You're right that this isn't a "Best TV Show Finale" list. Most like "Shows That Ended With A Bang!". The Middle looks like a very consistent show that ends with a big uptick. That 70's show had declining quality until the finale brought it back up to what looks like it's best rated episode. This is still an interesting list. I think an inverse list would also be very interesting to look at: ie. Which TV shows bombed their finale? (Will GOT be #1?)
Another question I had was... wtf happened with Golden Girls season 2 finale?
OP posted it the other day, made the same mistake but I think they updated the title. Should be easy to find if you look at their post history.
Still good data, and interesting stuff, just bad titles
Found it, thanks! https://sopuli.xyz/post/16369988
That's just a sad list actually. Scrubs might have been on the other list if they had called season 9 a spinoff.
There was also a crosspost on this community, [email protected], with a lot more comments
I’ve watched all eight seasons of Scrubs several times. I just give season 9 the Godfather part III treatment.
Oh man, same here. I identify with JD too much. Never seen season 9 a second time although I kinda want to like it.
Same. We’d either get along really well or annoy each other in four minutes.
Ba ba bwaaaanu
