Yeah Seaquest had such a great season 1...and then

See now I like Joel and Mike...I had a much harder time getting past replacement Crow..I missed Trace terribly

It's weird, I hardly noticed Crow's new voice at first, only much later did I realize that it's different (I didn't grasp that Trace was gone for good, guess I thought he was still doing the voice so I didn't pay too much attention to it). I like both Crows, but I think I actually prefer Bill Corbett's angrier, more sarcastic Crow - it kinda reminds me of Bender from Futurama. Still, I missed Trace's Dr. Forrester.

LOST-Season 2-3.5: Aside from the whole Desmond/Penny plotline, the entire second and first half of third season was just navel gazing through their asses. No dramatic momentum whatsoever. It was only when the characters and the show decided to move forward in actually getting off of the island, as opposed to sticking around to figure out it's metaphysical meaning, that it actually got me excited.

BATTLESTAR GALACTICA- Season 3: While the escape from New Caprica, the Eye of Jupiter and the big reveal at the end of the season was riveting stuff, for the most part I found season 3 to have a lot of filler episodes that had no impact on the overreaching plotline, and were just not that memorable.

SLIDERS- Season 3 onward. With Tracy Torme quitting the show after season 2 since he was tired of fighting with the network execs, leaving David Peckinpah in charge, the concept they had fell by the wayside, and it just became horrible, even before The Professor was killed off. Since there are so many re-makes of shitty 80's shows, I'm hoping that next decade, there'll be all the 90's remakes. And I hope SLIDERS gets the BATTLESTAR GALACTICA treatment.

BUFFY- Season 6 onward. With season 6, you can tell that they were starting to run on fumes.

24- Season 3 and 6. While season 3 had a lot of great stuff that happened later in the day, the majority of seaosn 3 just felt really off. And then with 6, my interest was beginning to wane. If you're losing interest in 24, of all things, you know that something's wrong. But here's hoping that Day 7 and its prequel can bring the show back to it's glory.

The Shield - Season 6. It felt like mostly filler, little real meat to it.

The Gilmore Girls - Season 6. The show's creators had left, and it really, really showed. They were rehashing old plots with new characters, and it was hard to watch.

The West Wing - Season 6. For the same reason as Gilmore Girls - Aaron Sorkin was dumped after his pot arrest, and the show lost its snap. It didn't sizzle; it plodded. Sorkin was brought back for S7, and it picked up for the finish.

Angel - Not the whole season, but that whole going to Lorne's world thing just pretty much blew.

Dark Angel - Season 2 (and onward). It just didn't have its mojo anymore.

Veronica Mars - Season 3. It really felt like they were under the gun and about to be cancelled, so they started flailing around looking for ANYTHING that would grab viewers. And they failed.

Buffy - Season 6. I *liked* Glorificus, but I hated The Trio as ubervillains. They were just schlubs, and were lousy at being bad. I got annoyed with the potentials in Season 7, but the storyline at least got back to SLAYING, which was as it needed to be.

Heroes - Season 2. Besides being cut short by the writers' strike, S2 just didn't have me dying to watch.

Things were changing- no it wasn't the same show as it was in seasons 2 & 3- was it supposed to be?

Ummm....no.
Inconsistency was a trademark of that series...season 4 & 5 had the most good eps, but no season was perfect.
