Which shows returning this year feel like they’ve lost their spark and hype that made you run to the discussion threads on here after watching it?
I’m talking about the ones that used to be peak where the directors to the set designers absolutely cooked but have shockingly dropped in quality, where the writing feels lazy and just isn’t hitting the same leaving you wishing for the quality of earlier seasons.
Whether the ratings are sliding or tanking or they’ve just lost that must watch energy they had at their peak, I want to know which series you think have officially fallen off. Which returning shows are just feeling mid, meh or worse off compared to how great they used to be and what do you think caused it?
