Oooooh....don't get me started....
The X-Files: Seasons 8 and 9. I can't say anything about S7, because I didn't catch much of it, but S8 & S9......especially S9 sucked BIG time.
So much so that I would rather buy the XF series season-by-season rather than have to own the sets for those seasons. (How dare they kill the Lone Gunmen? Grrrr....)
CSI: Season 7. (If that's the latest one). Man, it has just gone downhill. I predict a cancellation soon.
Numb3rs: It's hard for me to think of a COMPLETELY bad season, because the show rocks,(and hopefully it'll still rock, even after this thing with Mr. Univer....*ahem* I mean Charlie Eppes getting in trouble w/ the law and losing his clearance.....) but I can't honestly say that S3 of Numb3rs was really the greatest.
CSI: Miami: Can't remember when it started sucking, all I know is that it sucks.

With the pilot episode. :)
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
I'm with ya on Numbers - S3 was a bit of a letdown, but I'll still be watching it, because when it's good, it tends to be quite good.
Criminal Minds - when Mandy Patinkin left, I knew the show was screwed. When I see him bow out of a show, I know it's done, and he was just the first to notice the bad vibes. Chicago Hope, anyone?

You know, it really bugs me that season 2 of HEROES only had about a handful of iffy episodes and yet everyone was willing to call it a lost cause, while LOST spent a season and a half up it's ass, and yet everyone was willing to give that a pass.
Not quite everyone; I couldn't stick with Lost beyond about three episodes of the first season.
I was let down with S2 of Heroes, but I'll give it a go for S3.

I think the case with HEROES, as well as 24 (another show I'm a huge fan of), is that they had wobbly seasons, and then they went on an extended hiatus due to the strike. They weren't able to pick up where they left off, especially with HEROES since season 2 was supposed to be split into two volumes, with "Villains" (or "Exodus" as it was originally planned) to be the second half of the second season.
But I think with both shows, that they've recharged their creative batteries, they know what works and what doesn't, and that when they come back, it'll be stronger than ever. If LOST can get it's head out of it's ass and come back with some of their best work, then I'm sure HEROES and 24 will be able to do that as well.
