So finally caught up with last Series of Peaky Blinders, and what a stinker ! One of my favourite shows too.

Any other Series which have gone up like a rocket and down like a stick ?

Stargate sg1, what on earth was that about ?

I think pretty much every worst last episode comes from series that didn’t expect to end , like they never wrote an ending because they wanted the series just to go on and on and on.

Something like Babylon 5 always had an ending in mind so that last episode was awesome , they knew where to story was going.

These all felt like the writer had written themselves into a corner and couldn't think of a clever ending.

Only Fools and Horses - this should have ended with them being millionaires, but instead the episodes after this were universally poor, just treading water.

That final episode of the soprano’ s wasn’t good….

Actually last episode of breaking bad wasn’t good either!!

The problem with game of thrones wasn’t the episode.. it’s that they squashed it into 6… if the last two series had been the normal 10/11 each, rather than 7 and 6… I don’t think you’d get the complaints!!!!

Everything after 24 series 3… and homeland series 2!!!

Everything after they found the polar bear on the island in lost!!

The thing about Lost was that it started really really good. Then got progressively worse, like a lot of tv shows.

But then the producers cleverly revealed that it would end at the end of the next series. So fans like me kept watching to see how it ended. Spoiler.....it ended horribly.

Game of Thrones is simply the champion of this.

It was the heavyweight, people loved it, a juggernaut of the tv world. It was going so well for 5 seasons. Then it took a bit of a hit for 6 and 7 but held its ground well enough. (the Dorne storyline was the first sign of trouble)

Then the finale season came and it threw the fight.

Never has a show taken a fall from such height of praise as GoT has in such a sudden decline.

Other shows have had bad endings, but not in the same contrast for how good it was leading up to that end.

What is an ending anyway?

As long as the show was good, I can't say I'm that bothered about how it ends.

Unless they cancel something and have to shoehorn an ending in.

I think they should have skipped the final episode of Thrones and just left it with Jon and Dany. No one cared who was going to rule afterwards. Especially out of those bunch of boring cunts.

The ending was always going to be meh as they killed off all the best characters. Thrones was more about the journey than the destination.

Game of Thrones.

I didn't so much mind what happened, but it was very rushed and nothing like the earlier seasons in terms of quality.

And The Walking Dead. Now fair enough I haven't finished it, but the earlier seasons were absolutely immense and beautiful and they fucking ruined it. Now it's like a shitty TV soap opera full of awful acting and ridiculous storylines.

Maybe it shouldn’t had ended

Maybe it should be left with open end

The endings of both One Foot In The Grave and Inspector Morse, to my mind, didn't work.

They were brave attempts at being emotional and bitter-sweet by killing the main protagonists but both endings - otherwise absolutely brilliant shows - came across as clunky. There were not necessary.

PS - Those choosing The Sopranos ending haven't studied the final series close enough. The clues are ALL in there!!!

I tend to agree. So many Series end badly because the Creators want to wrap up the loose ends or have a big dramatic closure. The Sopranos avoided all this by leaving everything open to interpretation.

Not seeing any suggestions on what would have been a better ending for these shows.

One man's meat is another man's poison.

It's what the writers wanted, it's their choice and probably a very hard thing to do.

I have nowhere near any of their talents so wouldn't criticise their craft.

Ooh I understand the Derry girls ending but I didn’t like both either… you knew they couldn’t end on happiness in the times of the troubles, so rather than killing off someone that way this was more palatable so to speak! And my biggest gripe is they left so many storylines open that they could make another series, but she is adamant they won’t!!

The answer would have been a Xmas special to wrap it up
