    The Shield has the best finale I've ever seen. Just perfect.
    My other favourites:
    Angel
    Boy Meets World
    The Wire
    Cowboy Bebop
    Shiki
    Firefly (if you count Serenity)
    Malcolm in the Middle

      I had to google Shiki. Thanks for the suggestion. Another one to add to the list. 🙂

        Agree. Unparalleled greatness, that ending.

          And to think e-online has The Shield finale classified as a bad finale!! Ridiculous!!

          There's no place for truth on the internet!

            It is the best ending I have ever seen. It was so true to who Vic is and how the strike team paid the ultimate price.
            I think close second is the finale for The Wire.
            Bringing up the rest are;
            Breaking Bad
            Justified
            SOA

              I can only join the choir here and I am no biiiig fan of the Shield. It's 7/10 show tops in my book but it might have the strongest finale ever, last 3-4 episodes or so.
              The problem with the Shield is all the unneccessary sideplots that make it too much of a generic gritty police show.
              The finale in BB is good enough compared to the ovarall quality of the show. Justified had a pretty good ending too and particularly an exceptionally strong final season.

                  Dexter's ending SUCKED. 3/10
                  House's ending was okay, imo. 7/10
                  SFU's ending was very powerful and endlessly rewatchable. 9/10
                  The Shield's final 10 minutes, while low key, was still mind-blowing. A masterpiece of restraint. 9.5/10

                      I think The Shield had the greatest final season and finale of all time.
                      Breaking Bad, Six Feet Under, Psych, Magnum PI, China Beach and Spartacus also had great endings

                        The Shield, Spartacus and Penny Dreadful went out on high notes.

                          Never watched
                          Penny Dreadful
                          , but I agree that
                          Spartacus
                          is one of the only shows that comes close.

                              sucked ass.

                                The ending of Sons of Anarchy sucked ass.
                                I agree.
                                The crescendo of that show for me
                                was when they killed Clay.
                                That whole scene pretty much wrapped everything up. It was never on the level of the Shield; however, I enjoyed the show up to that point.

                                    And the answer is NO! There are a bunch of shows much more superior then the shield. But The shield ending is probably the strongest ending ever (shows movies doesn't matter). And I've seen a lot.
