Best (or most satisfying) TV series finales. Post a promo video if you can find one...

Last edited Sun Feb 24, 2019, 06:23 AM - Edit history (1)

The most emotionally wrenching:
Breaking Bad: (promo to Junip's "Line of Fire"




The most satisfying (wrapped up the series in the most satisfying way):
Six Feet Under (to Sia's "Breathe Me&quot :




The most nostalgic:
M*A*S*H (of course)




Most clever: (Newhart Show--for the youngsters, it harkened back to the original Bob Newhart show in the end with Bob waking up in bed with his original wife from the first series, Suzanne Pleshett)

Well, I guess 3rd, given the OP.

One of my ex-GF's said she bawled for a 1/2 hour straight. Which, to me, is solid accolades. She has good taste in TV I mean.

I gotta finally watch that dang show. Been meaning to for forever ...

Breaking Bad was also an amazing finale, though.

I'm hoping Game of Thrones here in few months tops it!

I believe they recorded several endings for MASH in order to keep it a secret.

very few animated series do have promotions for their finales.
