Which of This Week's Season Finales Excites You Most?

BuzzSugar — Mon, 11 May 2009 16:30:02 PDT

A few shows have already wrapped up their seasons, but the big season finale push starts tonight with House. For the next two weeks, it's hard to find a weeknight that doesn't have at least one major season finale. Let's start with this week's list: Which show's season finale are you looking forward to most?

TV Tonight: Scrubs and 30 Rock Sign Off for the Season

BuzzSugar — Thu, 08 May 2008 07:30:01 PDT

It seems like just yesterday we were getting our TV shows back, and tonight, a couple of them are leaving us already. Scrubs and 30 Rock have the first finales of this screwy May sweeps period, and both episodes look like they're not to be missed.

First off, Scrubs. It's a curious case right now, anyway, as this should have been the show's series, not season, finale. NBC didn't want to renew the show for another year, and it seemed doomed to end without a proper finale - until ABC, which produces the show, stepped in and said it wanted to air another season itself. The announcement hasn't been officially made yet, but it's expected to come at next week's upfronts. In any case, the show is bidding its farewell to the NBC Thursday night lineup with a blockbuster episode playing homage to The Princess Bride, with some sets and costumes that must have blown the show's budget for a month.

Then, on 30 Rock, Liz Lemon might be pregnant! Well, Floyd and Dennis have both been in town recently . . . Also, Jack officially leaves GE for DC, where he finds things aren't quite what they expected. I'm most excited for the guest stars in this episode, which include Edie Falco reprising her role as CC and Matthew Broderick playing a character named Cooter. It was funny just typing that.

Lost, Grey's Get Bonus Hours to End the Season

BuzzSugar — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 10:34:43 PDT

Lost and Grey's Anatomy are two shows that like to have not just finales, but finale events. And somehow, even in this strike-shortened year, they're still going to manage to pull off super-sized final episodes.

Lost was originally going to air a two-hour finale in May, but then the producers decided they could produce an extra hour - and, according to TV Guide, they convinced ABC that the final two hours had to air together. That meant the finale could no longer fit on the same night with the Ugly Betty and Grey's finales - so it will now air a week later, and Grey's will get to wrap up its season with a two-hour finale, too.

So: On May 15, Ugly Betty, Grey's, and Lost will all air as normal, with Lost showing the first hour of its finale. The next week, the finale of Betty will air along with the two-hour conclusion to Grey's. And then, on May 29, ABC will repeat the first hour of the Lost finale, followed by the two final hours of the show. Whew!

I'm not in love with the idea of taking a week off between the parts of the Lost finale - really, haven't we done enough waiting this season? But if that's what it takes to get more Lost, I suppose I can live with it. And Grey's always does interesting things with its big episodes, so I'm curious to see what they cook up this time. (Hopefully, no shark-jumping ferry deaths. Yeah, still bitter.)

The Biggest Loser Recap: Season 4 Finale!

FitSugar — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 13:45:00 PST

Last night was the season finale of The Biggest Loser and it was a good one. I will say that it was not as amazing as last year's finale, but still pretty darn motivating. While the production was a little off, as it always is, with way too much confetti and delays, I was still totally engrossed.

To see who won as well as a video of the four finalists just

It was no surprise that Bill won this season, especially since most of you guys pinned him as the winner in the poll. He, along with everyone else, looked absolutely fabulous and healthy - even the folks who got voted off early on looked amazing. Was anyone else shocked by how Jerry looked? He really looked super happy. It just goes to show you that it can be done at home. Maybe not so dramatically, but it can be done at home and you can change your habits. Look at Isabeau, she even found so much joy in exercise that she decided to become a personal trainer. How cool is that?

I'm still working at getting my hands on all the before and after pictures, but until then check out the video that shows before and afters of the final four.

Shaq's Big Challenge: Episode Six

FitSugar — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 13:30:00 PDT

Last night on Shaq's Big Challenge we finally got to see the kids after all their hard work and for most of them, it really paid off.

Did you guys watch the finale? Chris (pictured before and after above), the child who lost the most weight, was truly inspiring. He looked so much healthier -- I only wish that his parents, who are obese as well, would have joined him in his health endeavors. ABC asked him what the hardest part of the program was and he replied:

"Getting into a habit of working out. I never used to do that. I would never do exercise all in a row. I would just run around outside. I didn't know how to exercise."

Incredibly wise, I must say. He speaks the truth not just for kids, but for adults as well, one of the hardest parts is getting into the habit. Once you cross that hurdle, it becomes something that is a part of who you are.

Want to see all the kids results? Then

Here are their results:

	Weight at Start	Weight at End
James Pistocchi, 11	182 pounds	157 pounds (lost 25 pounds)
Chris Britto, 11	206 pounds	129 pounds (lost 77 pounds)
Ariel Pittsinger, 14	211 pounds	171 pounds (lost 40 pounds)
Kevin Evans, 13	230 pounds	178 pounds (lost 52 pounds)
Kit Maldanado, 14	263 pounds	236 pounds (lost 27 pounds)
Walter Holleger, 14	285 pounds	221 pounds (lost 64 pounds)

Unfortunately I could not find any "after" pictures, but I will continue to scour the internet for them. Overall, the show was successful, I do wish they offered more tips for obese children but I do think that the message was loud and clear. It will be interesting to see if the Governor of Florida keeps to his decision to make PE in schools mandatory for kids K-5. What'd you think of it?

TV Tonight: The "One Tree Hill" Season Finale

BuzzSugar — Wed, 13 Jun 2007 06:00:00 PDT

The dysfunctional teenagers of "One Tree Hill" are back tonight for one final high school hurrah. Rachel returns to host a graduation party for the senior class, at which all kinds of wackiness is sure to ensue.

Not only is tonight's episode the season finale, it's also our last chance to see "One Tree Hill" the way we've always known it. When the show returns next year for its fifth season, it will be dramatically retooled, jumping four years into the future. Online college diaries will start appearing online in the fall to help fill in the gaps, but that still sounds like a lot of time to skip. What stories would you like to see wrapped up before the four-year leap? To watch a preview for tonight's episode,

TV Tonight: "Dirt" Season Finale With Jennifer Aniston

BuzzSugar — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 10:12:35 PDT

Even if you - like me - haven't really watched "Dirt" since the first episode, tonight's season finale is worth checking out: It brings the long-awaited guest appearance by Jennifer Aniston and, of course, the much-discussed girl-on-girl kiss.

Aniston plays rival editor Tina Harrod to Cox's Lucy Spiller, and one TV reviewer suggests that Jen even upstages her "Friends" co-star. The preview for tonight's show, which airs at 10 p.m. EDT, looks pretty juicy. In one scene, Cox says "You and I were a one-time thing," and Aniston smiles coyly. To watch the promo,

"Friday Night Lights" Season to End in April

BuzzSugar — Tue, 27 Feb 2007 16:00:19 PST

The Dillon Panthers will be wrapping up their march toward the state football championship sooner than we thought. NBC has announced that its new improv comedy series, "Thank God You're Here," will take over the "Friday Night Lights" time slot starting April 18. That means the season finale of "Friday Night Lights" is set for April 11, well before most shows wrap up their seasons. All 22 scheduled episodes will still air, just on a faster timetable than normal.

I'm really not sure what this means for the chances of "Friday Night Lights" getting a second season. Off the top of my head, I can't think of any other shows that have bowed out before the crucial May Sweeps period and still gotten renewed. But NBC also just announced that it will be streaming all "FNL" episodes online this spring; maybe they hope that will give potential viewers another chance to get hooked before the fall?

Either way, if you're a fan and you haven't sent your care package to NBC yet, this is probably a good time to do it.

What Did You Think of the Revenge Season Finale?

Maggie Pehanick — Thu, 24 May 2012 09:59:28 PDT

I'm still reeling from the first season finale of Revenge. Though I've been following the show since day one, my allegiance had slipped a little in the past few weeks because the plot seemed to be straying - until this week's episode. Color me happily surprised! At first, I thought the big shocker was when Amanda shows up . . . pregnant! I knew as soon as Victoria gets out of the limo and approaches the plane that something is amiss, then when the white-haired man shows up, I think we all knew that plane was going down. Then Charlotte overdoses, and in case that's not enough for you, Emily's mom is still alive! It's like a series of little brain bombs! Are you as impressed as I am with the way season one ends? Will you be tuning in next season?
