Best TV Series Finale
There have been plenty of amazing TV shows over the decades. But it's rare when a show really nails the landing, leaving viewers satisfied with the conclusion and wistful for the journey. There have been some truly memorable TV finishes over the years. And now the Great Pop Culture Debate podcast wants to determine: What IS the best TV series finale of all time? We discuss “The Good Place,” “Downton Abbey,” “The West Wing,” “The Golden Girls,” “Breaking Bad,” “M.A.S.H.,” “The Mary Tyler Moore Show,” “Parks and Recreation,” “The Office,” “Six Feet Under,” “Newhart,” “Mad Men,” and more.
Host Eric Rezsnyak and panelists Amma Marfo, Karissa Kloss, and Kevin Dillon look back at the best final episodes of some of television’s most beloved series, as they try to name the best TV series finale of all time.
