Top 10 Worst Cartoon Finales

Here are some of the worst finales to any cartoon ever.
The Top Ten
1 Goku's Next Journey (DragonBall Z)

Even the English dub voice actors are fully aware of how stupid this episode is.

The stupidest ending to one of the greatest anime.

2 Stimpy's Pregnant (Ren & Stimpy: "Adult Party Cartoon")

Whilst all of the Adult Party Cartoon episodes are the worst in animation history, this is how we end Ren and Stimpy's story? And this is the thanks all the fans of the old show get? Heck no!

I'd say Ren and Stimpy's story really ended in "The Last Temptation," which was a season five episode and the last episode of the original series. After Ren saves Stimpy from choking on some turkey, their stuff is owned by Wilbur Cobb (even though he died in season four, he came back as Ren's guardian angel after the episode where he fell asleep and fell into a fire pit). This leads the main duo to cry like babies in the end. See? That is how the story completely ends. "Stimpy's Pregnant" ends Ren and Stimpy in a bad way.

Stimpy giving birth to a baby made from his crap, Stimpy being noted for constipation and not pregnant at all (which is the biggest reason why this finale episode was misleading), the jokes going on for too long, Ren treating Stimpy like a total slave by making him do all the work whilst bragging to his mom on the phone, and the most infamously despicable part of the reboot's ending: the scene where Stimpy vomits and eats his own vomit. That is not funny. It is nauseating!

This is not the way to end the story of Ren and Stimpy. If you want to see how Ren and Stimpy ends, please go watch "The Last Temptation." It's a much more tolerable finale than the show's foul reboot, which was brought out as nothing but the most disgusting utter garbage ending I have ever seen in my life.

3 Back on Shaq (Johnny Bravo)

Would Johnny find the right girl? Accept he's single for a while and focus on more important aspects of life? Give us one last action-packed, pepper-sprayed, tazered night on the town? No, that would make sense! Instead, we got the typical Hanna-Barbera sellout episode. That was totally worth it.

Johnny going back in time, meeting Elvis Presley, and learning how to get the ladies would make a much better finale than this.

4 Sonically Ever After (Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog)

This was simply a load of crap. This episode alone is what makes Sonic X better than SatAM. Sure, there was Chris, but there was never a waste of time episode like this one.

To the writers of this episode: just how drunk were you guys when you wrote this episode?

One of the many reasons why both Sonic Boom and Sonic X are better than whatever this mess is.

5 The Lair (Mr. Pickles Season 1)

PhantomStrider has every right to hate this season finale and the show overall.

6 Things Change (Teen Titans)

I agree and disagree. This episode didn't have the worst ending. It was just unsettling and left us with a lot of questions. I do wish we had a season six. I miss OG TT. Now we have crap called TTG. But Trouble in Tokyo wasn't bad at all. Things Change just left us on a cliffhanger.

7 The Elimination Special, Part II the Elimination (Drawn Together)
8 The Doomsday Project (Sonic the Hedgehog Sat AM)

Thankfully, there are people on the internet making a season 3 of their own. They even got Crush 40 to sing the original Sonic SatAM theme song.

It ends on a cliffhanger, and that's pretty much its biggest crime.

In case you're curious, the creators said the glowing eyes belonged to Naugus.

9 Goodbye to Bloo (Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends)

This episode was disappointing as the end to this cartoon, especially when Cheese moves to Foster's after his owner Louise moves to another apartment that doesn't allow imaginary friends.

10 The New Black (The Boondocks)
The Contenders
11 The Superjail Six (Superjail!)
12 Everyone's a Critic (Darkstalkers)
13 Come Along with Me (Adventure Time)
14 Relief (Deadman Wonderland)

The series ends with so many things unresolved.

15 Fancy Schmancy (The Fairly Odd Parents)
16 The Gift of Gum (SpongeBob SquarePants)
17 Cleaved (Star vs. the Forces of Evil)

This is the worst cartoon finale I've seen to date. It throws everything to the wayside in favor of Star and Marco's budding relationship. Its one saving grace (or final nail in the coffin, depending on who you ask) is the ending scene along with the beautiful soundtrack for the entire episode. In the beginning, the show was about Star metaphorically bringing a bit of Mewni to Earth. The final scene really does that fact some poetic justice.

18 The Final Wreck-ening (Total Drama All-Stars)

Really boring final two, and the reset button was stupid. Horrible finale to a horrible season.

The worst winner, the worst ending. Why did they have to sink the island?

At least Owen's cameo was good.

19 The Ending of the End/The Last Problem (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic)

This certainly isn't a bad finale, but it isn't a good finale either. The action and plotting are on point, but the lesson feels like something that's been said before. Many fans have criticized the finale's lesson as all too familiar to that of the premiere's lesson. Overall, it felt like the writers were playing it safe, which is understandable considering they were wrapping up nine seasons of story. But, for what it was, it was pretty well done.

20 Hear Us Rock (Grojband)

Awful ending to an awful series.

21 The Mountains of Beyond (The World of David the Gnome)

The only reason it's on the list is for how depressing it is, with the main characters preparing for their deaths. Yeah, great way to end a kids' series by having the characters die.

I wouldn't really call this one bad, just depressing. If this list were about sad endings, you should have put the finale of Dinosaurs on the list.

22 Lumpus' Last Stand (Camp Lazlo)

Agree. This episode was inappropriate for kids, and Lumpus is a pedo for asking the scouts to paint themselves without anything on.

23 Sozin's Comet (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
24 A Regular Epic Final Battle (Regular Show)

I don't know what's sadder: Pops permanently dying in a heroic sacrifice or the fact that Mordecai doesn't marry either Margaret or CJ, but some random character we never got to know.

Obvious nostalgia bias is obvious nostalgia bias.

25 A Million Points of Light (Digimon Digital Monsters)
