ENTER: TV & Media Avatar Contest - Memorable Finales

[Daneel]

It's that time of year again: the TV season is winding down, and several shows have closed up shop forever. Some have literally been a staple on television for decades (Law & Order), some changed the face of the medium for the twenty-first century (Lost, 24), some were one-season wonders (Flashforward), and some probably should've been one-season wonders (Heroes).

This contest is about the television series finales that (for better or worse) left a strong impression on you. Whether you loved it or hated it, post an image of it here. Usual avatar rules apply, and since this is the general TV & Media forum, I'm going to say no sci-fi/fantasy entries (I have a feeling the thread would be inundated with them otherwise). Poll will probably go up late Thursday.

Have fun!

I considered using that very scene myself.

Are you a young whippersnapper?

I'm 27, and I've seen every single episode of the Mary Tyler Moore Show.

I'm going in a slightly different direction with this one. Probably one of the most disappointing finales ever, but I think it's still left quite an impression on people for that very reason. Thankfully, Larry David redeemed himself on Curb with his Seinfeld reunion.

Dammit, my first thoughts were Newhart and Mary Tyler Moore. I'll have to think of something else!

Perhaps the first-ever planned series finale in American TV history, the two-part climax of "Route 66", aired March 1964. Martin Milner and Barbara Eden tie the knot.

Probably. I can think of few series finales that were such rail-splitters as Angel's intentional cliffhanger finale.

I've entered this before for a different theme, but it didn't win, so...
