the higher they climbed the harder the
fall and I have for me but we haven’t
for us and for the next seven ejections
21 days we have to function together or
we fail we’re not functioning together
at all
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
TV shows that lost their mojo oh honey I
really need to watch where you’re going
for this list we’re including shows that
were at one time beloved by fans but
that eventually started to disappoint a
lot of them number 10
survivor these 16 Americans are
beginning the adventure of a lifetime
they have volunteered to be marooned for
39 days on mysterious Borneo the mother
of all reality game shows survivor was
the first to introduce and captivate
North Americans with the concept and its
castaways but the longer the show
survived the less its storylines focused
on physical trials and actual you know
survival what started my period ah no
wonder I have cramps instead we were
forced to care about who was voting for
who Stacy came up to me it’s like she
don’t like Rudy and she’s like oh I
think we’re gonna vote for Rudy and look
for him off because he’s so barking why
anybody’s to burking to Gua si si si
because she doesn’t move her ass these
chicks think I’m voting for one person
and I’m not and cheap gimmicks like
bringing back beloved competitors made
later seasons a shadow of their former
glory
my god it’s Russell that’s why a slew of
hot new series with similar formats have
left the show in their dust
sorry survivor the tribe has spoken
Stephanie go
yeah number nine the x-files just oh so
much
it was an out-of-this-world phenomenon
but after several seasons and a movie
where every paranormal activity was
exhausted the x-files had seemingly run
its course especially with the departure
of starred David Duchovny what do you
think Evan come on what’s your theory
the introduction of John Doggett as
Mulder’s replacement in season 8 didn’t
win back failing fans miss the geeky yet
Fox EDA company he might have just
introduced yourself well I was getting
around when Gillian Anderson also
stepped back and let Monica Reyes fill
her shoes it was the final nail in the
coffin of this once great show disgraced
when they didn’t he fled and tried a
more ecumenical scam the x-files went
out with a whimper not a bang I tried to
convince you of the truth and in that
respect I succeeded but in every other
way I failed
number 8 weeds
and click there goes the phone I don’t
wanna know what my harvest folks
predicted a daring new show in its first
two seasons weeds attempted to make
marijuana marketing a socially
acceptable industry people that stone
for The Passion of the Christ
that’s disturb is not as disturbing as
watching a not stone religion my ass
it’s a straight-up snuff film Nancy
Botwin challenged perceptions of what
pot dealers are like because instead of
the sketchy schoolyard peddlers she’s a
newly widowed mom providing for her
family
Jesus Nancy weren’t kidding this stuff
is primo won’t climb in unless you want
to go back to buying weed from your
housekeepers cousin I suggest you put
away the pipe hide the open bag of pot
and get your head out of your ass what
are you thinking but weeds hi
turned into a bat trip because it was
trying too hard to be cool by showing
different subcultures it featured one
too many obvious product placements and
every dealer and druggie fell
head-over-heels for Nancy whatever she’s
not living bait no matter how much
trouble it caused them God
Graham
number seven Dexter soon you’ll be
packed into a few neatly wrapped Hefty’s
in my own small corner of the world will
be a neater happier place America loves
its serial killers but Showtime took a
killer concept through some plastic down
and just butchered it season after
season Dexter Morgan faces yet another
mastermind challenger and comes out on
top
putting his busy lifestyle to the test
can’t be a killer and a hero it doesn’t
work that way but new characters and
bold moves rarely paid off especially in
later seasons and after a certain point
it was just same old same old but the
final knife slice to this once exciting
show its devastatingly poorly received
finale now they see me
I’m one of them and their darkest dreams
number six
SpongeBob SquarePants
today’s the big day
Gary though some would call this one of
the most overhyped children’s shows ever
spongebob squarepants still had at least
a couple of decent seasons under its
square belt I’ve been training my whole
life for the day I can join the Krusty
crew and now I’m ready Patrick Squidward
mr. Krabs Gary and the titular yellow
sponge served Krabby Patties and good
laughs but new season three characters
ruined the recipe the writers turned to
more mean-spirited humor and every
trivial concept seemed to get the full
episode treatment pretty good spongebob
but it’s lacking basic construction and
your perspective leaves a lot to be
desired
not to mention the movie
anything after season 3 is well just not
sponge worthy I guess visit the end
SquarePants but like the old saying goes
better to end up sinking into a
prehistoric leg of tar did you turn to a
life of crime goodbye world
number 5 that’s 70 show by the way
thanks for the ride this hit period
series had it all
what was that for
miscreant tok buddies having bro
ventures boy meets girl boy and girl
fallout boy rides off into the sunset
leaving sitcom to struggle that’s where
that 70 show should have ended but since
writers need to eat they kept at it even
though it had reached its natural
conclusion you are such a whore at the
end of season 7 eric foreman departed
for africa leaving a hole his
replacement never really filled okay
Charlie I’m gonna put you in charge of
this if you ever want to cheer Fez up
here’s a little trick and for some
reason his friends continued hanging out
in his parents basement until the season
8 finale you know Dinah Eric is in
Africa must be close to hitting rock
bottom not really Harlan this boy has to
wear before one of your floozies hits
rock bottom
number four two and a Half Men I’ll see
you when you get here we better hurry
oh is she staying over cuz I may have
parked behind her rehab can put a strain
on family relationships and no TV family
has been tested more than two and a half
men’s yeah looks that way
you’re lucky I was your age I can only
dream about my parents splitting up
after Charlie Sheen decided to start
winning his character was
unceremoniously killed off in the season
9 premiere I just want you to know that
Charlie didn’t suffer his body just
exploded like a balloon full of meat but
instead of stopping or changing the name
to one and a Half Men or maybe just two
men since the kids pretty old Sheen was
replaced by Ashton Kutcher
however Kutcher didn’t blend with the
cast at Sheen hat and failed to convince
fans he was intelligent guess what I had
sex with two girls last night it only
went downhill from there welcome to my
humble abode
number three American Idol and history
has shown that an idol can do anything
after several seasons with no new
formula or surprises and the same old
host American Idol could no longer hit
those same high notes with TV audiences
even Simon Cowell’s brand of brutally
honest feedback became familiar white
noise until his Season nine departure
mariah by season 12 the format had
officially run its course grooving
repetitive no matter how many judge
swaps were made this is what I deal with
when I come into my job the show
especially lost its voice when newer
similar contenders like The Voice and
America’s Got Talent
stole its spotlight my gosh I don’t even
have the words for it
look vinegar overall the group was weak
it may be time for this show to not go
on Thank You mrs. mine why you had to
add the missus or any relation to the
former President George Bush you know
George Bush’s wife Oh any really is the
Kate Bush no what about Reggie Bush
number two heroes why are we here what
is the soul why do we dream
absolutely better off not looking at all
ever since lost burst onto the scene
raking in tons of viewers every sci-fi
action drama tried copying the intrigue
driven cliffhanger formula oh my oh my
god
that’s where heroes tripped over its key
starting with the second season’s
lackluster amnesia premise that reset
everything
the writers binge wrote obvious
mysteries into every plotline included
random lesbian curious subplots and
overly goofy but trying to be sinister
bad guys look at the crack it was a time
when character complexity was leaping to
new heights in the hero genre and even
though it’s characters saved the world
again and again heroes was left behind
my life as I know it is over okay before
we unveil our top pick here are some
honorable or in this case dishonorable
mentions
this year Merry Christmas
you were saying something about turtle
shredder I don’t believe it
they found us again we’ve staked out the
Hall of Science for weeks please just
turn yourself in and that way you can
get the help that you really need George
just call the nursing supervisor not
helping to solve the problem
number one The Simpsons the results are
in this town has voted unanimously to
get rid of Springfield’s unending
nightmare The Simpsons Oh to the
naysayers WatchMojo isn’t afraid to make
enemies of America’s most dysfunctional
family and a massive nuclear attack is
expected to reach our shores within the
hour
but even diehard fans who still love the
show know that the Simpsons started to
lose steam as it approached its 10th
season I do not think we should be so
quick to judge our longtime neighbors
not so fast Flanders we knew you’d be
the voice of mercy and we’re prepared to
answer your concerns once a bastion of
pop-culture references and impeccable
wit the show after over two decades on
the air is now usually a pale imitation
of its younger self with its longevity
ultimately spelling its downfall let’s
go Smithy’s boo
getting a little clingy don’t we as much
as we love the residents of Springfield
The Simpsons proved once again the TV
families can overstay their welcome in
our living rooms I want an entire
tangoing office for us to get rid of one
family what have we done that’s so
terrible do you agree with our list it’s
evil its diabolical its lemon-scented
what shows do you think have lost their
luster you want to put Billy in an
institution no please let’s not turn
this into a 1950s b-movie this place is
run by excellent psychiatric specialists
who may have some creative solution to
help Billy for more top 10s published
