I was nodding in agreement throughout the entire first two paragraphs of this comment. I feel the same exact way. It completely changed the way I look at TV shows and finales. Dexter had an atrocious ending (twice actually, which is impressive, to give it credit), but it wasn't so bad it completely negated my ability to ever appreciate the show moving forward. I've hard a hard time revisting GOT even once since that finale. Truly one of the greatest disappointments of TV history.

The Wire I still haven't seen, but it's been on the watch list for ages now. Thanks for reading, JC!
