I was dissapointed by the ending to Unbreakable, I was expecting (due to the film being Directed by M. Night Shymalallalalaalallaman, who had some credit to his name at the time)an amazing twist, perhaps I built it up too much, but I was dissapointed.
Donnie Darko also has a terrible ending, once again I was expecting a twist but was rewarded with pretentious crap.
The Green Mile makes the list, the ending wasn't bad but my god did I hate the old people in that film. If you can watch that old woman say "He Infected you...with life?" without feeling the urge to kill her, her family and everyone she has ever known, then I owe you a coke.

I always thought that Angel (1999 - 2004) had a really terrible ending and a disappointing final season. Season 3 was simply epic with the return of Darla and Holzt and Wesley being exiled, and the entire theme of season 4 was very unique and interesting. Season 5 had potential when Angel moved into Wolfram & Hart, but that was largely pissed away when they went back to the simple one episode plot lines like the first season, and the last two episodes were just poorly executed and half assed.
Really, it all went downhill when they killed Lilah.
Angel is one of my favourite shows, but man the ending was a let down.

It didn't help being suddenly cancelled, which I think might be renamed "Joss Whedon Disease." There has been talk of doing a movie to wrap everything up. Season 5 I loved- Spike was back, the episode Smile... but yeah, the ending was a bit "Oh. Thats it? Crap."Maet post=18.69868.684421 said:
I never actually knew how far into the season they were when they found out they were being canceled. There was a lot of material left to be explored when they got the axe which is unfortunate.
I didn't love season five as much as three and four, mainly because it felt like overt buffy-verse fan service at that point. There were some good individual episodes (the Halloween Party for example), but for the most part I found it to be a jumbled love letter.

The ending of scrubs was terrible. First they fire one of the main characters, then he comes back two episodes later. Now I here they're making another season but how, they burned almost all their bridges. Most of the characters are married and the "boss" got fired.
I'm gonna have to go for Hancock too. Really enjoyed the first half, the second half just got gradually worse, and the ending made me so disappointed.
I thought the last episode of Stargate SG-1 was pretty anti-climactic.
It wasn't really bad, just a bad way to end it.

I think Firefly was a amazing show but the ending they had was abrupt and worse was that the show finally ended,Though the movie tried to wrap things up it still felt more like a funeral for the show in the way it just tied to close up the lose ends but at the same time it felt sad it had to do it all in 2 hours rather being able to take the time to end it in another season.
I dont know if anyone else watched the Marie Antoinette movies starring Kirtsen Dunst, but I did and knowing just a little about her it pissed me off how they ended before they got to the juicy stuff. Like when she went on trial and was beheaded... I believe I swore when the end credits rolled on out.
How so? The Prisoner is one of the greatest series ever made the ending is still being discussed today, near enough fourty years after it's screening and that to me isn't a cop out. The series has a cyclical nature. I shall say no more for fear of ruining it for everyone.BallPtPenTheif post=18.69868.680481 said:

I thought it was the Sky remake that never got made with Christopher Ecclestone, the ITV series I thought was going to have Jesus and Gandalf in it, Jim Caviziel and Sir Ian McKellan.The_root_of_all_evil post=18.69868.708774 said:
