The finale may be the end of the road for new episodes of a show, but it's an integral part of the show's legacy. Take "Game of Thrones," for example—dubbed the greatest show in TV history but marred by a finale that, ultimately, disappointed fans. The show is suffering from fans not being willing to re-watch it.

While others have suffered a similar fate, some shows have hit the spot, ensuring that they get remembered for how great they were and guaranteeing multiple re-watches. Here are the series with phenomenal finales and those that pulled a "Game of Thrones" moment, plus how their stars have moved on.

Bryan Cranston - Breaking Bad

Writing a finale for a show that never lost popularity must have been difficult for "Breaking Bad" creator Vince Gilligan. But it's always better to end while things are good, and sometimes, the story just runs its course too. This one ran a pretty exciting and satisfying course, though.

Walter White, played by Bryan Cranston, loses everything but achieves his goal of financial stability for his family while freeing his protégé Jesse. He also gets revenge on Jack, and after a shootout, satisfyingly slips away while stroking his equipment. It's unclear whether he dies, but we do know that Cranston had a role in the 2021 series "Your Honor."

Jon Hamm - Mad Men

Mad Men is a show set in the advertising industry during the transitional period from the '60s to the '70s. Its main character, Don Draper, played by Jon Hamm, is chain-smoking, heavy drinking, but successful ad man. However, he has a secret life that unravels as the story unfolds.

By the end of the show, he is still a great ad man and foregoes his initial regal demeanor for a more hippie one. This is evident in the final scene where he is in a lotus position, before the 1971 'Hilltop' Coca-Cola ad cuts in, allegedly, another one of his great ideas. In 2021, Hamm starred in "No Sudden Move."

Kelsey Grammer - Frasier

"Cheers" made a household name of everyone from Ted Danson to Kirstie Alley. It also gave a hell of a career to Kelsey Grammer, who got to continue his work as Dr. Frasier Crane in the eponymous spinoff "Frasier."

The irony about the show is it begins with Frasier having left Boston for his hometown of Seattle, leaving his ex-wife and the Cheers bar behind. But by the end of "Frasier," he is ready to move again, this time to a new radio show in San Francisco. Grammer became an icon for this show, and in 2021 starred in another series called "The Lower Bottoms."

Jennifer Aniston - F.R.I.E.N.D.S

One would think that ten years of "F.R.I.E.N.D.S" would be enough. But the show is still in syndication, constantly gaining new fans and making the cast a lot of money. This could all have been different if the finale didn't provide the closure fans liked.

Monica and Chandler adopt twins and move to the suburbs, while Joey Moves to Hollywood, hence the spinoff "Joey." Also, Ross and Rachel get back together, and Phoebe gets engaged. Everyone hands in their key to the apartment, and they have one last cup of coffee. Jennifer Aniston, who played Rachel, returned to "The Morning Show" in 2021.

Linda Lavin - Alice

Another show based in an establishment is "Alice," which centers around its eponymous character. Based on an acclaimed movie called "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore," the show follows the title character as she settles in Phoenix, Arizona, and finds work at a roadside diner.

In what was then a pioneering method of ending a show, the characters reminisce about their time together as scenes from previous episodes are relived. Each character is set to pursue new dreams, and Alice finds the 'Waitress Wanted' sign that made her apply for work at the diner. Linda Lavin, who played Alice, has a role in the 2021 series "B Positive."

Jim Parsons - The Big Bang Theory

They may have been a group, but Sheldon Cooper was the star of the show. The usually unemotional character also made one of the most emotional finales in modern TV take place. All this after Sheldon finally achieves his lifelong dream of winning a Nobel Prize.

He also has an epiphany, realizing that he has been a difficult person to live with. So during his acceptance speech, he tells his friends, all present, that he loves them all in his way. Cut to the apartment where the gang is eating while a mellowed acoustic version of the show theme plays. In 2021, Jim Parson returned to narrate "Young Sheldon."

Melissa Gilbert - Little House on the Prairie

Nothing brought the American pioneer period of the late 19th century home quite like "Little House on the Prairie." That's most likely because every part of the set was built to its era, on a piece of rented land at the Big Sky Ranch in Simi Valley, California. This arrangement affected the show finale.

The destruction of the structures in Walnut Grove was so that showrunners could return the land to the owners as they received it. Everything except the little house was destroyed. In 2021, cast member Melissa Gilbert, who played Laura Ingalls Wilder, the author of "Little House on the Prairie," appeared in "Stars in the House."

Teri Hatcher - Desperate Housewives

The one thing that was crystal clear about "Desperate Housewives" from the get-go is that the goings-on in Wisteria Lane was more about the place than it was about the people. That is why, despite its lavish setting and homely feel, all the characters leave the Lane in the finale.

The finale also showed how Wisteria Lane is kind of cursed because after all the main characters leave, a new tenant is burying another secret in her backyard. Meanwhile, narrator Mary Alice states the obvious: that there will always be secrets in Wisteria Lane. In 2021 Teri Hatcher, who played Susan, appeared in an episode of "To Tell the Truth."

Michael J. Fox - Family Ties

Michael J. Fox is best known for playing Marty McFly in "Back to the Future." But he got that role thanks to his stint as Alex P. Keaton in "Family Ties." The show was the perfect example of how a difference of opinion shouldn't split or sever family connections.

In its final episode, Alex landed his dream job and had to fly the coop and move to New York. But his mother struggled with the news. Cue a family hug, which also became a cast group hug, before a live curtain call from the cast saying goodbye one more time. Fox retired from acting for the second time in 2020.

Hal Linden - Barney Miller

"Cheers" had the Cheers bar, "F.R.I.E.N.D.S" had Central Perk, and "Big Bang Theory" had Apartment 4A at 2311 North Los Robles Avenue. For the police sitcom "Barney Miller," the venue of the most memorable scenes was a dilapidated squad room. This is where captain Barney Miller ran his fictional precinct.

So the storyline of the series finale should be that the squad room is being sold. This means the precinct's officers were to be redistributed among other precincts. It ends with a sad but heartwarming final look by Miller before turning off the lights. Leading man Hal Linden appeared in a 2021 documentary called "History of the Sitcom."

Jerry Seinfeld - Seinfeld

All things must come to an end, even the sitcom regarded as the best one of the '90s. This isn't bad for a show described as being about nothing at all and just basically tells stories about the slices of Seinfeld's life and the characters of his co-stars.

However, this setup made for a pretty polarizing finale with Jerry and his friends being sent to prison for breaking a Good Samaritan Law while stranded in Massachusetts. Some praised the episode for its thoughtful approach and panned by others for being a little flat. In 2021, Jerry Seinfeld appeared in "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon."

Dan Levy - Schitt’s Creek

Father and son duo Eugene and Dan Levy left a gem for us when they came up with "Schitt's Creek." From the clever name to the over-the-top storylines, it's regarded as one of the best shows in modern TV and probably deservingly so based on the Emmy-winning finale.

As the episode name, "Happy Ending," suggests, everyone achieves their ultimate ambition. Leading man David Rose, played by Dan Levy, notably finds the business idea that gets his family out of Schitt's Creek. The final season was so powerful it won every comedy award at the 2020 Emmys. Dan Levy meanwhile had a role in the 2021 show "Q-Force."

Betty White - Golden Girls

Like its main star Betty White, "The Golden Girls" is regarded as an example of a sitcom that has aged well. It is still attracting fans in the 21st century, despite ending in 1992. Maybe it could have carried on longer, but Bea Arthur, who played Dorothy Zbornak, chose to leave the series.

Her departure led to a storyline where her character finds love and moves away from the rest of the girls, essentially ending the ties between them. The show continued as "The Golden Palace," which only lasted one season. In 2021, the surviving girls came together for a special called "Forever Golden! A Celebration of the Golden Girls."

Fred Savage - The Wonder Years

"The Wonder Years" is not just a classic show. It also provided a template that many other shows use today. For one thing, it had a narrator, which was excellently provided by Daniel Stern, taking us through the character's childhood in every episode.

Kevin, the main character, is a high school student, and the show follows him and his family as they go through their daily life. The show ended when Kevin, played by Fred Savage, finally graduated from high school. Savage has continued to act and, in 2021, had a role in a series called "The Conners. He also did voice work in "Family Guy."

Amy Poehler - Parks and Recreation

"Parks and Recreation" was not just a hit show. It also acted as a springboard for the career of Chris Pratt, who moved on to film franchises "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Jurassic World." Of course, it wouldn't be a sitcom ending without some achievements.

The most notable achievement came for the characters Leslie and Ben, who were approached to run for governor of Indiana. The rest of the characters also have some sort of dream-come-true incidents that make the finale warm-hearted. Leading lady Amy Poehler had a role in the 2021 film "Moxie." She also appeared in episodes of the series "Duncanville."

Matthew Rhys - The Americans

Who says that a show defined by violence needs to end on a violent note? Well, "The Americans" proved that it could be that way. Ironically set during the Cold War, which was supposedly non-violent, this finale instead built its plot around the tensions of an FBI agent's decision-making.

It all stems from the discovery by FBI agent Stan Beeman that his friends, Elizabeth and Philip Jennings, are the Russian spies he has been tracking for years. Does he let duty override friendship? Perhaps the decision is painful, which justifies the lack of violence. Stan Beeman actor Matthew Rhys also had a role in the 2021 series "The Owl House."

Steve Carell - The Office

As far as mockumentaries, "The Office," both the British and American versions, set the bar pretty high. But the icing on the cake was the "fourth wall" break in the finale. The entire staff of the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Company gets together after the documentary for two reasons.

One is for the wedding of colleagues Dwight and Angela; another is for a Q&A session about the documentary. One of the best surprises was the return of Michael Scott, played by Steve Carell. Characters also move on, find new callings, and, because it's based on a business, they also get fired. Carell returned to "The Morning Show" in 2021.

 Harrison Ford - The Fugitive

Many will remember the movie "The Fugitive" starring Harrison Ford, but that was based on a '60s series. There was even a reboot of the series in 2020. Still, the original is special because it set the trend for having a good finale.

It had a two-part finale with an intense chase ending with Dr. Richard Kimble finally finding his one-armed man and Lt. Philip Gerard getting his man, although not the man he's been chasing for years. The second finale episode was the most-watched one in TV history until 1980 when someone shot J.R. on "Dallas." Harrison Ford, meanwhile, had a role in the 2020 film "The Call of the Wild."

Martin Sheen - The West Wing

It was a fitting but pedestrian ending for "The West Wing," one of modern history's most famous political shows. In the end, President Josiah Bartlet cannot run for another term and has to step down for a new batch. Cue an intense election battle, which has eerie similarities to the actual 2008 elections.

Like most shows of this kind, it's all about reminiscing for the main character, while ultimately the new president comes in to change the course of the country. For Bartlett, it's about what's been, about leaving behind the white house, and about what retired presidents do. Martin Sheen, meanwhile, starred in 2021's "12 Mighty Orphans."

Tina Fey - 30 Rock

A TV show about a TV show was always bound to go down well. "30 Rock" set the world alight with its quirky humor and showbiz satire. Based on the creator and leading lady Tina fey's experience as a writer for "Saturday Night Live," the finale has more of life goes on feel.

There's the usual banter and crisis in the studio. No one leaves or gets fired ala "The Office," but there is a flash-forward showing what everyone in the show is doing, including an immortal Kenneth, played by Alec Baldwin, getting a pitch from the great-granddaughter of Fey's Liz. In 2021, Fey starred in "Girls5eva" playing Dolly Parton.

Ted Danson - Cheers

It's renowned as the place where everybody knows your name. But the idea is that Sam, played by Ted Danson, may close Cheers and start a new life with his former love Diane, played by Shelley Long, was flirted with in this finale.

He sticks to the bar, letting Diane move on to someone else. But he acknowledges that what he has is enough, although we doubt any other human would choose the same. This is TV land, after all. For the closing scene, he sends a patron packing, closes the bar, and heads to the back of the bar. In 2021, Danson starred in another series called "Mr. Mayor."

 

Sarah Michelle Gellar - Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Sarah Michelle Gellar got to star in two finales in her career, having also been a part of the "Big Bang Theory." But it's for her work in "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" that made her famous, and although things got a little complicated, they were all straightened out in the end.

In the end, Buffy assembles an army to fight the ultimate evil. The finale isn't without casualties, and the whole town of Sunnydale collapses into something called the Hellmouth. But Buffy and her band of Scoobies survive to continue their fight. Gellar did voice work on the 2021 series "Masters of the Universe: Revelation."

 

Peter Krause - Six Feet Under

"Six Feet Under" was a pretty poetic show steeped in procedural format. Its first episode began with the death of the funeral director and Fisher family head, Nathaniel Sr. Every episode kicks off with death being managed by the parlor, and the story somehow affects the theme of the episode.

But the finale does things differently. It instead starts with a birth and climaxes with a young Claire leaving for new scenery. While she drives, a flash-forward occurs, showing the deaths of each Fisher family member, just like it started with one. In 2021, Peter Krause, who played Nate Jr., returned to his role in the show "9-1-1."

Matthew Fox - Lost

"Lost" was such a major force of a drama series that it had the highest average rating of any show in the first ten years of IMDb's existence. So it's painful that many people were disappointed with the finale. Not that it's got poor ratings, but many lamented the lack of closure the episode brings.

It's also confusing, with a finale provided for the flash-sideways storyline and the island situation. In the end, they were either all dead, living in heaven the entire time, or they were rescued from the island, all barring Jack Shephard, who dies peacefully there. Matthew Fox, who played Jack, returned to acting after six years in 2021.

Denzel Washington - St. Elsewhere

The show that kickstarted Denzel Washington's career, St. Elsewhere, is also guilty of creating a finale that was polarizing at best. In the end, the final episode and what happened in it is the stuff of dreams, and apparently, the showrunners agreed with that notion.

Everyone gets some form of closure. This includes the death of the veteran and respected Dr. Auschlander and the return of the famous Dr. Westphall. Suddenly it pans backward, all the way out of a snow globe and into an apartment, where it is revealed that the whole story came from the imagination of Dr. Westphall's autistic son. Washington played the lead in 2021's "The Tragedy of Macbeth."

James Gandolfini - The Sopranos

It's an almost fitting yet unwanted ending to a show about mobsters. The lead character, who is also the lead mob boss, dies by the gun. Yet the final scene of "The Sopranos" cuts to black, ten whole seconds of the stuff before any shots fire, then goes to end credits.

It was controversial, but even today, it's still a talking point, with the show creator David Chase unwilling to say whether the Soprano family died. The beauty about that final scene is how every detail, including the entrance of a shady man, is followed. Fans will never get closure now since James Gandolfini, who played Tony, passed away in 2013.

Alan Alda - M*A*S*H

According to a 1983 article in the New York Times, the finale of "M*A*S*H" had a viewership of 125 million people. The episode was so anticipated that it was broadcast to U.S. army squadrons based in Korea. Even advertisers paid a premium of $450,000 for a 30-second slot.

It had all the essential things that make a finale tick, especially for something labeled as a comedy-drama: Emotional content about the horrors of war and comic relief to take the edge off the tension. In fact, it's the most-watched finale in TV history. Its lead actor Alan Alda appeared in a 2021 episode of "Stars in the House."

Mary Tyler Moore - The Mary Tyler Moore Show

Regarded as the 6th best-written sitcom by the Writers Guild of America, "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" had an actual ending, unlike other shows in its era. A sitcom about a news show, the finale took six writers to write, all of whom didn't want to do it. But they pulled off a brilliant nostalgic episode.

Old favorite characters returned, including Rhoda and Phyllis, renowned for their arguments, which they do in the finale too. Of course, it's fitting that the star of the show, Mary Tyler Moore, who passed away in 2017, perform the final action of the series, symbolically turning out the light on the series.

Bob Newhart - Newhart

Bob Newhart has the distinct pleasure of having two shows with his name on. His first show was called "The Bob Newhart Show," where he played psychologist Bob Hartley. The second show was simply titled "Newhart," where he was an innkeeper named Dick Loudon.

In the latter's finale, Dick gets hit in the head with a golf ball. Instead of dying, he wakes up as Bob Hartley, next to his wife from that show. He then tells her about his dream where he was an innkeeper and had a hot blonde wife. Newhart appeared in a 2021 documentary called "History of the Sitcom."

Noah Wyle - ER

While many stars were made by "ER," including George Clooney and Noah Wyle, the show was never about its actors or character. That's because it was about the story, and in the finale, it was the story to end all "ER" stories. It still involved some popular characters, though.

This includes original characters like Dr. Mark Greene (Anthony Edwards), John Carter (Noah Wyle), and Kerry Weaver (Laura Innes). There were also multiple major medical emergencies, including alcohol poisoning and a broken wrist, weaving it all together seamlessly. In 2021, Wyle had a role in a series called "Leverage: Redemption."

Kiefer Sutherland - 24

"24" is the show that led Kiefer Sutherland to become the highest-paid actor on television. It was also a tense, rip-roaring rollercoaster that made 24 hours seem like 24 weeks... literally and figuratively. It also seemed like it would never end since agent Jack Bauer just couldn't stop saving the world from threats.

In the finale, Bauer becomes what he should have been all along, a remorseless killer. He went from agent to vigilante and even bit someone's ear off. Just when you thought it was the last, Sutherland returned in 2014 for a limited special. Sutherland also appeared in the 2021 series "Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum."

Dominic West - The Wire

So "The Wire" was a hard-hitting show that tried to share the hard truth about institutions and how they affect everyone's daily life. Based on the finale, it can be surmised that either the writers didn't want it to end, or they were telling it so honestly that there are very few happy endings.

Some positive character moments include Carcetti (Aidan Gillen) being elected governor and Carver (Seth Gilliam) being promoted to lieutenant. Bubbles (Andre Royo) gets clean and drug-free, while McNulty (Dominic West) retires early. In 2021, West starred in the series "Brassic" and a mini-series called "The Pursuit of Love."

Katee Sackhoff - Battlestar Galactica

Intelligent and graceful are just some of the ways "Battlestar Galactica" has been described. There have been many versions of those shows, including one released in 1978 and another in 1980, aptly named "Galactica 1980." But the most memorable is one that started as a mini-series in 2004, eventually becoming a series.

In 2009, the finale brought the human survivors of the Cylon holocaust to their final home... Earth. But it came at a cost since the Battlestar Galactica, which had carried them through four seasons of space battles, had finally conked out, becoming inoperable. Katee Sackhoff, who played Starbuck, also had a role in the 2021 series "Another Life."

Sir Patrick Stewart - Star Trek: The Next Generation

Just when you thought the Starship Enterprise couldn't have another captain, "Star Trek: The Next Generation" happened. Step up captain Picard, played by the legendary Sir Patrick Stewart, to take the Enterprise even further into places no man has gone before. He did it in some style too.

In the finale, Picard finds himself time traveling and encounters the enterprise crew in various stages of life, including old age. In the end, he has to stop an anomaly that is present throughout time and threatens humanity's existence. After accomplishing that, he plays his first poker game with the crew. Stewart returned as Picard in 2020 in "Star Trek: Picard."

Bill Cosby - The Cosby Show

It was "The Cosby Show" that made Bill Cosby America's favorite dad. As obstetrician Cliff Huxtable, he sat at the head of the family table and ran his family with love and humor. The show redefined a failing sitcom industry and put NBC at the top of the rating ranking during its run.

But the show had its format, and instead of breaking it, the finale handled things "The Cosby Show" way. There was a theme of empty nest syndrome, and the doorbell finally worked properly after years of not doing so. And to top it off, Cosby broke the fourth wall, ending it off with a flurry.

Michael Chiklis - The Shield

"The Shield" is a police procedural drama that focuses on corrupt police officers and the political agendas of those in power. It was loosely based on the real-life Rampart scandal, involving police corruption with the strike team in the show mirroring the Rampart one.

The show had a two-hour finale, split into two parts during syndication. It was also packed with everything that made "The Shield" a hit. Closing on several corruption storylines, and ending with some rebellion, as lead character Vic, confined to a desk by rules of his new job, but goes out to investigate anyway. Michael Chiklis, who played Vic, had a role in 2021's "Coyote."

Taylor Kitsch - Friday Night Lights

Friday Night lights brought the real gritty side of high school football to the fore. But it also dealt with small-town issues like lack of opportunity, racism, and drugs. But the finale took it to a whole new level, with the writer, Jason Katims, winning an Emmy for constructing it.

Closure was the aim of the game with this episode, and each main character had a noteworthy ending. Notably, Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) took his team to state championships before taking his family away from football-crazy Texas. Tim Riggins (Taylor Kitsch) also starts building his dream home. In 2020, Kitsch also had a role in the series "The Defeated."

Lauren Graham - Parenthood

Parenthood is a show that hit the nail right on the head throughout its initial run from 2010 to 2015. It dealt with various hard-hitting themes, including pregnancy, addiction, adoption, and PTSD. But it did it all with a sunshiny disposition like everything would be okay in the end.

For the finale, it dealt with a theme it never brushed on before... death. This was after the loss of a character named Zeek (Craig T. Nelson) to heart issues. This is balanced out by the wedding of Sarah (Lauren Graham), which brings the silver lining. In 2021, Lauren Graham had a role in the series "The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers."

Justin Theroux - The Leftovers

Much like the MCU, where people had to adjust after half of the world's population just disappeared, "The Leftovers" has the same theme. 2% of the world mysteriously disappears, and everyone who's left has to adjust to a world without certain loved ones without explanation.

With alternate dimensions and parallel universes mentioned, the finale dabbles in both as it brings leading pair Kevin (Justin Theroux) and Nora (Carrie Coon) back together. Nora, who disappeared, speaks about being in an alternate dimension but choosing to return to this one. True or not, everyone is just happy they're back together in the end. Theroux starred in a 2021 movie called "False Positive."

 Kyle MacLachlan - Twin Peaks

Has there ever been a series that has waited so long for a season finale? That's mainly because there are only three seasons of "Twin Peaks," although season one aired in 1990 and three in 2017. Initially canceled after two seasons, a cult following demand for closure resulted in the third season being commissioned.

It didn't disappoint either, and the finale is regarded as some of the most intense television ever created. But the answers fans were looking for didn't come the way they had hope, although they still loved every bit of the season. Lead actor Kyle MacLachlan appeared in a TV special called "Stand Up to Cancer."

Mackenzie Davis - Halt and Catch Fire

At a time when computers and the internet were just a normal part of everyday life, Christopher Cantwell and Christopher C. Rogers dared to be different. They decided to create a show that explored the evolution of the personal computer and internet through the '80s and '90s. The result was "Halt and Catch Fire."

It started slow but eventually gained critical acclaim, particularly for its third and fourth seasons. It also had an eventful finale that involved a shocking death, a time jump, and a glimpse at the dawn of the internet age. Mackenzie Davis had a role in the 2020 film "Happiest Season."

Jared Harris - Chernobyl

When something is based on a true story, you always think that there is nothing to discover and that it's all just about paying lip service. This isn't the case with "Chernobyl." It's based on the actual nuclear disaster that shook the Russian city in 1986 and still scars it today.

"Chernobyl" details the heroics and technical work that curtailed a worldwide catastrophe. But just when you thought everything had already been exposed, the finale brings politics into it and desperate blame shifting that get pretty dangerous. Jared Harris put in a masterful performance in the lead role and did so again in a 2021 series called "Foundation."

Amy Acker - Person of Interest

Technology, like the criminal identification used in "Person of Interest" should make the world a better place, right? Well, that's not as simple as it looks, as illustrated in the show that aired for five seasons. In fact, it deals with issues of privacy, the greater good, and mechanical sentience.

By the finale, it became less about crime-fighting and more about saving the world from a computer program that can think for itself. It also has a bittersweet death as John Reese (Jim Caviezel) sacrifices himself to save the world from the program. Amy Acker, who played Root, had a role in the 2021 TV film "Crashing Through the Snow."

Kristen Bell - The Good Place

"The Good Place" is the perfect illustration of how people can change if given enough incentive and time. Take the character Eleanor Shellstrop (Kristen Bell), who gets mistakenly put in the good place, a heaven-like place, but fights tooth and nail to keep it that way.

But by the finale, staying in a good place didn't matter because Eleanor and two other souls there chose to give themselves to the universe and disintegrate into dust. Meanwhile, the guy who ran things there is given a chance to be human and sent to Arizona to explore. Bell appeared in the 2021 series "Gossip Girl."

Julia Louis-Dreyfus - Veep

Who says comedy can't also make you cry, and we don't mean as in crying with laughter. The "Veep" finale tugged at the heartstrings, although that doesn't mean it was devoid of laughs. In fact, it's packed with those and a rollercoaster of an election campaign.

There is even some divine intervention as opposing candidates started falling by the wayside. In the end, the main girl Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) becomes the president and chooses Jonah Ryan (Timothy Simons) as her Veep. Ironically, Meyer's PA, Sue Wilson (Sufe Bradshaw), refuses to give Ryan access to the principles. In 2021, Louis Dreyfus had an uncredited role in "Black Widow."
