I don't think a finale has to have a cliffhanger to be considered great. It should set up the next year's storylines enough for the viewer to wonder and eagerly await the new season. That's just my opinion. I don't like it when shows go for the shocking moment just to have a cliffhanger.
Not in any order just as they come to me:
1. Friends season four - it has stood the test of time and still captures my interest even after knowing how it turns out
2. Gilmore Girls season four - the most discussed episode of the series; hated the Rory/Dean stuff, but I was absolutely antsy waiting fo the fifth season premiere.
3. Alias season two - it drove me nuts, but I guess that was the goal.
4. Everwood season one - brilliant writing from start to finish; a beautiful piece of closure to an amazing first season
5. E.R. season one - Carol's almost wedding gets to me every time.
6. Friday Night Lights season one - some of the best writing ever on television; a masterpiece in every area
