Hated Tropes (Hated Trope) TV endings so awful it completely ruins rewatchability of the entire show.

Game of Thrones - Entire season 8 and finale completely ruins the entire narrative and show ends in the worst way possible. It kills desire to rewatch the show.

How I Met Your Mother - Show ends such awful they kill the... the mother. After spending years growing into a loyal partner and father, he instantly reverted to his old womanizing behavior after his divorce. Also he ends up with robin randomly.

The Boys - While not as bad as GOT but the worst aspect is the cheap Vought Rising spin-off tease, pointless storylines and rushed ending which leaves a sour taste. Despite hitting the right points... it feels cheap and not satisfying.

We tried to rewatch the series again (never finished it). But we ended up losing interest after Glen dies. Same thing happened years ago.

I kinda just want to see a supercut of the last seasona.

Because he’s the only character with any redeeming qualities! Everyone else with them dies, then Glenn dies too and it’s just like “okay what’s the fucking point of watching this then?”

daryl.

he more or less becomes the main character in the last couple seasons and the show does become better for it. i'd say the last 2 seasons are not too bad, even if they don't reach the highs of earlier seasons.

that said, i did also put down the show after glenn. took me like 5 years to pick it back up lmao
