For me, it was The Walking Dead. It obviously suffered seriously quality decline over its run - but because it was so long, I could’ve instead watched so many other shows instead.

    I’m surprised nobody said Supernatural yet. It’s still one of my favs series, but I keep to the first few seasons and rarely go up to 10 when I’m really bored. Never watched the last 2-3 seasons or I forgot about them if I did. I read about the ending and I am just sad about it.

    Stranger Things is also one that I wish they ended after S1. Though I did kinda like S2, I have yet to watch S3 and up… Can’t we get good short series anymore? It’s not a long series, but still feel it is going to end one…

      I’ll pop in to actually defend Stranger Things, and actually recommend watching S3 & S4 ahead of the final season launching at the end of this year!

      Comparatively, S2 is an echo of the first season and largely ends up treading water. I believe the term ”Sophomore Slump” to be an apt description.

      Conversely, S3 does significantly better in not only upping the stakes, building out the world, and fleshing out the characters.

      S4 continues to build upon this, and also successfully binds together a number of plot-points and answering lingering questions, all the while setting the stage for the final series.

      100% agree with you on Supernatural though, I struggle to make it much past Season 10 also.

      I came here to post Supernatural.

      I honestly don’t even remember how many seasons I got through. Whatever the Leviathan one was, maybe?

        The only thing I remember of the leviathans is that one of them is named Dick and Charlie existed. Had to look it up, was season 7.

          I don’t remember that at all, heh.

          I don’t regret dropping it or starting I guess, and I liked some of the characters. Crowley’s great. Moose, Squirrel
