American Gods. I mean, still better would have been to just do it as good as the first season
The 2020 Dracula Netflix show.
The first episode is a fun reimagining of the original story. The second episode is a neat "reverse who-done-it"/bottle episode. The third episode should not exist. Full stop. "Dracula wakes up in modern times and it turns out his weaknesses are just PTSD and then he chooses to die out of honor or something."
Penny Dreadful
The second season ends on a fantastic melancholy vibe that matches the whole tone of the show. The third season wastes all character development to have extra drama.
Stranger Things.
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.
Dexter. Just leave it at the end of season 6, on the giant 'what the fuck' moment. Leave it there with all the potential and possibilities and open questions for people to wonder about.
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.
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.
Young Sheldon. There's nothing left they can do with the formula.
