I had my idea of what the series finale of 'King of the Hill' would be, but that's not what the actual series finale was.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
To me, the series was the end of the actor, when the series ended.
It happened to me on 'King of the Hill,' where I'd left it before the end and didn't really participate in the ending, and I always felt a little bit like I wanted to try a different version of that story.
This idea that you can watch a show like 'True Detective,' and it was awesome, but is it really ruined for you if the finale is not your favorite episode of it? It's just odd to me.
The writing of a series finale is horrible.
Series finales have that responsibility to leave you feeling good about entire series. You want to feel like the viewer closes the book satisfied. And if you strike out on the finale it skews how you feel about the entire series.
I can't say that the ending of a story is always the best part of the story, and yet there's sort of this implicit idea that the finale is somehow supposed to be the mind-blowing best episode of a show. The question is: Why is that? Why do people make that assumption?
It's part of the human character to want to know what's over the next hill, to want to know what's beyond.
'The Return Of The King' has a conclusion.
The whole world of 'Game of Thrones' was realized with such detail, with directors and writers who really geeked out and really loved all the little bits of it.
My favorite film is probably the finale - 'Deathly Hallows: Part 2'.
