And this season, there are SO MANY OF THEM.

All of the shows kind of went out with a bang this season and, oddly enough, only one or two really shocked me.

most went out on more of a whimper for me, even *if* they were supposed to be a bang

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I think the only one that really ended up being a bang (so far) was Numb3rs. I really wasn't expecting the ending they gave us. I would've preferred a death, I think.

I don't watch that. I thought House was powerful. Bones, NCIS, Supernatural all king of lame (and I know i've seen other finales but can't even come up with them, which says something I think)

For Numb3rs, they basically destroyed the whole premise of the show. Completely. I'm really interested to see how they work this one out.

Supernatural really disappointed me. Seriously, I saw that one coming from a mile away. I know they were kind of pressed to end the season with a bang, but I think they should've spent some more time on it.

Supernatural went out with a whimper, thats for sure.

Dean certainly deserved a better death than that.

it was just kind of... blah and lame and ho hum, he's dead

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly. And then there was that little "oh, by the way, the creepy-ass demon child is suddenly powerless again Sam".

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I had difficulty caring about that

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
They didn't give us much incentive to care.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
which leads back to the *sigh* bastards

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm beginning to think everything about TV inevitably leads back to that.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
but at least they give us a little of this too

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
and thank heavens for that!

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Otherwise, we'd really have no reason to stick around. Well, no excuse, at least.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
It's possible to watch shows without amazingly cute or hot actors, but by no means as fun!

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-05-21 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
sexy stars and donuts... all we really need in our shows

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-05-22 09:55 am (UTC)(link)
And the occasional bout of dispantsia.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-05-22 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
How could I forget the dispantsia?

You haven't had your donut today?
