Best Series Finales?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. MKWillis (184) 5 years ago

With The Sopranos ending its run I got to thinking about series that got to go out on a grace note with memorable final shows. Among my favorites:

The Fugitive (Kimble finally catches up with the one-armed man who killed his wife and clears his name)

The Mary Tyler Moore Show (everyone except Ted Baxter is fired but the show still ends up being as charmingly funny as it poignant)

Newhart (Bob wakes up with Susanne Pleshette, his TV wife from The Bob Newhart Show, and finds that the whole series was a bad dream)

Six Feet Under (we discover the final fates of all of the major characters)

What are your favorite series finale episodes?

I never seem to manage to see an entire series of any show, unless its reruns after the show has ended. But l do remember the last show of Mary Tyler more now that you have mentioned it. Geez you have a good memory.

I remember rushing home to watch the last episode of M.A.S.H and crying through most of the show but thats it. Now I'm going to have to look it up.

The final episode of Seinfeld l though we got short changed, it was a little to far fetched.

All in the Family was totally sad with Edith dying, again lots of tears.

Good question! You made me think back to those great shows and of that time.

There are two that come to mind. The M*A*S*H finale with Goodbye written with stones on the ground as the helicopter pulls away.And the Dallas finale. You hear a gun shot. Did J.R. shoot himself? Who knows?
