To celebrate (!?) the ending of this very eventful TV season, EW counts down 20 of their favorite season finales. Plenty of genre shows make the cut, including Star Trek: TNG, Farscape, Alias, The X-Files and Buffy (above.)
Did your favorite make the list? (IMO: Both Alias and The X-Files had better finales than the ones they chose.)
The season one finale of BSG was better (more shocking anyways) than the season two finale… Go fig.
I don’t know. I think Lost has had better season finales than #4. I remember all the intensity and anxiety around The Hatch and how it really hasn’t been that intriguing since. It’s been good, just not like that.
And I’m a bit flummoxed why the series finale of Newhart wasn’t on there. To me that was the best show ender of all time. But I guess they were looking for cliff hangers.
Series finales are a whole different bag, I think…
Though I know a guy who somehow missed that Buffy was moving to UPN, and thought The Gift was the last episode of the series. That was a boggler… As I recall, UPN even bought billboards for that one.
