"It was more like a low budget hair product advertisement by the end."

It's always rough when a show you love falls off drastically. Well, u/BVTQT recently asked r/AskReddit "Which show starts as a 10/10, but ends as a 1/10?" Here are some of the best responses:

HBO

2. Blacklist

James Spader, wearing a hat and glasses, gestures with his hands while speaking to a woman in a patterned dress in a formal setting

NBC

"I could watch James Spader in his element all day – but as the seasons went on I could no longer tolerate the character of Elizabeth Keen and the constant flip flopping of whether Reddington is her father or not. It got so old."

3. Weeds

"I don’t know that it started as a 10/10, but Weeds absolutely collapsed after about the third season and somehow kept going."
