That yappy little fucker ruined things.

this, Dexter season 3 in a nutshell

That's when I stopped watching the Office.

Wasn't the cool cop named Homer Simpson in the pilot, who then became an idiot laughing stock, causing people also named Homer Simpson to change their name to Max Power, after a hairdryer?

And that's the end of that case.

Also wasn't he originally written as being independently wealthy? I think that aspect was also lost in the character transition.

I have been a huge X-Files fan since the show was first released and I still have not seen the last few Dogget episodes because I just can't.

Dogget at least has some character development, doesn't hold a candle to Mulder though and definitely not saying he's a good character, but what really got me was the Agent NoPersonality, Monica Reyes. (I had to look up her name) She doesn't do anything, she doesn't have any kind of development, she doesn't add anything and she's just so boring and cookiecutter. No chemistry with Dogget either. I had actually forgotten she exists until I rewatched the entire series recently.

X-Files was kinda shit LONG before Dogget comes into the picture.

When it actually happened, I stopped watching it. Never seen bothered with an ep after that.

I think Doggett was in a handful of good Monster-of-The-Week episodes, but at that point the the series had gotten way too dumb that Mulder couldn’t have really made it much better. I think the series was way too in love with its own mythology, which was, frankly, pretty mediocre. The mytharc had become so diluted and silly that I just can’t watch most of those episodes anymore, even before it got bad

That reminds me of all the Olibur memes.

Once I figured out the plot to every season I stopped watching.

A lies to B to protect them. Something happens to B because they didn't know the truth. Truth comes out anyway. Reconciliation. Rinse. Repeat.

Yea, this for me as well. When season 3 started I felt the writing was off and kinda fell off for a while thinking I’d catch up later. Once I finally got around to it, the Arrow subreddit had completely morphed into a Daredevil sub as some kind of protest to just how bad it had gotten so I just never went back.

The cracks were there in the second.

The goal to string things out with more series just makes things worse. And characters archetypes don't mesh well with the development as the writers want it all to be archetypal.

Groff-Eric was the best thing about second series. It made main guy even harder to stand.

But then I always root for the second girl, so how else could I feel?

Almost quit when Dawn was introduced into Buffy

So. SG-1 was supposed to end after season 8 (hence Moebius). They were planning a new spinhoff series called Stargate Command to replace SG-1, when SciFi got notice from the parent company - I think at the time it was owned by USA Network? - that they needed to drastically cut costs, and the only way they could lose the amount needed was to cancel a series.

Bonnie Hammer, who was president of SciFi at the time the decision had to be made, was a massive fan of Farscape; she wanted to cancel Stargate Command and keep Farscape running. Only there was a bunch of concern that Farscape didn't have the ratings the network would need, and more concern about launching yet another Stargate spinoff - Stargate Atlantis had just launched in 2004 when the decisions were being made, and Stargate Infinity had failed miserably a couple years earlier.

Despite the struggles, they decided that Stargate had more name recognition and staying power than Farscape, and Hammer made the painful decision to cancel Farscape; and also cancel Stargate Command as a spin-off but instead to role it's concepts into a continuing SG-1. With RDA having left, they had cast openings, and Hammer brought both Browser and Black from Farscape over to the revived SG-1 (hoping to also bring in song Farscape fans to boost SG-1's ratings), where it lasted out the contracted two years.

Atlantis ran for another couple years, until Cooper and Wright decided they really wanted to clone the darker themes from Battlestar Galactica and created Universe. But they didn't prep the audiences correctly. A lot of the OG SG-1/SGA fans didn't like the new, darker atmosphere, and a lot of potential fans who would've liked the new series never tuned in because the original series hadn't captivated them. It was on the verge of finding it's audience but time ran out; Universe only lasted two years before it too was cancelled.

Aw real bummed to see you say this. Cam did the best he could stepping into the shoes he was, and while he's no O'Neill, he grew on me. And I liked Anubis, too!

They killed off Sokar too early in my opinion and then realised the mistake and made Sokar 2

they had a 2-for-1 deal with claudia black since they both came from farscape, im guessing thats why. i think shes the better actor though.

i think anubis was thier way of making amends for not allowing sokar to last longer in the show. he barely made an impact in his arc, more like side characther than the main protagonist of the show.

Farscape actors turning up in SG-1 was a disappointment for me. Whatever Claudia Black does for people, she doesn't do it for me.

Great show if you skip / fast forward his scenes.

there was a episode, where tuvok was either daydreaming or had a holideck program on , where he was strangling neelix, and everyone was clapping.

Have you ever seen avenue5? Neelix was apparently supposed to be a lot more like Spike before they went jar jar

They realised and made him Tuvix for a bit.

You will not besmirch the good name of Crap Bag like that.

some people said it was andy that ruined the show, and given who the actor supports irl is not a surprise.

i watched clips of the show, but what was her role, and since she is a nephilim she would be much more powerful than any angel
