with The Sopranos' series finale. In fact I like it.

 

Also, once again let me say that Six Feet Under's series finale was simply amazing. But that is to be expected from one of the greatest dramas ever.

Beverly Hills 90210.

 

Nothing beats Donna and David getting married. Nothing.

 

If only Brandon would have came back for the wedding. He did direct or produce it though.
