Best & Worst finales to a TV series

Hmm, worst I think I would have to give to How I Met Your Mother. It's been a while since I saw it (when it aired), but I remember it feeling sort of disingenuous and it also felt like the writers refused to move away from their intended ending if the show had ended after a couple of seasons, but since it lasted a lot longer the intended ending no longer worked.

From what I've heard Dexter's finale is supposed to be really bad too, but I fell of watching Dexter before the last couple of seasons and have been heavily encouraged to not watch the rest of the show that I haven't watched, so I'm heeding that advice.


Best I think I'll give to Hannibal. Great direction, great cinematography and beautiful and satisfying storytelling. And then just to top it off, new music with Siouxsie!

I'll put in a "best" vote for Twin Peaks circa 1991. "How's Annie?"

Excellent choice!

...and this, of course:

Oh another Best? MASH!! Even though I bawl like a two year-old when I watch it.
