When watching a show a while after it’s released you can sometimes tell when a show was canceled because a season will end on a big (occasionally spiteful) event.

The following season after it’s picked back up occasionally stumbles a bit but I’m wondering what examples can you think of that were especially bad?

    I thought up until the last episode it was really solid. That last episode was real bad though.

      It was so close! All the way through the revival I was like “they’re gonna pull it off” and then they biffed it again right at the end lol.

      Although the second ending was a bit less shit than the original ending I thought, so… kind of a (very mild) success?

      I’m glad someone enjoyed it! I don’t think I could cringe as much watching a show as when I was watching that. I’d rather watch Dawson’s Creek or something. There were a lot of elements that could’ve made it great, but it just really felt horrible watching it the whole time. In comparison the weird X-Files reboot was at least kind of fun, Dexter was like watching a trainwreck to me.
