Which shows have you 'show divorced'?

Sons of Anarchy, Sleepy Hollow and Elementary.

I tired of Sons of Anarchy after season 3, but watched a few episodes of season 4 before giving it up.

Sleepy Hollow I got burned out on because I was sick of Katrina acting like an idiot and the whole plot with Henry. Now that both issues have been dealt with, I *may* give it another shot. But I'm not enthusiastic about it. Frankly, if it wasn't for Orlando Jones being part of the cast, and Clancy Brown appearing occasionally, I'd definitely be done. 

Elementary I got tired of and decided I was going to quit watching after last season, but with John Noble showing up this season now that he's no longer on Sleepy Hollow, I may not be done with it after all. Heidi and I both have a tendency to solve the mystery or predict what's going to happen before it actually does. 85-90% of the time we're right.

Walking Dead midway through season 4. Misery porn.

Homeland, never bothered with season 4. No Brody, no sale.

HIMYM, never bothered with final season.

Raw, about two months ago but I still read the Uproxx review. It's like looking at an ex-girlfriend's Facebook page...

Only really two shows in the last few years that I've actively said "I'm done with this, it sucks".

Homeland. Stopped watching when, spoilers, Abu Nazir turned up in America. Was too mind numbingly stupid for me to keep watching.

Damages. I stopped in the second season when Ted Danson ends up being a client for Glenn Close. Way too contrived and basically moots the entire first season.

I truthfully thought the last season of HIMYM, barring the finale, was actually one of the best seasons of the show. Probably because of the many throwbacks to the first few seasons of the show.

 

Psych is one for me. It became repetitive to me. Stopped watching after Season 5. Weeds and BBT theory too. Weeds just became too ridiculous while TBBT lost what it was about.

I'm getting close with Homeland. Last season was decent and a lot better than the two previous, but this season I'm right back to not caring so far.

To me, in the second season it went from a really cool show that was somewhat based in reality to this really over the top, hard to believe show. And I just couldn't buy it anymore. I don't need every show to be grounded in reality, but it went from beating a smart cable show to Scandal over the span of a season or so.

Does my hate watch of two seasons of Under the Dome count? It was horrible the whole way through but even I couldn't force myself to watch a third.

Otherwise my biggy is Red Dwarf. Loved it growing up and most of it still stands up as a great British sitcom, but everything after one of the writers left after Series 6 is utterly terrible.

Simpsons of course.

I never got round to finish Community after it got a bit rubbish. I think that's the standout show for me when I think of something I absolutely loved, and then haven't even bothered to finish out of just not caring anymore. 

When did you stop? Because the last two seasons with Harmon rebound quite nicely, all things considered. Some of the magic is lost as cast members depart but the new additions are almost as great. 

And I forgot that I stopped watching Psych after awhile. Been meaning to finish that at some point, though.

Futurama for me. I adored the first four seasons before it was cancelled but when it came back it was majorly disappointing. I've caught a few episodes and have loads tivoed but just can't force myself to watch them.

I never watched the Community season on Yahoo. Is it any good?

Yes. It's clearly not the same show it was at it's peak but still quite good. Like I said, it's tough with so many castmembers leaving the show but the new characters are great (Keith David!) so it works for the most part.

Awkward., after Lauren Iungerich left the show. I felt like the quality was already declining around midway through season 3, then when Iungerich left her own show I stopped bothering with it. 

The Walking Dead is another one, I gave up after season 3 or 4. I still keep up with it because I know a lot of people that watch it, but it just hasn't held my attention for a while. I can only deal with so much "Rick struggles to keep his humanity"/"the group moves from shelter to shelter" stuff before it gets tiresome.

How I Met Your Mother. I enjoyed the show up until the last season. I know what happens in the end and I just can't be bothered to watch the last season because it's so boring.

It's pretty good, yeah. Not as good as the first three series but I enjoyed it more than series 4.

 

Also, Red Dwarf. It got shitty after VI.
