Lost definitely. And I say that as someone who was admin on some of the biggest Lost forums. Those whole 'flash sideways' and 'flash forwards' things. Ugh. Also Jack is the worst character in TV history. I can't even rewatch it as it makes me angry.
Star Trek: Voyager. Started out okay, got good for a short bit, then spiralled downward.
Star Trek: Enterprise. Never really got going and then that ending. Yikes.
I thought the SF elements were good, & the Robot Chicken parody was great! I guess If I like something, for whatever reason, I may be, in some cases, be blind to its weak points. I watch very few TV shows, so most parodies lack the punch they should have. Very few now movies, also.Sarah Connor Chronicles - great first season, don't know what happened for most of season 2. The only good season 2 elements were Shirley Manson and that episode on the submarine. Too bad, there was some potential there. They had a talented cast and a good story line to start with.
Regrettably, I agree.*sticks head above parapet*
Dr Who? Both the original run and the revival
*ducks down before the missiles arrive*
Regrettably, I agree.
I liked the Ecclestone series and there are a few other episodes but not enough for me to be a fan any longer. Jodie Whittaker is doing her best but most of the stories have been pretty dire. I like Rosa Parks, but it tried to cram in too much and wasted time all in the same episode.
That would have been my choice as well. Then they could have brought Richard E. Grant in much earlier.I would have rather they had Paul McGann then Christoper Ecclestone in the first season of the new show.

I too, watched Andromeda, & enjoyed the continuing story, until about s3 or s4, when things began, as I recall, to change drastically. The 1st Nietzschean was replaced by another, which was o.k., but other changes also. I really want to finish the series, but 1 episode every three months seems like too much. I thought the [what is it called? the relationships and conflicts between the characters] was more than just good.
Falling Skies had those aliens that I really wanted to see better; tried pausing, zooming, etc. They were cool! Never even occurred to me to google them. Liked the series' plot, though some sub-plots seemed bad.
Another one for me was Jericho although this one for a different reason - this one got cancelled so the last season was really short and felt really rushed. It actually really annoyed me because Michael J Straczynski was attached and had a proper arc planned out - he really helped get series started with carrying out the multi season arcs so it sucked.
Andromeda It's fist two seasons were brilliant,This is a show which should have been another Babylon 5, but what happened?
“Robert is a genius, but was developing stories that were too complicated and too clever for the rest of us to understand,” Sorbo said. “What we now have is a team of very talented people who write standalone stories that can, on occasion, blend together to form a story arc. That simple ‘turn-up, tune-in’ attitude was what was missing. Now we have that, I really feel we’re on track toward making ‘Andromeda’ an outstanding show.”
To cut to the chase, I thought it was a big mistake to get rid of Robert Hewitt Wolfe as our show runner. He made a five year vision for the show and they fired him after two years. That’s kind of the studio’s way to sort of keep people in their place for ego reasons, I don’t know. I was hoping we could see his vision through. I enjoyed the darkness of it, the unpredictability of it, and I enjoyed the universe. Being as evil as it was, I wanted to see how Dylan was going to work his way through with the Magogs and the Nietzscheans, and all the other bad people.
Sliders, started out great, but by season 5 the show was unwatchable.
