Spoiler Alert: TV Finales That Made Fans Furious
Gilmore Girls
Okay, this one is a little tricky, because technically it has had TWO season finales. After some behind the scenes disagreements with the studio, Gilmore Girls writers Amy Sherman Padallino and Daniel Padallino left the show, resulting in one awful final season. Fans were not happy with the way the season played out, and especially unhappy with how it ended.
Padallino always said she knew in detail how the series was supposed to end, right down to the last three words. The idea that the show had ended not in the way it was supposed to added to the hype of how terrible the finale was.
Hearing the years worth of complaints from fans, Netflix decided to get involved with Padallino to give fans the finale they deserved, and in 2016, the revival aired.
It was exactly what you would expect from a revival and it ended with a cliffhanger. Yes, it turns out Padallino’s big finale for all these years was a cliffhanger left up to the viewer to determine the outcome.
In fairness, while the plan was always to end with the cliffhanger, there have been rumors of a second revival, so we will see. Gilmore Girls may be back for another series finale soon enough.
