TV shows that have been on too long

Can you think of any TV shows that should’ve finished before they got rubbish.

I’ll name some of mine:

Eastenders

The Walking Dead

Lost

The Arsene Wenger Show

Hollyoaks

I can't for the life of me understand how The Big Bang Theory hasn't been mentioned yet.

Won't count soaps as they're ongoing.

Lost didn't need 120+ episodes, probably should've been 3 series or something.

GOT has been dragged out a bit, and seemingly starting to be 'rushed' to the point that people get from one end of the world to the other by foot or boat in 1 episode, compared to the start.

Walking Dead has been w@nk since about 3rd series.

Simpsons, new episodes just aren't funny at all.

Family guy still probably just as funny, but it's been the same for too long so the jokes have either already been done or just have no shock value.

South Park is still really clever imo, although I've not seen the newest series.

Big Bang theory I always thought was rubbish, so can't comment on that but it seems to be going on for ages.

Talent shows & reality TV competitions are probably the worst for being dragged out, no one even cares about the winners any more so what's the point.

Other mentions;
Two and a Half Men
Modern Family
The Office (US)
Top Gear (became unfunny/good way before they changed presenters)
You've been Framed (all the clips are from the fackin 90's anyway)

That said, I don’t disagree with any of that, though I’ve never watched modern family.

Definitely Big Bang Theory

Really liked the show originally, then they had to all get paired off. That would've been fine for the final series. but it just doesn't work. To be fair, I haven't seen it for a while maybe it has got better.

If we are talking Soaps, then I could add WWE shows. It comes on Sky and I can't finish a 10 minute segment of it without switching the channel. It had its time and I think that time is gone IMO.

Another one is supernatural, season 1-5 was quality but after that it got poor, I think it’s on season 15 now.

Yup, up to maybe 7 it was decent. I’ve no idea what’s happening now in it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I gave up before then tbh. First 5 seasons were great, then they lost the writer and it went to chit.

a mate of mine still watches it and says it's recovered a bit. might tune in.

Might actually watch the first 5 seasons again, was badass tv.

Just been reading the storylines for the last few seasons, they don't seem great. They've brought back some old characters. Dunno how the Fack its been allowed to go on so long

x-files
I got the dvd series and am at season 6. I skipped most episodes becausue I was mostly interested in the main storyline. Wow it went to straight garbage. I want to sell my dvds and get something else. Seems that most tv shows should last around 5 seasons at most
