10 TV Finales That Made You Embarrassed You Ever Cared
1. Lost - The End
The magnum opus of "WTF!" television of the early 2000's came in the form of the castaway cult show Lost. Little over a decade ago the show ended and fans collectively agreed on two things that would define the series;
It was 100% cuckoo crazy, and it's ending was thunderously dreadful.
For years fans had speculated on what the Island represented and what was so significant about the survivors of the plane crash. The answers were eagerly awaited in the finale, only for it all to mean nothing, and instead collapse into itself and be about a literal cork in the island that when pulled, would cause a volcanic eruption.
A volcanic eruption from taking out a stone cork?!
Perhaps the biggest insult to learn about the show was that the writers literally had no idea what they were doing and were throwing in crazy plot twists just to see what would stick. Perhaps fans had their own theories and were sore that theirs didn't match up? Or maybe all that build-up just meant nothing, and recommending the show now just feels embarrassing.
Either way, the series deflated itself like a popped balloon the minute the show revealed elements of Purgatory and ancient radiation.
