Of all the shows I've seen to the end, Monk is the only one I can think of whose ending provided closure and didn't feel rushed or jarring. Fringe looks like it's building up to a good end though.
Discuss shows that ended well, and feel free to post the ending if you can find it.
No clip, but the incredible closing song from Monk, by [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTM6mmAqRwA]Randy Newman[/url].

Corner Gas. They brought it to a close in a way I thought was very appropriate for a comedy series. The biggest thing being, it didn't leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Samurai Champloo had a really classy ending, I thought.

MASH, Scrubs.

Ed, Edd, 'n' Eddy.

Season 2 ending of MLP.

The actress who played Trudy's daughter in the Monk finale, Alona Tal, voiced Kat in Halo: Reach. I just felt like sharing that.

By the time a show reaches a conclusion, its usually gone stale anyway.

they ended it with that special where they find out eddies brother is a huge jerk right?

I've never had the patience to watch an entire TV series, so no, I guess not.

The series was brilliant until the finale. The final episode wasn't on Netflix, so I paid $2 on Amazon to watch it, and was given a "derp, it was just a dream lololol they're literally on Mars" ending. Raged so hard.

I liked [i]That 70s Show[/i]'s finale. Last half-minute couldn't have ended better.

That IS an awful ending. Look up the original one on Youtube, it's one of the best endings ever IMO.

I came here to say monk but OP seems to have great taste in tv.

I don't know how the rest of you feel,but I think that House M.D. had an exceptional ending.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Murcielago00 I liked [i]That 70s Show[/i]'s finale. Last half-minute couldn't have ended better.[/quote] That's true. It gave a true impression of characters moving on with their lives. They were no longer that group of teenagers huddled around a basement table smoking weed. They had careers, goals, ambitions. And to top it all off, the 70s ended. That 70s show: show of the year, all years. [Edited on 11.18.2012 2:05 PM PST]

I really enjoyed Battlestar Galactica's (rebooted series) finale.

Even the endings were nearly identical until Sam suddenly wakes up on a spaceship and it turns out the characters are crewmen. It was just a giant slap in the face. Just watched the ending...holy crap, is that the Master from Doctor Who? [Edited on 11.18.2012 2:10 PM PST]
