The best ever was the Newhart one where he woke up in bed in his previous series as if it was all a bad dream.

The Wonder Years ending was good as well.

It was actually the idea of Bob Newhart's (real life) wife, during season 2, when having dinner with Susanne Pleshette. They never thought it would be possible.

When Pleshette got the call from the show's producers years later, she immediately figured out why, even before they explained it.

Only a handful of people knew about the final scene. They didn't even tell the rest of the cast until they were about to shoot the scene. There were planted rumors that Bob would instead be talking to God (in the form of George Burns).

Without question Newhart’s ending to the Bob Newhart Show in bed in the exact room, with Suzanne Pleshette, was the best ending imaginable.

You just couldn’t see it coming.

Yes, for sure. The other series was so dreadful compared to the first, but you kind of had to forgive them after that ending.
