What are some of your personal favorite season finales? Series finales don't count either because I love shows that end with amazing cliffhangers. They can be from any TV show as well, including cartoons and anime.
Personally, my favorites are How I Met Your Mother first season finale and Avatar: The Last Airbender's second season finale.
Both of the endings are so shocking to see happen that it just leaves you dumbfounded, especially A:TLA's when you consider that its still a Nickelodeon show.

Gotta agree with the Last Airbender's second one. Here are the rest off the top of my head:
Fringe: "Over There"
Venture Bros.: "Operation P.R.O.M."
Lost: "Live Together, Die Alone", "Through The Looking Glass", "The Incident" (Though I liked all of the lost finales, even the last episode, these are the ones that stood out to me)

HIMYM. Pretty much every season finale.

I though every season finale of the Sopranos was good {Spoiler}Season 1-This was probably my favorite. You had Tony going after Junior's crew and nearly getting his mother, Junior getting arrested, and Livia having a stroke.
Season 2-you had Tony killing Pussy and later getting arrested for the airline tickets. It is too bad the actress who played Livia died and the airline ticket storyline never got anywhere.
Season 3-you had A.J nearly getting sent to military school and Jackie Jr. getting whacked.
Season 4-Carmella kicks Tony out of the house and after getting to a juror Junior has a mis-trial.
Season 5-Tony finally decides to do what needs to be done toward his cousin and Johnny Sacs gets arrested.
Season 6a-The whole Vito is gay storyline ends
Season 6b-Phil gets taken out and the series ends with an end many do not get.

On the subject of Buffy, The Gift. Which may be one of my favorite episodes of the entire series.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Graduation Day (despite the WB's complete stupidity in delaying the episode a month) The second season of "Chuck" "Guys.......I know Kung-Fu!!!!!!" I prefer season 3's finale. "Sorry, just had to reboot."

You could have one season where the Rangers actually do triumph (like in Zeo, only to be directly followed by a season where the villains score a big victory (ala Turbo).

Lost Season 3 Finale - Through The Looking Glass. Probably my favorite television experience ever.
Supernatural Season 3 Finale - No Rest For The Wicked. Just awesome.

A few of my favorites... It's Garry Shandling's Show, Season 1: When Garry abruptly quits to the lead in a network cop drama, Red Buttons takes Garry's old time slot... And set... And friends. Corner Gas, Season 4: A dead-on parody of the stereotypical sitcom "final episode," complete with sad music and character developments that make entirely, no sense. The fact that the show ran for another two seasons makes it even better. Corner Gas, Season 5: A 24 parody (complete with a Keifer Sutherland cameo) focused around Brent's fortieth birthday, a bottle of scotch, and baking fireworks in an oven. Oh... And I see your Power Rangers and raise you a Mighty Max: To the spoiler tag we go! {Spoiler}Skull Master, aka the villain, thoroughly kicks Max's ass and almost causes the apocalypse. Sure, Max ends up going back in time to the first episode, but the bad guy still wins.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Season 2's finale. This. One of two of the only season finales to make me cry like a wee bitch. The other was the Friends season 10 one.

Lost season 3 got brought up so I shall see your season 3 first time off the island and raise you: Season 1--For three months people wanted to know what was at the bottom of the hatch.
Side bar: Whe season 1 got released on DVD I was teaching at the convoy school in San Antonio(AF guys going to do convoy duty in Iraq at a time that that was pretty dangerous) anyway the guys had a town pass right befiore they left school for the deployment. They stayed up all night watching the whole first season and the next day when I showed up they asked me if the second season had started. When I said yes it had been on for three weeks they asked "what was in the hatch?" I asked in return "Do you really want to know? You leave tomorrow for eight months and will not get to see any of the show. Do you still want to know?" One of about 12 of them asked me because he couldn't wait. He left for Iraq with more questions than answers
