3. The Good Place

5. The Americans

 "They'll be okay." "They'll remember us." "It feels strange." "(In Russian) We'll get used to it."

FX / Via buzzfeed.com

"The Americans has been one of the only shows I have watched from start to finish and I was happy with both the overall series and the ending. The ending was done in a way that simultaneously wrapped up the story for all of the major characters and also left enough 'unknowns' for a healthy amount of speculation."
u/PPKA2757

6. Fleabag

Andrew Scott and Phoebe Waller-Bridge as their characters in "Fleabag" share an intimate and emotional moment on a nighttime street

9. The Wire

Dominic West's character finds John Doman's character in a parked car and says, "Larry?" John responds, "Let's go home," with a cityscape in the background

10. Band Of Brothers

11. M*A*S*H

12. Superstore

13. Scrubs

A scene from the TV show "Scrubs" featuring Zach Braff as J.D. reflecting on the past and future, with flashbacks of significant moments including a wedding

14. Brooklyn Nine-Nine

15. Bojack Horseman

BoJack Horseman, an anthropomorphic horse in a suit, and an annoyed woman with glasses and a ponytail are in front of a starry night sky.

"The fact that Bojack didn’t get some magic redemption and the way his relationship landed with Diane makes it feel so much more real."

17. Better Call Saul

"Arguably better than Breaking Bad, or could be considered the true final ending of Breaking Bad, really. It completed the trio of possible outcomes for the main characters: die, escape, and capture."

21. Blackadder

u/Mackem101

22. And finally, The Office

Pam Beesly says, "I think an ordinary paper company like Dunder Mifflin was a great subject for a documentary." Michael Scott points to a painting and replies, "There's a lot of beauty in ordinary things." Pam says, "Isn't that kind of the point?"

NBC / Via buzzfeed.com

"You know, The Office got a lot of hate for its later seasons, but the finale was so sweet and endearing. I really, REALLY appreciated that the writers knew that we really cared about the characters and wanted to see things work out for them."
