Season 3 and its fallout in S4 (Hopper in Russia) were pretty dire. Cut those and go deeper with the Satanic Panic plot from S4 instead. Maybe actually have a church leader involved, not just jocks and the PTA? Riff on the "spiritual warfare" literature of the period, Mike Warnke, Frank Peretti -- distant cultural ancestors of QAnon, by the way.
Surprised I haven’t seen Prison Break yet. After season 3 it just went down

American Gods. I mean, still better would have been to just do it as good as the first season

Mad Men. If it had ended with him standing on the top of the stairs saying "This is not the end!" it would have been perfect. Everything after that was weak wish fulfillment.

Every Jenji Kohan show.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The first half of the series was great, I literally almost choked from laughter a couple times. The show kept going but I thought the jokes weren't landing as much anymore.
Oh definitely a hot take! Obviously there are outstanding episodes in the newer seasons, but you also can't say it hasn't changed alot.

I think The Shield ended a season too late. If the seasons 6 and 7 were condensed into one with [spoilers ahead] the fallout of the Kavanaugh investigation and the money train, rather than stretching them across two different season, I think the ending would have a tighter pace and would really feel like the "walls are closing in." Plus the whole cartel subplot of the last season came out of nowhere
Edit: Riverdale too, but that should go without saying
Edit 2: House of Cards should've ended with Kevin Spacey leaving
Edit 3: True Detective
Friends.
Lost.
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno
I was just thinking about the friends later seasons, hooking up Joey and Rachel, wtf was that about?
It was about money. Nothing else.
All I can think is that they were running out of couples, and the execs wanted to keep their cash cow alive for as long as possible. So, they ordered the writers to make it work somehow.
