Can you recall the first and last images shown of your favourite TV show?
Editor and telly buff Celia Gomez lines up some of the shots in questions side-by-side in this great video. SPOILER ALERT in a lot of cases, obviously.
Seeing the two bookend shots side-by-side can provide a stark overview of just how much a series and its characters have evolved over the show’s run.
And in the case of a show like Lost, you’re reminded of how a series deploy clever symmetry in its opening and closing instalments:
The shows featured are: Hannibal, Twin Peaks, American Horror Story, Breaking Bad, Prison Break, The Sopranos, Californication, The Wire, Frasier, Oz, The Newsroom, Carnivale, Lost, Rome, Six Feet Under
Sons of Anarchy, Dexter, Friends and Mad Men.
Enjoy!
