TV’s Most Controversial Series Finales

What are the most debated series finales on TV?

LOST, Dexter, How I Met Your Mother, Game of Thrones, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Sopranos, Seinfeld, and The Shield. Each of these shows have one thing in common and it’s not just people dying. They each created a massive divide among fans, and also between fans and creators, when their series finally ended. So we decided to head into the past and revisit some of these finales, and exclude any extension of these series that might now exist, and discuss if they are truly that bad? Let’s debate the TV’s most controversial series finales!

Editor’s Note: This is specifically for TV shows that had an intended series finale rather than an abrupt, forced conclusion to the show.
