This has been debated by many for years, but I happen to flip thru the channels and hit an old favorite of mine from back in college.
I would argue this TV show had the most tragic series ending of any long running TV show.
The hero who after saving 100s of lives throughout the run of the series, sacrificed his life time and time again, took the place of his friend to save him, and had only one wish: to return home.
Yet, in the series finale, the writers had him never return to his wife or family and to endlessly be forced to help others forever.
Talking about the show Quarum Leap. The show ends the finale episode with the words
“Sam Becket NEVER returned home”.
