7 Best TV Shows Ending in Spring 2022
As the fall to spring TV season winds down, it’s time to say goodbye to a few of the best TV shows on the air right now. This is always a tough time of the year for TV fans. If fans aren’t saying goodbye to a show for good, it’s usually “see you later” for at least a few months.
Luckily, all of the shows on this list have not been canceled. The shows are simply coming to an end. Below, check out the list of the best TV shows ending during the spring of 2022.
‘This Is Us’
Finale Date: May 24
Where to watch ‘This Is Us’: NBC and Hulu
This Is Us is one of the most popular shows on TV right now. Fans tune in every Tuesday on NBC to see which piece of the Pearson family mystery is revealed. With only a few episodes remaining, those revelations are earth-shattering. Mandy Moore threw up after reading the second-to-last episode of the series, and Chrissy Metz couldn’t catch her breath. There are more shocking moments and twists to be unveiled, so it’s time to start preparing ourselves for the end.
With such an emotional show, it will be tricky to hit the right beats to keep the fans happy. Based on how things have gone so far, fans should be in good hands heading into the final episodes.
According to a report from Decider, This Is Us series finale airs on May 24.
‘Grace and Frankie’
Finale Date: April 29
Where to watch ‘Grace and Frankie’: Netflix
Grace and Frankie starring Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin is coming to an end on April 29. The final 12 episodes of the Netflix original series will be released at 12 a.m. PT on the streaming service.
It’s been a long road for Grace and Frankie, which was one of the first successful Netflix original comedies. Since the series premiered in 2015, it’s been one of the most popular shows on the streaming service. Netflix changed plans with Grace and Frankie after filming for the seventh and final season was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The first four episodes of season 7 were released in August 2021.
When Grace and Frankie Season 7 is released on April 29, the show becomes the longest-running Netflix series of all time with 94 episodes.
‘Ozark’
Finale Date: April 29
Where to watch ‘Ozark’: Netflix
Two of Netflix’s most popular shows ever end their run on the same day in April, Ozark and Grace and Frankie. Ozark Season 4 Part 2 hits Netflix on Friday, April 29 at 12:00 a.m. PT. Unfortunately, that’s 3 a.m. ET.
Ozark Season 4 premiered on Netflix on Jan. 21. Fans waited about three months for the final episodes to arrive. There are seven episodes remaining in the series. If the first seven episodes of the season were any indication, fans are in for a wild ride.
What will happen to the characters played by Jason Bateman, Laura Linney, and Julia Garner? Fans will have to wait and see. Bateman teased the Byrde’s fate during a recent press appearance.
With all of the death and destruction these characters caused through the first three and a half seasons, it will be surprising if the Byrdes, Ruth, and all of our favorite characters make it out of the final season alive.
‘Black-ish’
Finale Date: April 19
Where to watch ‘Black-ish’: Hulu and Disney+
Black-ish premiered on ABC in 2014 and ran for eight seasons. Starring Anthony Anderson, Tracee Ellis Ross, Yara Shahidi, and more, the series is one of the most popular network comedies of the last decade. Black-ish came to an end with the series finale on April 19. The final season finished with 13 episodes, which was a shorter season compared to the first seven seasons of the hit comedy.
While Black-ish has come to an end, the story carries on in Grown-ish, a spinoff of the comedy series. Grown-ish enters its fifth season this year. Marcus Scribner, who starred in Black-ish, joined the cast of Grown-ish Season 5.
‘Better Things’
Finale Date: April 25
Where to watch ‘Better Things’: Hulu
Better Things starring Pamela Adlon premiered on FX in 2016. The series ran for five seasons on the network. FX renewed the series for a fifth and final season following season 4 in May 2020.
It’s been a long wait for the final episodes of Better Things. The fifth season premiered on Feb. 26. There are 10 episodes in the season. It ended with the series finale on April 25. You can watch every season of the series on Hulu right now.
‘Bull’
Finale Date: May 26
Where to watch ‘Bull’: CBS and Paramount+
After six seasons on CBS, Bull ends its run at the end of May 2022. The good news is that fans and creators saw the end coming. CBS did not cancel the series. Instead, CBS ordered a sixth and final season in the fall of 2022.
There are 22 episodes in the final season of the series, up from 16 in the fifth season. Sadly, there are only a few episodes of the series left. The final airs on May 26, according to TV Line. If you’re behind in the series and want to catch up before the finale, you can watch older episodes on Paramount+.
