Later seasons of HBO's prison drama Oz had storylines about a drug that made you age and a dude being possessed by the ghost of a priest.

I don't care what anyone says, the later seasons of Oz are still entertaining as fuck, even with all their complete ridiculousness. The aging pills thing gets brought up a lot, but I don't even think it was that bad, plus there were only about 15 minutes total spent on it.

Thank you, Season 6 is a very flawed season due to how they were married to the having the big moments in the penultimate and finale episodes. It feels like they're just killing time waiting for BATB in the penultimate and Cersei to blow everyone up in the finale. The High Sparrow plotline's events are mostly done by the end of season 5 in my opinion and they're just spinning their wheels for a whole season.

When Pretty Little Liars had characters wear masks that looked like other characters actual real life faces.

PLL jumped the shark the moment they revealed Ali was alive, the way they explained what happened the night she disappeared and how her and like 3 other blonde girls were wearing the same yellow top was just bordering on insulting to the audience.

Heroes Season 2. I'm sure there was a lot of reasons but I think the writer's strike is what helped kill it's momentum

Sleepy Hollow had already been meandering and pointless for a lot of the second season, but then there was an episode where they just full on ended the ongoing storyline. The next episode was basically the characters going "what do we do now?" the rest of the season was MOTW episodes not connected to anything, and after all that, which was pretty clearly the network stepping in after all the meandering, they fired the showrunner, season 3 was like a bad USA show, and in 4 one of the leads left and it wasn't even set in Sleepy Hollow anymore. Oh, and there was a Bones crossover. So yeah, that's my answer - wrapping up the main conflict 11ish episodes into season 2.

Must be the last season when Eric left and Randy showed up, but they still hung out in the Foreman's basement. Randy sucked.

As soon as Michael left the Office, that was the end.

Carrell was such a linchpin for the show’s ensemble that the writers had literally no idea what to do to replace him. So they simply assassinated Andy and made him an incompetent idiot, despite his well-educated character being the total opposite. The show doesn’t recover in those last two seasons, though the finale wrap-up is pretty good.

Another one that comes to mind is Buffy dying in S5.

The beginning of S6 is about all the good that comes from it. Then everything nosedives, character personalities are completely decimated, plot lines make way less sense than they ever did, and the villains become so much less interesting. You don’t care because what are they gonna do, kill her again? The Potentials being terribly uninteresting in S7 is just the icing on the cake.

Not for the whole show but the Mitchell and Cam area of Modern Family jumped the shark once Cam thought Mitchell was cheating on him in the S6 finale.
