plenty to choose from but I think the Veep finale stands alone - at least to me! - as it's so flawless it manages to somehow retrospectively elevate the whole series, and give it more depth than you'd maybe assumed while watching it
Given that apparently the Stranger Things finale was meh (idk, didn't watch it, just the scuttlebutt) and we're not that far removed from the disastrous GOT finale that retroactively made everyone have never cared about the show:
What's the *best* ending to a show you've ever seen? Quote/reply etc

I will make an impassioned case for Veep's final season being it's overall finest to anyone willing to listen (not enough people)

Intellectually I understand that the Championship is itself an increasingly lucrative global business now etc but no I’m sorry, it is always going to be deeply surreal to have an American channel advertising their coverage of the big 26 December matchup of Birmingham vs Derby County

I actually think it's bad that the law thinks that calling a 17 year old a "sissy porn-watching scumbag", a "groomer" and a "disgusting incel" in public is not a crime, and indeed I do not think criticising this would constitute "[picking] sides in the debate about sex and gender identity".

If she’d ended up, say, detransitioning they absolutely would have referred to her as a vulnerable child. You wouldn’t be allowed to forget how young she is.
the bbc coining the phrase "teenage trans woman" in their coverage of the linehan case is driving me insane. it's so subtly revealing
