Where is the HIMYM hate? I never had an ending piss on the viewer more than how that train wreck ended. Made essentially 48 hours play over an entire season that meant nothing, and as an extra shocker even the twist meant nothing and only served as a reminder that the whole season meant nothing.
Probably excluded if it missed the minimum 7.0 average rating for the series, which it would have if we take the numbers on Lostpedia. I have no idea if those are accurate though, since it shows the final episode having better rating than all other episodes in the final season.
I almost threw my phone across the room when I saw Scrubs on this list, but then I saw that they used season 9 as their basis for the "ending," which, of course, is preposterous.
Season 8 is the last season, you watched all of scrubs and you had the beautiful finale (as even the data shows, it’s amazing and my eyes always wet when I rewatch it).
There is no season 9. There is a spinoff show, called “scrubs med”, which takes place in a med school and has some of the scrubs characters as teachers but they are there just as supporting characters. Somebody in charge of the show decided that for scrubs med to be successful it had to be branded as scrubs “proper”, so the show was released as scrubs, season 9.
Obviously it tanked. Too bad, because I think it was a nice show after all.
They changed the format in the last season and did a bunch of smaller myths and the build-team was less involved. They basically knew they weren't going to do any more, so none of the cast were invested.
The 15th season didn't include any of the original cast. Not even Adam and Jamie.
I think the other reply to you may be talking about previous seasons, after the build team left, but that's not the season that's being marked as last in the image. I'm a bit iffy on how the seasons are numbered, but I believe the build team was gone for seasons 13 and 14 with just Adam and Jamie hosting, then season 15, the final one, was the one with two completely new hosts.
I was shocked to see that scrubs made the list because the finale (that I remember) was a heater! But then I counted and saw that it was for season 9, so no surprises there (not that I even gave it a fair chance tbf, I’ve just heard it’s mid)
Different network, fired/didn't pick up two main actors cause they tried to negotiate more money, basically was just mid plot about growing old and learning to live without a friend. And sprinkle in all the B-list actors they tried to force in for gags that didn't fit the tone. Which is saying something for a series that perfectly slotted in a musical episode without skipping a beat.
Having not seen Scrubs at all, kinda curious - is the musical episode the one from Season 6 on the chart that's sharply more disliked than every other episode in the entire series?
If we're being entirely honest it was a different show entirely, on a different network, that just happened to have a few of the same actors playing mostly the same character. They certainly tried but there wasn't enough there to make anything and they specifically only wanted a single extra season as an experiment to see if the audience would migrate networks. They didn't.
The whole premise was that they would show the outbreak and society’s downfall, as it was skipped over in The Walking Dead. That’s how the series started as well.
Then they skipped over big parts of it again, making the series just like The Walking Dead but with even worse characters.
I hated it when it aired, mostly because I saw one episode a week and was confused about everything going on in the last season.
Then I binge-rewatched the whole thing last year and it wasn’t confusing at all. It was beautiful and well-thought out. The ending was perfect and did the whole series justice, while leaving a tasteful few things open to interpretation. I loved it.
The biggest hard-to-swallow about the series was when they abandoned the whole cylon detector thing too easily just so it would fit the story progression.
Scrubs ended in May of 2009 with My Finale: Part 2, tied for first as the highest-rated episode. “Season 9” aka “Med School”was a cash grab continuation merging the silly web series spinoff “Scrubs: Interns” that ABC absolutely fucked. There’s no reason to continue watching past My Finale: Part 2, which is how that phenomenal show ended up anywhere near this list.
The Man in the high castle was really just the last minute that's so absurd. Aside from that it was not bad. Which is telling how bad that last minute was.
I don't recall thr ending of misfits to be bad though, have to look that up.
They had a choice; end the show on a hasty summary or end it on an unresolved cliffhanger. I’m honestly impressed that they shoved the entire last planned season into one episode. It felt cheap, I wanted to see Smith become the monster at a better pace that showed us all the details of his fall, but I don’t envy the showrumners’ position.
Unlike Enterprise, where they halfway invalidated the entire series by making it Riker’s off-hours book report.
