House of Cards. At its height (around season 2 to 3, I'd say), it was one of the best shows on TV, and r/television was all over it. Then real life became more interesting and outpaced what the show could keep up with, Spacey was outed as a predator, and the writing fell off a cliff. Now nobody ever talks about it.

It's less about the "real life" thing and more because they had no idea how to write an interesting show about Frank as President and Season 3 became bloated and boring. There were a lot of comments on this very sub about how people had trouble paying attention to Season 3.
