Mad Men at the top of the list. Reasons:

1. Very few, if any, saw it coming
2. It didn’t insult anyone’s intelligence. In fact, it took some reflection to really understand how brilliant it was
3. The characters had very satisfying, consistent, and/or believable endings

Also, Scrubs, Breaking Bad, Justified, and Fringe

And honorable mention in that the original series finale was supposed to be season 5 - Supernatural. That was probably the GOAT but not a true series finale

If we're going with intended series finales...

Justice League Unlimited had an amazing series ending with the revelation of the Luthor/Brainiac team, and the sense that Flash's destined death was needed to defeat them. Then they followed up with the Batman Beyond Epilogue episode that harkened back to the first episode of Batman The Animated Series and brought the entire DCAU to a close.

Then they found out they were renewed for another season, and came up with an equally astounding finale season, culminating with Superman and Darkseid's final confrontation, and Superman's amazing "I feel like I live in a world made of cardboard" speech.

Man the show should have ended here. That 5 series arc was an all time great for sure. I can’t believe they are hanging on for 15 seasons!

I haven’t watched since season 7 I think, but the premise of the final season with all the monsters from previous seasons back and Chuck (god) as the final bad guy might get me to watch it

It’s funny reading this after being on this board when the finale happened and multiple posters melted all the way the frick down over the finale.

I enjoyed it. But man, there were some that hated it.
