Good after Bad

[(Anonymous)]

Often when a show/book series/movie series is ongoing and the quality/direction goes the wrong way, lots of people who used to love it say they wish it would end. But they keep watching in the hope that it might go back to what it was or might recapture that magic.

I'm wondering which media has managed to do this (even if only for a little while).

For me personally, I was about to quit CSI during Langston's era but I stuck it out and now I'm really enjoying Russell's era.

Does anyone have their own examples?

I know a couple of shows that are bad at first but head uphill in quality pretty quickly (TCW for one)

I guess I'm more curious about the ones that were good enough at first to make you love them. People are always saying shows should be cancelled because the quality has gone down (not because the premise is unsound or something). I was just wondering if shows ever recover from that.

Well, I did quit Doctor Who at the end of series 7. (Boring, convolted, didn't feel for Clara, Great Intelligence was a waste, The Smiler was just around the corner) However with the series 8 finale I did an iPlayer rewatch and found series 8 quite good. (Haven't watched Listen or Kill The Moon tho)

Oh, has CSI gotten better? I stopped watching mid way through Langston's role. At what point would you recommend picking it up again?

Re: Good after Bad

AYRT
For me, it pretty much picked up as soon as Ted Danson came on board. YMMV though. Anything was better than the end of the Langston era though.

I still believe that the only good seasons of The OC were the first and the last.

X-Men comics, I guess. They've been good, then bad, great for years, bad again, good for a while, absolutely horrible for years, uhh readable I guess, man this sucks I quit.

I have no examples of my own--either I liked the unpopular seasons (Buffy) or I quit in the bad part and never looked back (Dexter.)

I quit Supernatural for all of season 6, laboured through season 7 completely unimpressed, then slowly started to like it more and more - culminating in the 200th episode, which was beautiful and funn and made me cry and remember why I loved SPN so much.
