series finales
Last episodes ever
Series finales are the last episodes of television shows, wrapping up storylines and concluding character arcs.
The term implies a definitive ending rather than a cancellation mid-season.
Series finales often become cultural events, with devoted fans gathering to watch together: The series finale of Breaking Bad drew record ratings.
A disappointing finale can tarnish an otherwise beloved show.
