I’ve probably heard of some but can’t think of any.

    Winnie the pooh: blood and honey. The first one should never have existed and the second one didnt improve on anything.

    Supernatural

    I absolutely loved the show, it could’ve been wrapped up sooner. It could’ve ended before the leviathans and I would’ve been happy.

      The fifth season was intended to be the end of the story, it would have been the right place, the original creator bowed out at that point I believe. It was kept alive.

      It’s my favorite series of all time and I still have the last season to watch pending… After that season where it was supposed to end the one and half after were kinda painful, but got better on later seasons again.

    Family Guy easily. Everything after the point where Brian was killed off and revived is basically a ‘Kill me’ cry at this point with how sadistic it’s gotten since that point; it’s like that show is begging to be put out of its misery.

    Pokemon doesn’t count because they recently retired Ash and brought on a new lead character in his place, and they’re actually trying to branch out more lately with spinoffs such as Pokemon Concierge, which that spinoff is adorable from what little I’ve seen of it, btw.

    Spongebob also needs to end just out of respect for its dead creator.

        I beg to differ, I may concede on its multiplayer (because I played it for a few hours when it released, then got bored) but the campaign is a nothingburger filled with clichés.
        The best thing people say about it is that “it went back to its roots”: except for a few references here and there and the Mark VI armor, nahhhhhhhh.

      I’m glad Alien pushed through the terrible middle, now we have Romulus and Alien Earth.

      The wheel of Time

      Seriously. I gave up on that series at book 5 when the author hadn’t resolved a single major plot point yet.

        Yeah, I bailed in book 4. I never finished it. It was the same Storystructure. I mean I loved it, but it was just going nowhere. The gang gets broken up into Subgroups and then then it’s an escort mission.

    Books: Everything written by Sanderson. Just make something happen. Please. Please?

    Anime: One Piece

    TV: everything that rely on a strong gimmick for one season but collapse at the second one (designated survivor, for example)

    Stellaris. Don’t get me wrong, I love the game, and I love seeing it get updated, but for anyone else, all they see is 300 DLC that they need to buy, otherwise it’s a completely different game than the one I’m playing. And not all of that DLC is created equally.
