We talked about the bad and the ugly (worst series finales, how about the "GOOD")

1. Babylon 5 rocked a great end to a supreb series
2. BattleStar Galectica great ending I had saw where it was headed and I must say I approved.
3. Friday Night Lights

    "Newhart" where he wakes up and realizes he's Dr. Bob Hartley married to Suzanne Pleshette. That was one I honestly didn't see coming.

    The finale of "Angel" really encapsulated the series premise of going out fighting.

    And the film SERENITY was a good ending to "Firefly", even if the show deserved to go longer.

    I think I'm one of the only people in the world who liked the West Wing's finale...

    I agree on the finale of Angel beind really good,
    I also really like "Freefall" the final two-parter to Miami Vice (especially Part 2 is great).

    My favorite also. Came out of nowhere and was quite brilliant for it's time.

    Rescue Me. Show was amazing seasons 1-3, took a hit in quality, but the finale was one of the best episodes of the series - funny, emotional and simply awesome.

    Fresh Prince was a great ending.

    Star Trek TNG was good as well, but not as final as we knew they were going to make films.

    Star Trek Voyager was the biggest anti-climax ever, all you see is the ship going towards earth! Big let down, I really wanted to see that ship touch down in San Fransisco and the crew step out to applause at Starfleeet headquarters. X( :-((

    Upstairs Downstairs was a great ending to a marvelous series, good to see it back on our screens over Christmas and there will be 6 new episodes next year too! So I guess it wasn't really an ending and just a 35 year intermission. :)

    Spooks just had a pretty good one. Pretty good if you agree that it should have been befitting the series and not a happy ending! Best cameo in a long running series... ever?

    I would nominate X-Files, Buffy, Angel, Alias, Prison Break and Lost as all ending quite satisfactorily.
    Best of the bunch though was the Battlestar Galactica wind-up. Awe inspiring.
