I think it's happened to most of us.
You've invested time watching a show and cared about the characters. Maybe you've even shed a tear or two for their suffering. You tuned in every week to see the progression or try to solve the mystery.
But then, in the final episode, something happens that just leaves you with your jaw dropped or saying "What the heck did they just do!?". You may have even experienced denial flipping through the T.V. Guide (in the old days) or going on-line to search out any little hope that what you just saw was not actually it. They were kidding. There's a real series finale next week and they're just yanking your chain this week. But the credits roll, and the cheerful local newscasters cut in to tease you about the week-end weather and you're left in your own little world of sorrow or disgust or possibly even yelling at your television set.
Sound at all familiar? Well, sit down on the couch and let it all out. What, in your opinion, are the worst ever television series finales?
I'll start:
Number 4: "Soap"
Number 3: "Thirtysomething"
Number 2: "Quantum Leap"
Number 1: "St. Elsewhere"
Ah. I feel so much better.
