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’

Game of Thrones is the worst ending I've ever seen followed by Dexter & How I Met Your Mother.

I quit watching Vikings when Ivar became the main character because I couldn't stand him, so I never got to the end.

I actually don't mind the X Files with Reyes & Dogget tbh. The revival I could have done without, I was very hyped for it & it was disappointing.

Yeah Ivar is truly the worst.

The moment Ragnar kicked the bucket, it was all over for me.

Has HBO truly every stuck the landing on any of their shows? Especially the popular ones? Game of Thrones, True Blood, The Sopranos, so many of them seem to be devisive and dumb.

I'm gonna add Sons of Anarchy. It was absolute garbage at the end (except for the cameos) but I'd watched enough of the series I had to see it through

Oh god I can remember how disgusted I was after the last scene

What they did to Tara was horrific

[hardcoreninja11]

That final season was trash. Everything about it was just so damn stupid. But what they did to Tara and Juice just sent me over the fucking ledge into pure rage. I was ready to see both Gemma and Jax die by the time their ends actually came.

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.

[quinnmorgendorf]

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

[vibeology_e]

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.

Most if not all shows created by Ryan Murphy

[matsaurus]

This is the correct answer. He has a template for this and it happens EVERY time.

[hazypink]

The Gianni Versace series is so fucking good. He did great exactly one time and never again

Empire?

[vibeology_e]

Empire was so exciting and it fell off so quickly.

[nermal_kat]

It felt like event television during that first season.
