Original-recipe Hawaii Five-O-- I had been purchasing the DVD releases regularly through the seventh or eighth season, but stopped because of how I had heard that the last few had gone down in quality (although I purchased that last one out of curiosity as to how bad it really was).
MrCleveland 11-13-2015, 06:11 AM For me, it's The Simpsons...
1990-1997...The Simpsons were taboo in my house because of its raunchiness. It's tame to today's standards, but there has been many people back then saying "what garbage is this"?
1997-2002...I started to watch The Simpsons. It had some cleverness, some good characters, and good storylines.
2002-2007...I started to dislike The Simpsons since they've been on for too long. Season 13 was a let-down, but The Simpsons Movie...I enjoyed. I only watched the first 13 seasons by then.
2007-2015...I've boycotted The Simpsons since they'll never end! They'll even have new episodes when the apocalypse comes!
tlc38tlc38 11-13-2015, 11:31 AM I've recently given up on Once Upon a Time & Scandal. I just lost interest in the shows after watching them both since day one.
Jack Gomez 11-13-2015, 12:25 PM I gave up on Supernatural last year. It felt like it was just going in circles. Same stuff just mixed up a little different each year. Also, was tired of the brothers not getting along. The first five years was great. Kind of wish they stopped then.
Adamantium 11-13-2015, 01:47 PM There's not many. Usually I'm quite loyal. However, I can think of one... "Desperate Housewives." I watched season one and loved it, then got bored with season two. I fully intended to watch the later seasons on DVD but just never got back into the mood to watch the show again.

"DH" is one of my favorite shows of all-time. I watched from day 1 and I never missed an episode...it was appointment viewing. I now own all the seasons on DVD and plan to watch them in a few years so the show seems new again.

So are you saying I should give it a second chance? ;)
I also don't like when shows jump a few years in between seasons. Didn't this series skip like five years at one point?

Yes, they did jump at the end of season 4 but it was done in an awesome way.
I would give it another shot if I were you. This was and will always be one of my favorite "soaps".
mets82 11-13-2015, 04:23 PM You know I watched DH the first season and then I think I watched something else up against it during season 2. Then I was lost because I missed a whole season. I did eventually pick it up to the end.
Blood and Oil was a show I intended on watching but after the pilot I just stopped. I think 2 Close for Comfort is another one. I watched it when Antenna first aired it but now I dont watch it at all.
factsoflife 11-13-2015, 08:28 PM Beverly Hills, 90210: I pretty much quit watching after that 8th season. I did start watching again in the 10th (final) season.
Ugly Betty: It got pretty predictable very fast. I quit watching around the third season.
Supergirl: I've already quit watching this week. It just got really boring.
Bones: I watched for a solid 8 seasons and then gave it up. It just started to repeat itself.
Castle: I watched until about season 5 or 6. It just became too much of the same thing.
Frasier: I had watched most of the series, but quit sometime in the middle of its run due to other shows airing against it that I wanted to watch more.
How I Met Your Mother: I gave up on this show when it became a shadow of its former self.
General Hospital: I watched religiously from 1991-2007 and then again sporadically from 2008-2011(approximate). The show simply stopped writing for the characters I liked.
All My Children: I watched religiously from 1990-2007, and then sporadically thereafter. The series simply wasn't the same anymore.

Yong Fang 11-13-2015, 09:11 PM Raising Hope. Loved the first season, then it went horribly after that. The stupid characters got more stupid and cartoonish. Also, more importantly, the lead character Jimmy got what he wanted by marrying the (hot, dark haired goddess) check out girl who happened to be a millionaire's daughter, who married Jimmy and moved into a really cool house. Show got pointless after that.
