I have noticed that this years season finales of my favorite shows has had a particularly good run this year. So I just wanted to take some time to discuss them. Surprisingly most of them are all first timers in their finales, but left me at the edge of my seat. And the rest are my old favorites.
WARNING BEYOND THESE WORDS THERE BE SPOILERS. READ AT YOUR OWN NON CARING.
Revenge- This was my surprise love of this year. I remember EW's special ad in the magazine and thought that it was a tired concept. Rich people and backstabbing and plotting. Boy was I wrong. I could easily rate this season finale along with The Vampire Diaries'. And I am so glad that it's coming back for another season. They ended it perfectly, I was wondering how this show would maintain longevity, but they sure managed it. With the explosion and Emily wanting to find out more about her mother and suicide attempts. It's all so soapy and delicious.
Supernatural- Whew, my time old fave has had two really up and down seasons. I almost find myself wishing it had ended when the Kriptkeeper left. But then we would have missed out on some really good gems that these last two seasons gave us. The one thing about the show that really bugs me is Cas. I do not like this new crazy, tree hugger Cas. And I'm really hoping now that he and Dean are in Purgatory he's back to normal. I liked Evil Cas more than this.
Anyways, not much to say about the finale, Bobby truly crosses over, or at least I think he does. I really don't see this show killing off a character that has been around as long as the boys themselves. Sam and Dean manage to kill Dick. The whole human factory-Solyent Green thing just wasn't floating my boat. IDK, I don't think we're THAT oblivious. Anyways killing Dick opened a worm hole or something and sent Dean and Cas to Purgatory. Then Crowley-I wish they could decide what to do with him sometime-laughs at Sam and says he's all alone now, and he has the profit. I don't really care about this profit either. GIVE US CHUCK BACK! If we're talking about profits. But, like a good fan girl, I'll follow this show to the grave, just because, it was once awesome.
The Vampire Diaries- Elena's a vamprie now. Done. Awesome.
Oh and Alaric's dead. Waaaaaaaaah!
Bones- Another show that seems to be suffering from age. And what bothers me the most is that it had something super awesome with this season. And they just let it drop! Total frustration! Pelant is the most interesting thing since Gormegon, before they had to rush the season finale.
Pelant plants evidence implicating Bones in a murder. So keep herself off the books and out of the system, her runs with Christine leaving Booth behind looking like the saddest puppy dog, since Supernatural season 2 when Dean was crying over Sam the first time he died. Pelant also messes with something in Booth and Bones' house. Very curious. And looking forward to how they resolve this.
Once Upon a Time- Out of all the season finales I saw in these last weeks, this would be my least favorite. I'm not saying I didn't like it, I did. But it followed the most predictable formula. It ends with everyone remembering, and Rumpelstiltskin releasing magic.
Grimm- This was another surprising finale that I loved. I am dying to know what happened to Juliet. I thought they were going to kill her off when she refused the proposal, but this is much better. Can't wait to see what happens with that. I also love Nick's freaky awesome fighting skills. And I also want to know what the heck the Captain is. He hasn't shown himself yet, just waiting for the moment when he does. I'm thinking he might be a Reaper? Anyways, also looking forward to seeing where this show goes. And I must give it props for not only surviving Friday death night, but succeeding. And maybe I just might have to go up and be an extra sometime. LOL
So, there you have it. The best finales I have seen this season. And I am now eagerly waiting for next fall! But first take the time to enjoy SYTYCD and Master Chef.

My issue with the Once Upon a Time finale is that they seemed to be trying to fit a ton of things into one show, when it would have been fine without it. The scene with Rumpelstiltskin releasing the magic felt so unnecessary to me, and the show still would have ended fine without it!
I know, I loved the whole dragon part, and the kiss making everyone remember. I don't think they needed that scene either. In my opinion, it would have been a great way to end the first episode of season two.
