ROTW - The Most Shocking/Surprising TV Series Finales

12 Oct 2013

Share on Reddit
Hey All,

We're introducing a new weekly feature here at SpoilerTV in association with Ranker.

Each week we hope to post an interesting discussion topic that allows you to rank all the options provided as well as allowing you to enter your own options if you think it's relevant.

Below is the ranking widget which allows you to select the options that you like (Thumbs up) and to downvote those you don't (Thumbs down). There is also the option to add your own selection, it's the large blue "Add It" button.

So for our first "Rank of the Week", we're asking you to rank "The Most Shocking/Surprising TV Series Finales"

So use the widget below to select your Thumbs Ups and Thumbs downs. If you have no opinion on one of the options, you simply don't select either Thumb. And don't forget to let us know which ones you selected in the comments below.

We hope you enjoy this feature.

    I'm trying to add Fringe, but it's not staying on the list. I add it and it goes on, but then I reload the page and it's gone off the list...

    ReplyDelete
  16. DarkUFO10 October 2013 at 19:39

    I think there may be a delay as it's probably quite busy currently.


    Give it a few mins and hopefully it will appear.

    Should be there now.

    There is a delay between adding one and it appearing. Give it 5 mins and hit refresh. It seems the servers are very busy

    ReplyDelete
  25. patriotfall10 October 2013 at 19:46

    It will take a few minutes for it to appear on the list. Probably a lot of people adding shows at the same time so it's slowing down.

  41. Ben10 October 2013 at 20:08

    Yeah I don't think it's correct for me either, since it's showing for me that Fringe has 20 ups, and only 4 downs but it's all the way towards the bottom. Doesn't seem right.

  42. DarkUFO10 October 2013 at 20:10

    Sorting should be fixed now.

    i tried too add it but when i wrote angel i didnt find it ( i dont mean on this list but the list that you have to search tv show after pressing add it, i didnt find it on that list)

    ReplyDelete
  50. Babar Suhail10 October 2013 at 20:32

    I think that means someone already added it and it will show on the list soon.

    If it can't find your show, at the bottom of the popup will be a button to add it manually.

    ok :)

  53. TrueBlue10 October 2013 at 20:34

    I added Scrubs. It didn't have a shocking or surprising series finale [season 8 finale is the real series finale for Scrubs fans] but it was hugely satisfying and moving.

  54. aleksander10 October 2013 at 20:34

    when i vrote angel, the results where angelina jolie and jessica alba and other persons

    You should still see a button at the bottom like in this example.

  61. cirithungol10 October 2013 at 20:50

    What was shocking about the Breaking Bad finale? It went pretty much how everyone expected :s


    The Shield was far more shocking, if only for Shane's final scenes.

    Go Friends!
    Erika having twins was really surprising, though everyone knew that Ross and Rachel would get back together. The foosball table being busted by Monica was also surprising.

  64. inhighheels10 October 2013 at 21:01

    As much as I liked BrBa, there is no way I can not vote for The Sopranos. Out of nowhere, cut to black, the end. What's more surprising than that?

    ReplyDelete
  65. Babar Suhail10 October 2013 at 21:01

    You can vote for multiple shows.

  66. SharpFangs10 October 2013 at 21:03

    I think Breaking Bad's finale had some scenes that were predictable, and some scenes that were unpredictable.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Ben10 October 2013 at 21:04

    You could upvote every show on the list if you wanted to, there's no limit to the voting.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Ben10 October 2013 at 21:09

    I think the reason it's so high on the list is probably because the it's finale was the most recent one out of the whole list of shows, so it's fresher in peoples minds.

    ReplyDelete
  69. laura334110 October 2013 at 21:11

    What shocked and surprised me was NBC cancelling Life On Mars.Couldn't they make a 2 hour movie of the week so we could find out who the hell killed his wife? LoL,that annoyed me to no end..


    The ending of Fringe didn't shock or surprise me,i was expecting that to happen.It just gutted me,and to this day i cannot talk about it that's how hard i took the show ending.I'm still in mourning.



    Mash not only shocked me it depressed the hell out of me,and i cried so hard for Henry.


    I'm not even sure if i fully understand (I think i do but?) everything in LOST? It seems everytime i rewatch I get hit with something i didn't see the last time...I love Lost..


    And the Sopranos definitely shocked and surprised me.My cousin was in the Sopranos and he told me i would be shocked but i wasn't expecting them to BOOM,cut to black! Great freaking show!!!

  75. Wilson Crawford10 October 2013 at 21:22

    My selections: Damages, Breaking Bad, Veronica Mars, Fringe.
    Damages for me is probably the series the had the best finales every season...even a subpar season paid off immensely in unbelievable ways and always left me in awe of what had just happened...


    I feel this question works against BrBa in the sense that their huge moments and their crazy twists don't mostly take place in finales so much as whenever it organically fits in the story (see "Ozymandias").

    ReplyDelete
  76. Freda10 October 2013 at 21:22

    I was surprised by Fringe - I thought that they would have found someway to keep Walter in their time period. But it made sense that Walter had to disappear - because otherwise they still could have kept fighting Fringe events. The rest of it wasn't all that shocking.

  77. aleksander10 October 2013 at 21:24

    did you write your cousin was in the, show ?, is he a big actor ?

  78. laura334110 October 2013 at 21:29

    Yes,my cousin was in the show,he played Carlo Gervasi. He has been in a lot of shows and movies if you mean is he a famous actor like a Brad Pitt,then i would say no.

    ReplyDelete
  79. aleksander10 October 2013 at 21:32

    yes i meant that :) so it is cool to have an cousin who play in tv shows? :) it would be a big dream of mine to have an role in a tv show, that would be verry cool.

  94. V_s11 October 2013 at 15:29

    I'm really confused by the current poll results. If this was a ranker for "favorite" series finales, it would make more sense to me. But since it's a ranker for "most surprising/shocking" instead, I don't understand how Breaking Bad is as high as it is or Dexter is as low as it is, for example. Yeah, Breaking Bad's finale was great and Dexter's was kind of terrible, but Breaking Bad's was extremely safe and predictable. Dexter's was easily more shocking, and not in a good way (though the ranker isn't asking us to distinguish between a good shock and a bad one).

  95. Setheriel11 October 2013 at 16:24

    I think most people are ignoring the "most surprising/shocking" part and just voting for shows they like.

  98. laura334113 October 2013 at 00:30

    I don't know what happened when you added them but they didn't show up on the list so i put them in and now they are on the board.

    Fun, but my goodness several series where I don't remember the finales let alone how I felt about them. Fun feature though!

    With the extra miniseries they added i think it ended perfectly. The only thing I would have loved would have been to focus a bit more on earth.

    Lost, Fringe and Chuck (that beach scene was sad and shocking for me).


    Breaking Bad was great and correct, but not shocking or surprising.

    Fringe was shocking and great, Dexter was shocking in how terrible it was; and Chuck was surprising not only how it ended (although I did enjoy the ending), but also in how emotionally it resonated with me. (The beach scene gets me every time.)
