Just last month our favorite shows returned from the hiatus forced by the writer's strike and now it's already time for the shortened seasons to come to an end. But which series season finales promise the most bang for our buck?

The Season 6 premiere of Smallville felt like the tally of who lives and who dies as the fates of several characters were left in the balance during the season finale last spring. However, fans had to wait to the final minutes to discover the fate of Lana.

In the season finale of Smallville, Clark Kent (Tom Welling) loses his high school sweetheart when Lana Lang Luthor's (Kristin Kreuk) car exploded in a blaze of glory.

Season finales are all about climax, closure and cliffhangers. However, this season I feel like several shows have been building towards the season finale all year long. Others, in a more traditional fashion, will leave us hanging until the fall.
