For me, it was The Walking Dead. It obviously suffered seriously quality decline over its run - but because it was so long, I could've instead watched so many other shows instead.

Weeds. The show is ultimately so unsatisfying. I hated the main character by the end. Seemingly immune to any real consequences.

Weeds was a tough one for me too. She was not likeable, not one bit. No real self awareness, super shallow.

Great answer. Weeds went on for so long and was only interesting for like one season. And it went nowhere

I think you just said the thing I was trying to find in my comments. There's no real payoff. It goes nowhere.

Wasn’t that the point of the show though?

To hate the main character? Flawed characters are one thing, it's another to show how the character fucks up the lives of everyone around her and she walks away smiling from it all as she basically fucks her way out of trouble. It's been years since I watched it so I might not remember exactly, but even her family doesn't really turn on her in the end.

Almost exactly what I think about this show.
