I like the ending. It’s probably the most shocking thing in tv history. I remember watching it live and everyone thought their cable box had gone down.
I’m not sure how you go about ending a show of that breadth so being weird about it is fine with me. It’s also an incredibly well done scene. Meadow being late. Playing Journey which shouldn’t work but does. I remember being on the edge of my seat that Sunday night.
I get people not liking it as it is a bit of a cop out. But nobody ever forgets it.
Will say the ending of Six Feet Under is incredible. The Wire was meh despite them being really good at closing montages (season 2, specifically). The Shield, while stupid to some, has a gut-wrenching last episode. Oh! Generation Kill. The closing episode with them watching the video and the Johnny Cash song….so well done.
EDIT:
