One that snuck on me recently was Mom. Such a great show and very funny.

No one knows, Disney has said nothing. There's some spurious stuff out there but really only Disney knows.

All we know for sure is viewing figures were not high enough to get renewal.

Reply to What TV Shows just go off the rails in later seasons? by Swing-Full

Suits. Started off as a compelling law drama with a great hook and genuinely interesting TV legal cases in a bustling law office.

By the end it looked like a show where only 5 people worked in the building and they tried to make episodes about ridiculous things like AI.

Reply to Best and worst opening songs? by ChaingaPaste

Best are from the golden day's when Studios had in house orchestras and great Composers writing amazing theme tunes.

Personally favs would be ATeam theme or Magnum Pi theme. Don't make music like that anymore for TV.

Going against the grain here but really found the White Lotus S2 song super annoying.

I also don't like the music on some bigger HBO shows lately like Last of Us. It seems GoT-lite.

I'd say S10 and S11 it sort of finds it footing again. S10 Ep3 for me is easily an all time Top 20 episode.

But yeah if you skip S8 and S9 and cherry pick S10 and S11 you'll have a more enjoyable experience.

It's 68% at Metacritic, though. And reading through the relatively small number of critic reviews, it's more along the lines of "Show is uneven and struggles but it can be overall entertaining enough".

So, it's overall positive, but barely for most of the reviews. It's not like GoT or Breaking Bad "This is an incredible show" type reviews.
