Dark.

I was super invested in the show, the concept of time travel and how everything (or anything) is connected (or not) if time is not linear. The end just ruined the whole flow. In my head, I actually have a different ending, which I can elaborate if anyone cares.

Las Vegas. It's a show with James Caan and Josh Duhamel that ran from 2003-2008. The finale was supposed to be a 2 parter but fell victim to the writers strike so the second part never got finished and then it got cancelled before they could wrap it up. It ended on a cliffhanger of course.

Can we mention Farscape? Without the movie it was a massive let down, with the movie it became an impossible mess. Either way, an incredible let down.

I personally think it’s a great ending, even though it was intended to be a cliffhanger for the next series before cancellation, but a lot of fans didn’t like the ending of Quantum Leap where it was said that Sam never made it home.

Dexter. I noped out after the Season 3 finale where they (John Lithgow's psycho killer character) killed his wife. My gf kept watching, and was predictably pissed when they killed the sister in the series finale. I laughed like hell. I will not be watching the reboot.

sgu, sga, sg1 was past its prime and needed a ending as the people working on the show felt it.

both sgu and sga were cliffhanger endings that unfortunate problems like mgm losing money and bankrupting to lower vierership and cancellation. according to the showrunners, and writers they were going to be more arcs being revealed if they continued the next season for both shows.

In this thread, mostly: "Yeah, I know the show was poorly written through several seasons, but I thought the ending would at least be satisfactory."

BEST finale ever is Six Feet Under.
