One that I'm sure won't be mentioned by anyone else: Westworld. I stuck with it all the way to season 4, and I can see what they were building to, and it makes the rough seasons make more sense. I sincerely think the 5th season was going to wrap everything up in a nice bow.

That show was dead man walking by the end of S02E01. Even if they'd turned it into a masterpiece in the end, the damage was done and viewership gone. Not too different than what happened to Game of Thrones just earlier in its run.

Right before the final season, too. In a show famous for little details that become important later. When they explicitly said they planned from the beginning how it was going to end.

I’m in the same camp as you.

I rewatched the entire series earlier this year and beyond the sophomore slump of season 2, I think the series holds its own in terms of a strong and engaging narrative that is only becoming more and more prescient as time goes on.

Is anything, the main issue holding it back is the title - as the show moved away from the Wild West setting of S1&2 into a modern/future world.
