Without getting into spoilers.

Supernatural... bit of a shaggy dog plot this season. A pretty big anti-climax but a pretty cool cliff-hanger for next season. I still wish the show would get better (or worse so I can give up on it), but it continues to drag me back into hell again and again.

Castle... oh, thank Christ, no finale involving the murder of Beckett's mother. The ending could be one of those classic shark-jumping moments, although since the great bulk of the show is about Castle being amusing in the middle of homicide investigations and not so much about the chemistry he has with Beckett probably not a shark-jumping moment. I shall continue to watch it because it's on.

Last night's Office finale was the first episode I've watched in years. Lots of characters I didn't recognize.

I enjoyed it, but found it more heartwarming than funny, and certainly change my opinion that the show was on the air at least 3 years too long.

I just started watching Supernatural this season, though I haven't seen the finale. I'm liking it so far even though some of the plots are dodgy and I have the impression that it should be a better show.

I'm thinking of starting from the beginning.

Oh, you have to start from the beginning. The first 5 seasons are great.

The office tried to do way too much.

Supernatural has been a bit unfocused since the 5th season finale which was originally meant to be the series finale. The core formula is good enough to carry it but where the Lucifer story unfolded over the fives years, they seem to be lurching about trying to find a good hook for the real finale. Think I can guess (especially with that cliffhanger) but there's not a sense the stories are building toward that.

Arghh my dvr fritzed out and I missed both Arrow's & Supernatural's finales. :evil:

Vampire Diaries overall season was great, with the penultimate episode being one of the best. But the season finale was weak. It had some good moments but as a whole it let the year out with a whimper. Though I did find the cliffhanger very suspensful.

Man, I thought this was going to be about great TV finales of the past.

Remember when the Romulan lady in shadow turned out to be Tasha Yar????

Is Arrow worth watching? I haven't heard much buzz about it. Not even here.

It started ok, had a lull and then started to get much better. The island flashbacks were really bad in the beginning but eventually get really good too. It's not must watch TV for me and sometimes a bit too soap opera like but it's worth a watch.

Having said all that, I'm 2 episodes back so maybe the finale sucked :)

Also, I like girls in glasses and she wears glasses very well.

We didn't know that until the season premiere that happened next fall.

This is a thread about season finales, not premieres. English your second language?
