Best and worst series ending episodes Comments Off
I’m in a list making mood for some reason, and I’ve been thinking about different series and how their final episodes were handled. So here’s a best/worst multi-fandom final ep list.
Best
Quantum Leap – Sam never got home, but he made sure Al got a chance at happiness.
Babylon 5 – Gut wrenching squared. I cried like a baby. And I was smiling at the same time.
Mash – I can’t even watch this ep anymore. I was too young to understand it all when it first aired, but once I figured it out…. good god.
Worst
Dark Shadows (Second version) – I know they *filmed* an ending episode, but they never aired it. No closure whatsoever. Still grumpy about that.
Deep Space 9 – They were getting stronger towards the end, but I’d stopped caring by then.
Voyager – See above.
