reddit user @ asked "Which show starts as a 10/10, but ends as a 1/10?" and here are some of the answers, you can read the whole thing at the source.

- Greys Anatomy and it’s not even done lol

-The X-Files. I absolutely adore the first like 4-5, maybe even 6 seasons, but point-blank refuse to watch the rest of it. It's so bad it hurts.

- I don’

These are all good ones.

The L Word. Veep. Supergirl had so much potential then just got worse and worse. The West Wing also nosedived during the Wells years. Toby Ziegler would NEVER betray the President, even to save his brother's life.

Ugh, Veep. David Mandel is forever my enemy for what he did to my once-favorite show.

Oh well. We'll always have Seasons 1-4.

TOBY WOULD NEVER

The only reason I didn't say The West Wing is because I think the nadir is season five and there is some value in season seven. It's not a 1, it's like a 3.

But yes, Toby would never sneaky leak. When Toby disagreed with the President, he wasn't sneaky about it. He would get in Bartlet's face and yell and try desperately to push the President into listening to his better angels. Toby genuinely believed in better angels.

Toby Zeigler was an optimist who was just sad because the world let him down time and again. It's why he worked on losing campaigns over and over. He picked the real deal and he wasn't willing to sacrifice doing the right thing to get a win. He was such a fully formed character with Sorkin and when Sorkin was forced out, Wells and the people running the show just saw a grouchy person who could be difficult but didn't understand why.

Definitely agree with Supergirl
