The ending to Postman Pat was rubbish and absolutely gutting. Sent down for robbing postal orders and money out of birthday cards? Fuck off!

Think that was the adult channel version- Postman in my twat

I liked the ending to Justified as well. Also, Kingdom had a shocking, brutal final. Loved that show.

 

Banshee wasn’t bad either.

Yeah Kingdom was brilliant, totally unexpected the way it went but very well done.

[Bjornebye]

Topless Darts was always a shit ending. 

 

So was the weather in Norwegian. Who wants to hear a British accent on the vinegar strokes? 

[Carvalho Diablo]

Blackadder was the best, Spartacus was also excellent.

[Sugar Ape]

Did you ever watch Kingdom @Lee909? It’d be right up your street.

[Captain Howdy]

Best Breaking Bad, worst The Prisoner

No, I never find time to watch series these days. That's the MMA one? 

 

If so it's a bit down the list. Pretty bored of all the bullshit around MMA these days. Blame the Irish tattoo'd dickhead and his nuthuggers for ruining it. 

 

Believe it or not I've never watched one episode of Sharpe so just bought the box set and I'm starting that and Vikings this weekend while I start glueing and painting a load of new wargames miniatures 

[Mook]

The office was a killer ending, it had everything including the perfect amount of sentiment.

 

Even when I watch it now I can't get over how good it is, Gervais has spent the rest of his life trying to recreate that level of genius & never got close.

 

Blackadder is another great shout.

[Elite]

Kingdom is immense. I implore everyone to watch it whether you're a fan of MMA or not, it's top class drama with great characters.

I’m no MMA aficionado but I don’t think Kingdom is set at the same level as McGregor etc...

 

It’s more local LA scene. It’s fucking brilliant thought, you definitely should give it a go.

It's worth it for Keith alone.

Prison Break? Im struggling to fully recall it but I seem to remember thinking it was quite good? Various characters laying flowers at the grave wasnt it?    

And then three escapees came up through the grave with shovels.

Everything I see Gervais in is another version of Brent. Even when hes being interviewed on something like The One Show.

 

Its a shame but I dont think it will ever be brought back

Just discussing this subject with my mate. Best ending is still The Shield.

Agreed. 
 

The Wire is the greatest telly I’ve ever seen but The Shield is the most addictive and that final series is incredible. 

[littletedwest]

Yeah the shield defo.six feet under is great as well.

I did enjoy the wire and sopranos endings as well despite what some people thought 

[Guest]

I'm coming to the end of The Sopranos (probably about 7 episodes to go of the marathon last season) and one thing I can't work out:

 

Was the weight gain specifically for the character of Anthony Soprano or was it a case of James Gandolphini putting on weight as part of his life? I know you see him eat a lot so I assume it's a character development but was that intentional or was that circumstantial?

[littletedwest]

I think he just gained weight. They had a lot of actors in mind for tony but on the audition he had to have an altercation with Chris and gandolfini picked him up off the floor so they had their guy. The guy who played Jackie was considered as well as Ray liotta and the guy who played richie

[Evelyn Tentions]

Mr Inbetween

I'm hoping it's not the last episode ever but the last show of season 2 of Mr Inbetween was stunning, incredibly emotional.

[polymerpunkah]

"Deadwood" was amongst my worst.

 

I loved that show, the group of characters was fantastic. Great new character after great new character. I didn't want any of them to die, even the worst of the villains.

 

And it petered out like an old man's piss.

The scene with Stig fingering Jess was just traumatic.

Don't think it was planned as a last episode 

[RedKnight]

Plus there's now the movie that HBO did last year.

[Davelfc]

Life on Mars

 

I'm sure I read that not was supposed to be one series, then they quickly changed it so they could stretch another series out of it. That may not be correct of course but it would help to explain why the second series and the ending was fucking shit.
