Rocksa (sorry for responding this way the quoting was a bit much).
To be honest I think Desert Punk existed largely to tell a specific story about the "Punk" and his ups and downs. Through the entire series your sort of expecting him to turn around and become something of a hero, but he never really does, and actually becomes a villain.
Truthfully, the central conflicts involved in the backround of that series were beyond the scope of anyone involved to really resolve. The story was extremely character-centric and it pretty much got to where it was going.
Now, it CAN be said that it was depressing since our friend "The Ghost Of The Desert" starts out as a perverted, reprehensible, money grubbing scumbag... and pretty much ends
up the same exact way, but his involvement does wind up inspiring a lot of people to become heroes even if he himself not only remains a villain, but moves up the rung a few spaces.
Just not that kind of story, especially seeing as the entire thing is basically a comedy/post apocolyptic satire, and what a sleaze he is, is the constant punchline.
A "happy" ending would have involved someone putting a bullet between his eyes, but that wouldn't have really fit the series.

Yeah I knew that, which is why it was the worst finale in my mind, it was a non-finale, which is lame.Singularly Datarific said:

Futurama's ending made me MAD!!! Mostly because it ended. Best animated series imho.Stegofreak said:
I'm the only person who liked it, though as an episode and not as a finale. It was a good finale for what they could do. They shouldn't have cancelled it.Mrsnugglesworth said:
And only one person mentioned Evangelion. Thought that would have been all over the place.
I swear I heard somewhere that they've announced two telemovies, just so you know. Other than that, I don't know much about it.Klagermeister said:
Here's to hoping that they'll have something to do with both Koh the Face Stealer (who got less than 3 minutes of screen time, but was supposed to be an important character) and Zuko's Mum.
And what else was bad about the finale? I thought everything about it was pure, unadultered awesome.
Farscape. Sure, the movie did offer some closer but it felt like it should have had another season. I mean, they introduced a character (Which I think you were meant to get attached to, he was innocent and all that) and he died even before it was halfway through...
Dare I say that Brock is meant to be the cockblock. Without him it would have been a guy and a girl out on a journey... And that just screams romantic interest.psypherus said:
Hmm, heard that episode 23 was the series finale of The Big Bang Theory Season 2 which is annoying. Leonard and Penny story just hotting up.
Say what? That's not how it ended - A borg ship appeared, the federation tensed up, then Voyager burst out from inside it, destroying it in the process.mtk2a said:
