I’ll pick the low hanging fruit and say Game of Thrones, because it was great right up until it wasn’t.

It was bad towards the end, but I don’t think it was because it went on too long. I think it was because they ran out of original material and had to start making it up on the fly. And then the show runners wanted to leave to go do a Star Wars show that ended up not happening anyway, so they rushed the ending.
When the White Walkers finally arrived, the big battle was over in a blip. That doesn’t sound like it went on too long, that sounds like we were a cheated out of an entire season of something potentially interesting.

Of course you’re right. I just wish we lived on a world where it stopped sooner and we could enjoy rewatching it, even if it was incomplete - like Firefly. The way it ended, I’ll never watch the show again and that sucks.

When Game Of Thrones went downhill at the 5th or 6th season i though: no matter how bad it gets, i will always have these 4 great seasons to get back to. I never went back and i have absolutely no desire to do so. They really burned it all down and salted the earth for me.
