Which TV series had the worst final episode?
I'm nominate the NBC show Las Vegas. The final show had a quadruple cliff hanger and then they cancel it with no kind of closure at all. It was a perfect example of NBC slapping it's viewers in the face.

19. Why do you think Enterprise did so badly?
I liked the look of it, the writers and alien effects guys were good. I think it has to do with the canonical stuff getting to the fan base. In a futuristic spaced based storyline, people want to look forward on the time line, not backward.

21. That last episode was pathetic
Edited on Mon Dec-07-09 03:54 PM by rcrush
Even Jonathan Frakes said in an interview that it was real bad.


They had Riker in his beer gut girdle watching the last mission of the NX Enterprise while he was in the middle of that mission with the Romulans and corrupt Admiral? No wonder he ended up in the brig at the end of the episode.


You're right I'm so sick of prequels. I wanted a series to show the aftermath of the Dominion War in the TNG Universe.

18. That was my answer!
I remember watching it as a kid and being absolutely flabbergasted that it would just go poof! with no answer. You would think they would have made a TV movie with Frank Converse for the fans to wrap things up.

5. Seinfeld. ...
I'd say the American Life on Mars, but if you lop off that last bit it was actually pretty good.

9. The Sarah Connor Chronicles
I know they "wrapped" some things up in a way, but opened the door to so much more. I want another frackin season of that show!
