I'm curious about what show you're talking about. For me, it's often about the journey and not the destination. Even if I don't love every part of a show, there's enough that I do enjoy. People rag on Dexter post-season 4, but I find enough that I enjoy that if I do a rewatch, I still watch 5-8. The bad endings get easier to deal with over time. If I never end up rewatching a show where I found the ending lackluster, I still choose to focus on what it was that I enjoyed in the run up to the finale.
