The time has come, TV watchers. It's season finale time, which means we have to start preparing for the end of our favorite shows. For some of them, it's just the end of the season. For others, it's the end of the series. But more on all that later.

Because we love you all so much and are constantly looking out for your needs, we have compiled the full list of finales so you can set your DVRs accordingly. We warn you, though, some days are so jam-packed with season-enders, you might have to sacrifice some space to make room for all of them...
