Absolutely correct.

The other correct answers are 'Fringe', 'Breaking Bad', and 'STTNG'. As an aside, STTNG is also a pretty good - not great - pinball machine.

Correct on the correct.

I thought the ending to Six Feet Under was silly. That show died after Season 2, anyway.

S(oap + ucked) as well

Yeah when Dorothy hugs Scarecrow and tell him she’ll miss him most of all, brings me to tears every time .

I don't think I totally understand what happened. IIRC there was the riot, some people were killed (?), and then they piled everyone into a busses and drove off to house them in another prison.

Some people, only one prisoner survived

Poor Harold Perrineau survived the riot, rehabilitated himself out of the wheelchair only to be eaten alive by Bart the bear in The Edge.

You know what one I liked because it did what a good finale is supposed to do? Give you a good wrap up and close out the story lines? The Wonder Years. Never gets a peep though last line was classic.

Beecher unknowingly killed Vern because Keller switched a knife (ok, that was lame), then Keller took care of the rest of the Aryans by having someone mail a package of an anthrax type substance to the mailroom killing the Aryans who worked there and causing the evacuation. He killed himself while blaming Beecher right before that.

Probably not accurate, but something like that. I just remember not being disappointed by the ending.
