What's a show that should've gotten cancelled or ended SOONER than it did?

Too many “what got cancelled too soon” questions, what’s a show that went on too long?

Hard mode: no The Walking Dead

The 2020 Dracula Netflix show.

The first episode is a fun reimagining of the original story. The second episode is a neat “reverse who-done-it”/bottle episode. The third episode should not exist. Full stop. “Dracula wakes up in modern times and it turns out his weaknesses are just PTSD and then he chooses to die out of honor or something.”

Penny Dreadful

The second season ends on a fantastic melancholy vibe that matches the whole tone of the show. The third season wastes all character development to have extra drama.

Dracula episode 3 was one huge disappointment. I remember being totally hooked from episode 1 until that end of episode 2. All that potential, wasted

Penny Dreadful, such a waste. There was really something there.
