Oh the humanity!

Soooo I just finished watching my box set of Seinfeld. Just watched the last episode. The finale. The full-stop. The end. What the hell was that!? I mean seriously, Jerry, Larry, what the hell was that!?
I was so disappointed! I couldn’t believe that Jerry and George were moving to California in the first place, I hated that idea, I always felt they should stay together, but to see them all go to gaol in the end, and for nothing!? I know that some thought that the show went out following the creed of being about nothing, by having all the main characters being tried and convicted of doing nothing, but come on, that was offal!
I can’t believe in nine years of writing the show they thought that anyone would want to see them all end up in gaol! And not even together, no Elaine would be off by herself, whilst the other three are in the same place. And the final scene being Jerry doing bad stand up at the gaol was offensive in its crappiness. Seinfeld would have to by my favorite series ever, so I can’t believe that that episode was how it went out. Way to blemish the record of a great show! So in this entry right now, I am going to vent my frustrations at the crapness that is too many series finales.
Sopranos: That ending was very anticlimactic, I mean, most of the Soprano crew ended up dead! And all because of snot-face Phil Leotardo!? Wha? I hated that guy, and analysis of the final episode suggest that Tony dies by Phil’s order too. I just felt so let down in the end, that was so blegh an ending for a series which had been very edgy.
Angel: What the heck was with that!? Most, if not ALL of the main characters DIE! What were you thinking, Joss!? I can’t follow this train of thought… ‘Hmm, I know the network is axing my show at the end of this season, better wrap it up… they all die!’ Ya moron! I was rewatching the Angel seasons not that long back, only to realise, I hated most of the series. All the stuff with Connor sucked, the fact that Cordelia disappeared after all that crap was really a punch to the show, and then it ends up with Angel becoming extremely morally ambiguous, and then they all die, well now that was just tripe. Serious rubbish there. In fact it was listed in Zap2it’s worst series finales ever, along with Seinfeld.
I am getting close to never ever watching the series finale of any show that I actually like ever again. I mean really, why is it that so many shows end on the stupid, the depressing, the lackluster!? Remember the final episode of Buffy? She saved the entire world and caused every potential Slayer to be activated, now that’s an ending. Take note, writers, take note!
