From the generational collapse of Game of Thrones to Larry David's attempt to rewrite Seinfeld's ending inside Curb Your Enthusiasm, they track how shows stick the landing or crash spectacularly. Hear why controversial doesn't always mean bad, how IMDB scores tell the real story, and which finales people are still arguing about decades later.
