Whats a TV series that went completely off the rails, became absurd and lost sight of its own original premise?

I hear Riverdale was like that.

supernatural, After krikpke left season 5, it just went in a totally wierd parasocial/sexual direction with the fans. and basically it was filler ever 2-3 seasons, til they finally ended it. and then Jensen tried to sneakingly with his wife start a new series behind jared’s back which cause a whole drama situation going on. being both producers, you and your wife was pretty deliberate in not acknowledging jared or misha(he dint make a big stink about it, because he saw the fallout of jared and jensen and dint want the same problem to arise).

ISAIP, this series was on life support after 11-12, they also got too old physically, plus the plastic surgery is pretty obvious at that point. the actors are clinging on this for dear life, because they arnt hollywood material outside the show, hence why MAC is so wierd now(the actor) outside the show.

nutrek shows, not even based on continuity or the original intent, and that was verified by Kurtzman who had no interest in the lore, he was much like Les moonves with ENTERPRISE.

SGU, YEA they shouldnt have started with the drama at all, shouldve done like sg1, in between seasons or mid-season to help break up large plots.

I feel like IASIP actor were successful in their own ways outside of it.

Rob made 4 seasons of Mythic Quest, which isn’t that easy nowadays with series getting cancelled left and right at season 2.

Glenn played in a few movies and series.

And Charlie is the “most successful” with movies and voice acting.

Caitlin has a lot of acting gigs outside of IASIP, though it feels like they are less mainstream.

I don’t watch IASIP, but the few newer episodes I watched were pretty much in line with the schtick of the whole series.

AP Bio is pretty good
