Season six was great if only for the last ep where Spike fights for his soul...

Then seven was pure gold, IMO of course...

OK, Threshold I liked, I think they didn't have enough time to establish it.

But,I have som to contibute, and it will probably show my age:

ER: after season 3, it just became horrible, no true drama, rehashing the same plots, same mega contrived emergencies.

Hunter: the season where they had the female lead raped. And then they did it AGAIN. That killed it for me.

Any home improvement show season 3+(Trading Spaces anyone?): after a couple of seasons they have to change how they do the show, cause it gets boring. And the original premise is what made the show in the first place.

Hmm, no one seems to have mentioned season seven of the X-files. I stopped watching that season, I thought it was so awful. Still makes me rather sad; I was so ridiculously into that show, and it all went to hell.

You may say I'm a dreamer. But I'm not the only one.

On the topic of home improvement series, I never really got "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition". Like how down on your luck and destitute do you have to be before you get these guys to give you a brand new house? Shouldn't these guys be doing FEMA's job in rebuilding the lower 9th Ward in New Orleans, or do they consider those poor souls not as good as a family of 12 living in an outhouse? Or is it just an hour long commercial for Home Depot and Bed, Bath and Beyond?

I stopped watching it after season 6. I loved the X-files too. Never would have thought it could have gotten as bad as it did.

I had hoped it might redeem itself, but it just got worse. It didn't take many season seven episodes to turn me off completely.

Firefly - Season 17. When Shepherd Jayne leaves the monastery to marry the love of his life, who happens to be the teenage daughter of Wash and Zoe, the show lost me. I mean, c'mon. And what's with River becoming a registered companion, at her age? Completely unbelievable. They should have retired with grace at after season 16.

Actually it lost me when Simon & Kaylee had the big fight tm , and Kaylee joined the all-girl team with that chick from Shadow...hey- wasn't that the same actress that played Kennedy on Buffy-?
