Which series had the worst example of seasonal rot? Pic not related but season 4 was still pretty bad.

Spongebob. Those gore scenes (the toenail) and the grossly exaggerated faces have given me nightmares. I'm never watching the show again for fear of seeing something else horrific.

Fairly OddParents had pretty bad seasonal rot, in that the people (AJ, Chester, Trixie, Tootie, Vicky, etc.) who interact and challenge Timmy are gone, replaced with cheap wish fulfillment like Sparky, Poof, Chloe.

Any show continued with a new art design. The ones off the top of my head are Dexter's lab and Ben 10.

Johnny Test is also an example of seasonal rot: it went from mediocre trash to god fucking awful trash. Its impressive that it started out rotten and became more rotten for 10 years.

Futurama in my opinion. It just used to be another cartoon comedy, but then they shipped lela and fry, and started making it all sad and sentimental for some weird reason.

I didn't bother with Boondocks s4 because I knew Aaron wasn't writing. He WAS the show.

Season 4 was fine. I can't help to think the reviewers shit on it because of the politics of Mcgruder's departure and the fact that a white woman was writing most of the episodes.

I thought Futurama had some genuinely good emotional moments. Like where Fry remembers his relationship with his brother.

But Futurama post-revival was definitely a bit more hit and miss with the Fry and Leela on-again off-again relationship.

The newest seasons have been pretty good, but that's compared to everything else now and the past seasons. Compared to the best seasons it's not as good, but compared to seasons 14-23, we're doing pretty well now.

>>93459347
The last seasons really suffered from having a fraction of the budget. They kept the animation quality up, but you could tell they didn't have as much writing talent around and had CC trying to force them to make it a certain way.

Duckman stands out in my mind as a show which suffered from this. Its first two seasons were absolutely fantastic, the third season was mostly good, but by the fourth and final season you can tell the show was creatively spent and was just coasting to its inevitable, bland end.

Never heard the term seasonal rot for really shitty one-off seasons. I like it.

Probably the fourth season of SU. I still liked it and all but Jesus Christ the pacing was a hot mess. All the more unforgivable for its inconsistent release schedule.

When they say "new Spongebob", they mean "NEW Spongebob". The most recent season has been watchable. Not nearly as good as the first three seasons, but you don't immediately regret watching it.

That's so sad, too. I remember in 2008 The Simpsons were still beloved and I was in the minority for thinking it was going downhill, at least amongst friends and family. Then people realized it was shit and there was the concern that, if it kept going, it'll be bad for as long as had been good.

Then we passed that point.

A great setup that got completely trashed for a bigger and shittier story. After the Inquisitor from S1 died and Ashoka showed up again it all went downhill from there. Now it's just about cramming as much clone wars shit into each season and the inevitable buildup to rogue one's events.

More like the Mandalore plot got clumsily inserted, and is now taking over half the main plot, along with some sort of battle on Lothal. Rogue one is just teasing and connections. Mando's, and some pointless episodes in season 3 are more bothersome.

I'm not sure why, but after Season 7 of American Dad it just felt like the helium had left the balloon. Where there had been strings of banter coupled with quite witty back and forth snark, there was now just expositional dialogue that maybe would come with a sight gag or a quip after a minute of setup, which half the time wasn't even that funny.

Probably wasn't as bad as Family Guy's nosedive but it hurt more to have it happen to such a better show.
