no season 1 was pretty bad too

Not saying that only season 1 is good but in my experience season 1 tends to be the best season for the majority of shows because the creative vision is most pure and focused, and all of the best ideas are put forward first, and there's no fanservice. Examples off the top of my head:
>Game of Thrones
>Breaking Bad (controversial one)
>Rome
>Deadwood
>Mad Men

I really think that most shows wqould be better as long movies or at most miniseries.

GoT

Sopranos and FarScape definetly 'matured' after season 1 and became alot better. Breaking Bad too has completely different tone change.
>>
>>220671672
Almost all of them.
>>
>>220671672
Andor, and only the first half of season 1
I guess they'd intended to make a movie, but then realised the heist story was going to be too long so turned it into a series, but then had to pad it out
The heist story is really good, very engrossing. The squid game rip off was lame
Then season 2 was crap, too many separate character plotlines made it a disjointed mess

For worse.
>>
>>220672138
season 2 was k-k-k-k-k-kiiiino
>>
>>220672278
it is progressively worse though. They don't even bother with a good s1, just a lukewarm synopsis in ep1, a bunch of filler until the last ep and a mild cliffhanger. That's the current hook meta. Normal people feel insulted, zoomers just don't care
case in point: Pluribus

West world

S1 is the WORST season of Lost
>>
>>220672278
GoT was solid for 3 seasons, decent for the 4th, and I dropped it in the 5th. Glad I did. I don't even like Stannis or hate Danaerys but the way Benioff and Weiss handled each was fucking garbage. That's just one example.

Westworld

>>220672326
In my experience, this is more common with comedies. They tend to need a season or two to figure out character dynamics and their specific style of humor.

Westworld is a perfect one season miniseries ending on a unnerving open ending that leaves your mind to wander, but it never needed more than that. But mouthbreathers need "the lord explained" videos from youtubers.

Sad but true. That’s what happens when HBO brings the hammer down and you have to condense your plans for seasons 2-5 into a single season.
