TV shows that got worse as they became more popular

Same here. I was looking forward to rewatching, but just couldn’t put up with it.

But at least Booth was competent in the early seasons. Later on, he became a clownish Mr. Mom.

That’s odd. The only thing I remember about Northern Exposure was wacky episodes.

I’m adding The Diplomat to my list. This season has quickly devolved into a bad Lifetime movie. Personally, I find its attitude about both professional men and professional women to be demeaning.
