The best way to ruin a great show is to shove together two individuals who have repeatedly shown to be incompatible, all for a supposedly happy ending. 🙄

The fact that Alex Kerev from Grey’s Anatomy isn’t on here is wild. The writers ruined is exit and his character arch.

As bad as GOT finale might be to some people, it will never equal the abomination that is HIMYM. Least GOT had some characters get endings that fit. HIMYM literally destroyed itself

At least "That 70's Show" itself pointed out how dumb it was for Eric to abruptly leave Donna, all because Topher Grace wanted to pursue a film career. They could have picked a better reason, though fortunately, they're still going strong as of the spinoff show.

Penny having suprise child in last ep was something i really hated. I liked that she did not want children. We already had Bernadette and her storylines about children and pregnancies. I liked that Penny was honest and vocal that being a mother is not something she really wants in her life. Because that was so realistic - many woman just want to live their lives and not have children. And that decision is okay, just like decision to have them. Also, it was great that all three women (Penny, Bernadette and Amy) were different. No just three mothers. I was very, very disappointed when in last minute they gave her pregnancy. It was not like she slowly changed her mind and views and then ended up pregnant. No. it was just last minute - hey, let's give her a child because... why not. It was so out of the character... like if Sex and the city would have decided to give Samantha or Carrie a child in last episode. Same with Rachel. That one was disapointing too. She gave up her dream for...Ross??? Really??? She was dreaming about job like that for forever. She could have been amazing in it. If he loved her so much, he should have for once changed his life for her and move to Paris to be with her, not ask her to throw away her dream. But How i met your mother is the worst. After all seasons and everything that happened to characters... making Ted end up with Robin anyway ruinded the whole show for me. I can't rewatch it because i know it's all pointless, sweet mother character is pointless and it all just ends with shit. If the plan was to still make him end up with Robin... they could just make it a 3 season show and end it. Not make this whole journey, character developments and then... throw it all away. Years have passed but this is still the shittiest ending that i've ever seen on any show i've watched.

HIMYM is the worst ending ever. I refuse to watch any reruns.

I feel like Alex Karev should be on this list. The writers couldn't even give him a proper send off.

HIMYM should have adapted to and abandoned it's original ending. Plenty of show changed things to adapt to new developments abd it work!

I remember being so angry with what they did to Sayid.

How I met your mother started great and then the last season happened and I lost all interests

HiMYM WE WASTED SO MANY ZEASONS AND THEN WE LITERALLY GOT NOTHING FROM IT

Cordelia Chase got hit really hard in Angel seasons 3 and 4. I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned. I mean Buffy did, I get that part, but the Cordy one was just STUPID.

The Ross hate is so ridiculous on this channel. Also “who could’ve predicted Dani’s rampage” umm anybody that was paying attention, I was calling it from season 4 that she was gonna break bad

Seriously, “Penny, giving up on her dreams,“ ruins penny’s character arc?! So she was going nowhere with her fantasy of becoming a famous actress and grew up. Pursued an actual career path, and despite not planning it, discovered an enthusiasm for having a child, and that was a “disservice to a character?“ So I guess miss mojo‘s opinion of staying true to a character is having Penny perpetually engaging in immature fantasy, never moving forward with her life, never doing something more elevated like having a family. What if this show had gone on 20 more years how would that have played? a 45-year-old talking about becoming a famous actress and divorced from Leonard as he’s married some chick 15 years younger than him and made a family with her instead? Hilarious!!

The best way to end himym for those robin and ted fan is to make the next final season after tracys death (but make its plot 15 yrs in the future) to redevelop robin and ted instead of crammin it down our throats half baked and make the final episode focusing on him, his kids, and the gang. Look. I'm all for Robin and Ted shippers but it's a terrible idea to force it down our throat when there's no chemistry there for 7 season. Reason why Ross n Rachel redeveloped so well bc their feelings are resurfaced 5 ep before the last one n it took Rachel moving to Paris to get there

"Who could've predicted Dhaenarys' sudden rampage?"...........Seriously?🤣🤣🤣

Doctor Who, when the Thirteenth Doctor learned she wasn't the thirteenth, but like the 1013th, as the Time Lords had used her as a Jason Bourne-like super-spy, the erased her memories and induced regeneration between missions. So, the fact that the Doctor left Gallifrey to explore the universe and help out when possible wasn't a case of free will, rather a lingering subconscious programming. Then that doozy was topped by the reveal that Rassilon, Omega, and the Other weren't actually the founders of Time Lord civilisation, rather some gardener scientist did it, after she discovered a child who fell from a crack in reality, with the crack leading into what is basically heaven. So, the gardener discovered this god child was capable of infinite regeneration, so reverse engineered the Time Lord regeneration cycle from her. And the final kicker was that the god child was the Doctor, meaning that they have literally never been in danger because they can regenerate from anything and endlessly, unlike the usual Time Lord 12. Oh, and another fun wretched twist was that the surviving Time Lords on Gallifrey were all killed by the Master, off-screen.

Only thing that ruined for me on The Big Bang Theory is that Penny and Bernadette had kids when they clearly stated that motherhood wasn’t for them

I think Penny giving up on acting was a good choice because that dream was very naïve in the first place.
