Oh my gosh, have you seen the finale of “Parks and Recreation”? 🌳🏞️ It is hands down the most wholesome TV show finale I’ve ever seen! The way they tie up all the loose ends and show where each character ends up is just so heartwarming. I mean, who wouldn’t feel all warm and fuzzy inside seeing Leslie and Ben thriving in their careers and raising their family in Pawnee, or watching Ron Swanson finally find fulfillment in his woodworking and reconnecting with his old friends? It’s just the perfect ending to a wonderful show. And don’t get me started on that time jump – so cool to see how everything plays out in the future! If you haven’t watched it yet, you’ve got to check it out. It will definitely leave you with a big, goofy smile on your face. #FeelGoodTV #HappyEndings
Maybe not the *most* but Superstore had a really uplifting ending. Everyone’s arc ended on a good note.
The Good Place
Scrubs.
That last season that didn’t happen doesn’t count.
Newhart
Boy Meets World, gets me every time
Hapy Days
So glad it ended with a Joanie – loves – Chachi wedding.
For modern times, Brooklynn Nine-Nine. The last moment between Peralta and Holt was so good.
Superstore!
Sopranos. A family man finally gets together and has dinner with his family and lives happily ever after.
Dinosaurs
/s
Futurama. All four of them
Parks and Rec was almost wholesome overload
Gravity Falls
The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. C’mon, it opened with [Keep Banging on Your Drum](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bknt00olZ0Q) filled with a ton of celebrity cameos, including Betty White and DESMOND TUTU!!
superstore had many episodes that they could’ve gotten away with ending on, but they achieved almost perfection with the finale truly tying everything together from start to finish
*King of the Hill*. Bobby finally grills with Hank. He asks, “Is that the last one, dad?” after they finish cooking steaks. Hank says “No son, you’ll be grilling for years to come.” The series then ends with the camera panning back out over the Arlen skyline – just like how it panned in at the start of the very first episode.
Will never be the Simpsons. I believe Fox will use AI to voice the characters before and far after they all die.
Monks ending was solid.
Six Feet Under. That’s how you do an emotional finale.
Schitt’s Creek. The growth and development of the characters compared to the first season is so heartwarming.
Derry Girls!
Possibly one of the more hopeful notes on which a show has ended, especially given recent times.
Warehouse 13 and The Mentalist
ST: TNG
The office
Ted Lasso
Halt and Catch Fire started off as a fire breathing show about cutthroat tech companies and wound down as more human conclusion to the these characters story arcs. A few of the characters never really “won” at their last endeavor, but the show left everyone at peace. They did it in a mostly non-cheesy way, with one exception.
Six Feet Under
Malcolm in the Middle.
In the animated realm: Avatar the Last Airbender and Violet Evergarden (the movie is still a wholesome finale but less so than the series).
Non-animated: Ted Lasso.
The Office or Superstore.
Stargate SG-1 has an all-time great and very wholesome finale. It was honestly one of the best episodes of the entire show, and although the show was able to bounce back from horrendous 7th and 8th seasons, the finale really left a nice polish on an otherwise imperfect series.
Jaffa Kree baby.
Dinosaurs. Hanging at home with the family watching the winter snow fall. Absolutely beautiful.
You’re all sleeping on Reservation Dogs
Monk – >!Adrian solves his wife’s murder, finds out that she had a kid and gets on with his life.!<
House – >!House and Wilson ride off into the sunset!<
Superstores finale is really good and really sweet
Blackadder
Newhart.
You older folks know what I mean.
ITT: people confusing “wholesome” and “good.”
Lots of the shows people are mentioning have great finales, but they’re not “wholesome.”
Modern family
The Middle
The Haunting Of Hill House and Midnight Mass
Frasier. Which is why I am not so pleased about the revival. Should have just left it the way it was.
The Big bad theory. Sheldon’s acceptance speech for the noble prize where he acknowledged everyone’s contribution to making his life better was just perfect.
Community is wholesome in the way that it spends the entire episode getting you emotionally ready for it to end and you’re still somehow crying in a ball on the floor by the end of it and then you restart from episode 1 because you’re using it to fill the void in your soul and you view these people as the closest thing you have to friends.
Or maybe Ted Lasso, that’s good.
