Most CASTLE followers have theorized that, since the actress playing Beckett was "fired" from the show (had the show signed off for a 9th season, which was still under consideration at the time of that news), Beckett would've died from her wounds, while Castle would've survived his and spent the next season tracking down her killer. Probably all the better it ended there.

Canonically that couldn't have happened (because they somehow established in the time-traveler episode that she will become a senator and they'll have two kids together) but they'd have to put her in hiding. Honestly, all they had to do was cut out the seasonal cliffhanger and it would've been fine. That's what they SHOULD have done. But they didn't. And so here we are.

I honestly feel like they should have filmed several scripted alternate endings and filmed them all at the same time. Even if they never got used, it would keep Lyndsy Fonseca and David Henrie from being able to spoil the ending (because who knows which one it really was?) and they could use them as an out to steer their show towards other directions if the one they wanted to work with wouldn't work after seven more seasons. As it didn't. Quite frankly I always thought the best way they could have handed it would've been to introduce the mother in like Season 5 and then unofficially retitle the show Now I Met Your Mother.

Yes and it wasn't the final episode, per se. It was the second of three TV movies that aired AFTER the series final episode. The series ended in the spring of 1983. Three subsequent TV movies aired during the following 2 seasons and in the second one is when they blew up the town. The third was a Christmas themed movie that aired the season after the 2nd movie but chronologically in time occurred before the 2nd movie

The problem with HIMYM suffered from 3 problems 1. It went on for too long 2. The ending was planned in advance but not the middle which they filled with this Robin and Ted will never be togeather and ruined the pay off along with the fact that Ted was in a holding pattern for the better part of 5 seasons which made him all the more insufferable. 3. Cristin Milioti VASTLY overperformed her role as Tracy and made us love in as much as the regulars (It's probably no concidence the 200th episode is the highest rated of the show). So with an over long show which didn't plan on going so long with a planned finale which they had to use as footage for luke and penny had already been shot it was kinda always damned.

Yeah, the show was basically overburdened with awesome and they didn't realize how good the cast chemistry was until it was far too late. Then they rolled like thirty nat-20s by casting Christin Miloti as the mother, which again worked against them because who knew you could be too lovable, particularly if you were planning on killing them off? It's not like they didn't foreshadow it--many of us, myself included, took copium, particularly in the episode with Future Ted and Future Barney--but it didn't make it hurt any less.

The cast asked to insert a few scenes to give closure to the audience (without changing the depressing ending) but that creator (who had agreed) had them edited out. The storylines etc just didn’t make sense and the whole thing was just a depressing mess.

The Enterprise finale and cancellation happened for a few reasons. Cast and crew put the cancellation down to a few things; franchise burnout after variations of the show had been going for 17 years. Fewer people were watching TV after 9/11, which also damaged Dharma and Greg's ratings. And the introduction of Netflix and streaming services altered how people watched their TV, which also reduced ratings. Their show was also on a network that did not traditionally carry the show and basically got nervous when the numbers started going down. The finale turned out the way it did because the show was cancelled within a few weeks of the show's finale, which meant two or three seasons of plot points suddenly needed to be included to reach what was always going to be the show's end game: the founding of the Federation. Shran, the Andorian frenemy played by the great and good Jeffrey Combs, was to have joined the crew, and Trip would not have been killed off. The finale was designed as a way to pay tribute to everything the Enterprise crew wrought, but was not received as the writers intended. Source: The Shuttlepod Show featuring Connor Trineer and Dominic Keating.

@@susanscott8653 There were definitely other issues, scheduling being one of them. fans also rebelled against the opening theme being an actual song, no matter how appropriate; they beleived every Star Trek property should have a purely instrumental theme, which they seem to have acknowledged over the years. I think the biggest issue was stuff everyone had taken for granted for 17 years, all the technology we saw in TNG, DS9 and Voyager, were suddenly gone, which I'll admit I found oddly jarring until I realized it made perfect sense. It had the same effect though as the Lothlorien Elves turning up in the Battle of Helm's Deep in The Two Towers; it was impossible for such a thing to have happened, but because it wasn't a part of established lore, fans were dirty on the idea. It could even be that the portrayal of the Elves, sorry I mean Vulcans, were an influence, as said portrayal showed them in a much darker light than what we were used to. I suppose we should be glad the original idea, that of the entire first season focusing on getting into space and thus set entirely on Earth, never came to pass.

The "framing device" for HIMYM makes a lot of sense in reality. Why else would he be telling the kids the story of their alive mother? It's just that by the end of the series Ted & Robin didn't make sense at all. Add to that that everyone loved Cristin Milioti as the mother and we barely got to know her and then the pull the rug out from us. They should have realized that it didn't make sense anymore and gone with the alternate cut of the finale where she lives. Finale would have still been meh and rushed because they tried to jam too much into one episode but I think more people would have been happy with the happy ending.

That is a thought experiment by Dwayne McDuffie (comic writer) showing the absurdity of comic fans obsession with canon through the lens of this tv show. It’s not supposed to be taken seriously, quite the opposite.

I was not happy with the How I Met Your Mother finale. I still don't like how they did it, but I respect the choice. It wasn't about a fairytale. It was about life. Sometimes you lose the love of your life, & you still have to survive. It was about grief, finding beauty in it, & moving on.

Really? The people of Castle was surprised they weren't renewed for another season? It was known by everybody that Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic hated each other guts, and they wanted to get out of the show or the other one to get fired, they had less and less screen time together with each season and i'm pretty sure they made a lowkey backdoor pilot in an episode about Castle in LA with another police lady. Everybody knew the show was ending soon, they should have ended it properly and they made another "it was a dream or not" ending that everyone hated. Thank god i had stopped watching it a couple seasons before, i would've been so mad!

Actually it was plausible. I watched the show every week when it aired. ABC CONFIRMED, not rumored, it would be back for a Season 9 without Stana. Probably focus on Castle as he was becoming a private detective. That one is just a guess on my part. But then ABC backed out. Doesn't explain why the show felt they had to tack on that epilogue scene. Only that the show's future was back and forth.

still very dissapointed with the finale of Enterprise and Voyager. Enterprise finale revealed the entire series was little more then Riker and Troi having a movie night watching a star trek version of a historical documentary. and Voyager's ending pretty much deleted any and all reason to care for anything that happened for half the series, all hardships and sacrifice they went through for pretty much half of the series, gone, half of my investment in teh series, they took a big steaming shit on. in HIMYM, Ted and Robin have essentially zero chemistry together, it really should have ended with him and their mother sitting down at the sofa in their home together, telling their kids the story, or even have them be in the hospital around their mothers bed as she is very sick or somerthing, and in a epilogue showing Lilly and Marshal with their kids and first grandchild, and Barny and Robin happily married also having kids together, with Barney of course, being some serious top dog millionair working with FBI on another sting on another shady big time bank or womething.

Or the station hates the show, axes it prematurely and forces the writers to come up with an ending on the fly. Better some type of finale than none at all. I remember the finale of "Without A Trace". It was a normal episode but the final scene was recut where the two main characters discuss how everything ends in a conversation. Fans were angry at this, saying that they should be shown how things played out, not told. Series star Anthony LaPaglia came out in defence of the writers and blasted the studio. He said that they were promised another season where events played out, but then the studio backflipped and axed it instead. The final scene was an attempt to tie up loose ends. It was unsatisfactory but it was either that, or no resolution at all. Fans should hold TV stations more responsible, as few shows end on their own terms, so many finales are thrown together, and many shows never have a finale at all.
