well you can’t hit it out of the park
every year I’m barely 34 and I’ve
already landed a parks department
exploratory subcommittee welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top 10 bad
seasons from good TV shows and as I
wrote about my life I relived it and
whatever I didn’t like I rearranged for
this list we’re looking at television
shows that are generally thought to be
of high quality but which had one season
that was a particularly point we’re not
discussing shows that gradually declined
in quality because we already have a
list for that and he returned to a
long-neglected model home he believed to
be empty to clarify we don’t think these
shows are bad in fact we think the
opposite but not all seasons hit the
mark since we’ll be discussing plot
points from these seasons
beware of potential spoilers caller I’m
Connor great there we go
number 10 season three arrow I warned
you it would be difficult I just thought
that I’d we’d have more time this badass
adaptation of DC’s character Green Arrow
featured another DC legend Ra’s al Ghul
as the big bad of its third outing you
had nothing to offer then and you have
nothing to offer now it was therefore
incredibly disappointing to see the show
dragged out a soapie will they won’t
they romance between Oliver and Felicity
hardly utilizing it’s extremely
underdeveloped villain you opened up my
heart in a way I didn’t even know was
well not only did it for fans of the
series it also pissed off diehard Batman
fans as the show is accused of ripping
off characters from a better known
franchise it’s
as if you developed an addiction at
least the flash had a stellar first
season that same year compensating for
team arrows shortcomings number nine
season two Friday Night Lights fix what
fix
despite the later critical acclaim and
awards this series received it nearly
became a forgotten two season
cancellation victim
thanks to this sophomore slump don’t
just stand by watch out
you know what I’m saying for a show
that’s unapologetically about small-town
football there really wasn’t enough
football coach wasn’t even coaching
rather it focused on why the Panthers
and coach needed each other without
really progressing any storylines oh and
don’t even get us started on that random
murder cover-up subplot coroner found
some carseat fibers and the dead guys
jackets ooh I thinking it came from the
vehicle that took him to the river the
show isn’t entirely to blame though as
the season was cut 7 episodes short
thanks to the Writers Guild of America
strike y’all do not need to finish this
off red light number 8 season 2 heroes
under God hey you can say kakano na wa
Kenzi de Naga daremo you talk you wanna
speaking of a sophomore slump heroes
came off it’s astounding first season
flying high before crashing and burning
here and I have trust issues doctor give
it to her first
let me see you save her then if it works
I’ll let you save me the series didn’t
seem to know what the main storyline was
and it certainly took its time advancing
the abundance of plots including more
than one hackneyed love story to the
marks no I kind of just their painless
souvenirs of my alien abduction from the
guy with horn-rimmed glasses
series creator Tom Krang has gone on
record about his regrets for this season
acknowledging that there was a lack of
direction and pacing stating that the
events of the seventh episode should
have taken place in the first one yikes
look I know you’re looking for answers
we all are
I trust me I’m not the guy to give dia
number seven season nine scrubs I
finally figured out the key to getting
everything done at Medical School do a
bunch of things at once and never sleep
this is the first final season of a
series on our list and it certainly
won’t be the last I got these brows I’m
on my way around a pair of tweezers
despite a respectable attempt to
revitalize the show by moving it to a
different location the new characters
and writers simply didn’t stick like the
previous ones I was just gonna say that
you haven’t done any cutting of our
cadaver yet hmm I know I’m psyched to
get in there oh yeah
a woman’s gonna go all Edward
Scissorhands on his ass series creator
bill Lawrence even wanted to change the
name of the show to scrubs med school to
differentiate it from the previous eight
seasons which he considered the entirety
of the original series I prefer dr. Dee
or in a pinch dr. dizzle but if you see
me out on the quad
there is no quad I’m not a big fan of
the TAS doing a lot of speaking Denise
sadly the low-quality resulted in low
ratings and we were forced to say
goodbye to what remained of a once-great
sitcom we don’t always get to choose who
deserves and who wants our help
that’s it why you gotta always ruin
pastry time number six season four
Arrested Development or damaged in a
ninja loan no income no jobs no assets
and you don’t have to pay a penny for
two years Oh ninja please one of the
first in the current television trend of
rebooting canceled series Netflix picked
up a fourth season of this show seven
years after it was cancelled they don’t
get their money soon they’re gonna be
really mad and then they’re gonna have a
major mongolian beef with us they’re
there oh we don’t have any more money
the reaction to this announcement was
pure excitement followed by pure
disappointment you know what I am done
with this family I hope you’ve saved
some money cuz you’re gonna need every
dime now while the reviews weren’t
terrible this iteration decided to take
place over a short amount of time
focusing on different characters in each
episode wrong house buddy
no this is my son LEM Deborah gia this
robbed the series of the chemistry
between the dysfunctional Bluth family
which is what made the original series
great he’s in denial we’re getting ready
divorce number 5 season 1 Parks and
Recreation
they cut his face off and they made it
into a dreamcatcher and they made his
legs into rain sticks and that’s a great
thing about Indians back then is they
used every part of the Pioneer we know
what you’re thinking
Parks and Recreation was one of the best
comedy series of the last decade we tell
you something Tom you suck at Scrabble I
know you’re destroying me you’re worse
than my ex-wife and she’s terrible at
Scrabble
and she’s a bitch that’s entirely true
save for the first six episodes the
characters were underdeveloped
the jokes weren’t particularly funny and
it all felt like a less funny ripoff of
The Office when you work closely with
someone and you share similar interests
and you have a similar worldview and
you’re passionate about the same things
things can happen we slept together some
even complained that the show was too
mean-spirited as most episodes ended
with the optimistic Leslie coming up
short go to go and check it thankfully
NBC gave the show another chance and the
following six seasons gave us likeable
surprisingly realistic characters and
allowed it’s wonderful cast to finally
shine sweet chick Leslie exits the
building and then you get hit number
four season nine Roseanne you would not
really rather be with major Healey now
would you master well I guess the moon
can wait many of the entries on this
list are criticized or betraying the
heart of the show and that’s most
obvious in this sitcoms final season
you’re talking to us like you think
we’re a bunch of Hicks but you’re the
real hick you’re totally out of touch
with what the American people want
Roseanne one audience is over with it’s
realistic portrayal of a struggling
working-class family but that was all
thrown out the window when the connors
won the lottery um if we were here to
collect say
hundred and eight million dollars so
where would we go oh you’re the one huh
you know a two of those numbers well
thanks for your dollar to add insult to
injury in the series finale we learned
that the entire series was actually just
a story written by Roseanne and what she
didn’t like about her real life
she changed I tried to imagine myself as
Mary Richards genie that girl but I was
so angry I was more like a female Steven
Seagal wanting to fight the whole world
the most heartbreaking thing is that we
never really got a chance to say goodbye
to the characters of this legendary
sitcom then in each life some rain falls
bad you also get some Sun number 3
season 2 The Walking Dead it’s all good
you all must know by now that we at
WatchMojo dig The Walking Dead but this
season just wasn’t up to snuff I don’t
get it
nah man you don’t despite a promising
beginning audiences slowly realized that
by the halfway point nothing was really
happening how can you think like that
after a first season that established
the show as one of the most thrilling
and shocking dramas of all time this
season focused far too much on the
walking and not enough on the dead come
on let me give you a lift my feet work
just fine despite an upswing in the last
few episodes too much of this season
feels like filler material in a show
where we expect more boys having a baby
man congratulations
thank you number 2 season 8 Dexter
oh you have a very low fat to muscle
ratio
well thanks I do what I can you know and
here is yet another unfortunate final
season I wake up every day thinking of
every bad decision that I ever made
because of you Dexter had been
criticized for declining quality for
several seasons but was still relatively
well regarded that is until they reached
their endgame looks like a piece of it
has been scooped out like with a melon
baller just got weird while the whole
season ended up being extremely boring
when it should have been taking more
risks the final nail in the coffin was
the disastrous series finale which saw
Dexter mercy killing his adoptive sister
and faking his own death to become a
lumberjack while it’s certainly not how
we expected our favorite serial killer
to end up it’s definitely not how we
wanted it small Tori oh girl how does it
feel to be a father
I don’t know idea before we unveil our
number one pick
here are some dishonorable mentions well
we’ve been here before of course we have
is the cockpit dummy we come here all
the time I’m sure there are plenty of
brides who want to kill their maid of
honor I’m not one of them hi you are
pacer BAE
right air started right after I do you
have any idea what happened right here
in this very bar no what happened just
all kinds of stuff all I’m saying is we
have to be careful we’re operating way
outside our jurisdiction and like it or
not this man has rights he will
volunteer the information of that I am
certain
number one season four community so the
rest of us will have to pick up the
slack and yes Jeffrey I assume you’re
out because of your track record of
literally being too cool for school we
hate to pick on such a criminally
underrated show but we just can’t
forgive the only season of this cult
classic that was severely missing its
showrunner Dan Harmon I’ll have you know
that one in a little pageantry in your
life is it a crime or a lifestyle choice
while earlier in later seasons were
praised for their unique and interesting
stories Harmons departure made it
difficult for the show to be as clever
as it once was
no I’m sorry ah I didn’t mean to startle
anybody yeah and I thought my hair
looked fake additionally the season was
plagued by controversy surrounding Chevy
Chase bad-mouthing the show walking
offset and using racist slurs resulting
in his departure late in the season
second bozos you couldn’t ditch by that
cool kids thankfully the creator
returned to the show for two additional
better seasons and a movie we can only
hope that even if we go somewhere we’re
not going anywhere
do you agree with our list treat me like
Judas judging me like Judi what’s your
least favorite season of your favorite
TV show I’m so sorry
