Any movies or tv shows that got to the grand finally and you were like "what the actual fuck!"

Mine was Lost. Felt it was a rushed lazy ending.

I hate Friends when Rachel says 'I got off the plane' in that stupid whiny voice!

EvangelineTheNightStar · 28/02/2026 20:51

How I met your mother….
shitty shitty ending!!

CorporaINobbyNobbs · 28/02/2026 20:53

Agree with Evangeline what a crock! Also hated Penny being pregnant at the end of TBBT.

Interested in this thread?

La La Land. I so wanted them to stay together in keeping with the spirit of the film and was irrationally angry when they didn't.

BlueEyedBogWitch · 28/02/2026 20:56

Ghosts. I didn’t want Alison and Mike to leave Button House.

Hard agree with Ghosts. Just seen today that they are making a Ghosts UK movie how the hell will that work.

Line of Duty. Just such a disappointment.

Yourangduckie · 28/02/2026 21:03

@Bingbangboo I love that Rachel got off the plane 🤣 I've not seen the other ones mentioned so thanks for the watch list.

Was going to post exactly the same. The new season better be good!

Yellowstone. Taylor Sheridan spoilt it. I know wit had to end but if he hadn’t fallen out with KC, it could have been so much better.

Morepositivemum · 28/02/2026 21:05

The us office, should have ended earlier with Michael still as boss!

MrsLizzieDarcy · 28/02/2026 21:06

Another yes to Yellowstone. One of the best series I've watched in years but utterly trashed in the last season. No wonder Kevin Costner walked away.

Xfiles

Ozark with Ruth dying.
GoT with Dani going berserk, being stabbed and that useless Bran becoming King.

Alternativelyviewed · 28/02/2026 21:09

Ragnarok

Brilliant and then...it was all.a dream !

Alternativelyviewed · 28/02/2026 21:10

@CharlotteRumpling yes re Ruth

Yourangduckie · 28/02/2026 21:25

Thought of another one. The end of St elsewhere. I just don't understand how a young boy would have all that knowledge to make it all up.

Avengers Endgame makes no sense, from start to finish. Time travel is always a terrible plot device, but in that film the Avengers are also just fucking stupid all the way through.

Figgygal · 28/02/2026 21:31

How I met your mother and game of thrones are the obvious ones
And just like that was always a hate watch but the last episode was a fucking insult

WeAreNumpties · 28/02/2026 21:46

It's got to be Game of Thrones, years of fantastic telly completely spoilt by the last season. Lost runs it a close second, just ridiculous.

xogossipgirlxo · 28/02/2026 21:55

Another vote on how i met your mother. I hate Robin

CuriousKangaroo · 28/02/2026 22:02

Bingbangboo · 28/02/2026 20:51

Hard agree. Plus, I don’t consider it a happy ending when Rachel gave up her dream job and career to be with Ross of all bloody people.

Yourangduckie · 28/02/2026 22:04

The watcher was another series. Took us through a lot and gave nothing at the end.

Flocke · 28/02/2026 22:38

The ending of Lost didn’t bother me. I’d resigned myself to the fact they didn’t know what they were doing in about season 3. The only thing that annoys me about it is the amount of people who still think they were dead all along! 🤣

Slightly different but an ending I hate/makes me feel horrible is the film The Mist. I really like the film but can’t watch the ending.

Yourangduckie · 28/02/2026 22:45

They weren't dead all along @Flocke

Star Wars Episode IX

That is all...
