The Boston Phoenix has a cool article that lists
ten classic season finales, which range from the universally familiar ("Who Shot J.R.?") to the arcane (an episode of
Twin Peaks).
Whitney Matheson of USAToday.com chimes in, listing some
that the Phoenix forgot, all of which which happened to occur in the last few years.
One of my all-time favorite season-enders was the
Seinfeld episode "The Opposite", mainly because of two lines:
1. "My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents."
2. "Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle... Costanza?"
What are
your favorite season finales? Let me know in the comments.

I believe a refresher course in common sense is in
order: If it's poisonous, don't eat it. If it's hot, don't touch it. If it's called
Dallas, film it in Dallas,
Texas. Well, now no one can say I didn't try. Apparently, the minds behind the upcoming big-screen version of
Dallas
have decided to film in, of all places,
Jacksonville,
Florida. First of all, is a remake of
Dallas really necessary? Second of all... Jacksonville?! Wow, all
this makes about as much sense as having
Jennifer Lopez in the movie... Or
having the
British director of
Bend
It Like Beckham head the project. Next up: All the dialogue will be done... in the form of Gregorian chants!
