Bonus for if they did it while the show aired.
One of the worst offenders has got to be Robert Beltran of Star Trek Voyager. He repeatedly trashed the show while it aired, so much so that Kate Mulgrew publicly told him to STFU. Combine that with Jeri Ryan being treated like shit (mostly by Mulgrew) and that must have been one happy set.
Another Trek veteran who ripped their show was Jolene Blalock of Enterprise. She blasted the ending (who didn't hate that ending?) but also ripped the producers for making T'Pol "weak" and a drug addict. then again she married well so she has no fucks to give.

Constance Wu posting on Twitter how upset she was that Fresh off the Boat got renewed is something she will never be able to live down.

Damon Wayans kind of trashed Lethal Weapon after the whole Clayne Crawford debacle. He dissed him and dissed the show on social media.
Warner Brothers had to beg him and make concessions for him just to do 2 extra episodes after he said on YouTube he was quitting the show.

The first Aunt Viv from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. To this day Janet Hubert trashes the show and Will Smith. The rest of the cast and crew were tight.

Katherine Heigl announcing she had removed her name from the Emmy race one year because the writing for her Grey's Anatomy character wasn't worthy of award consideration.

There's no shortage of America's Got Talent judges (Stern, Union) and hosts (Cannon) trashing that show.

Paulie Perrette talked about what she felt was a toxic environment on "NCIS" but didn't spell everything out for a while. It turned out to be about Mark Harmon's dog biting a crew-member, though I'm sure there was more to it (to her, at least) under the surface.

I think there is a big difference between someone trashing a show they were fired from versus someone trashing a show while they are currently in the show and it's airing and they are in good standing (other than the trashing) with the show/network

Robert Reed was very hard to work with on the Brady Bunch as he thought working on such a silly show was beneath him and often locked horns with producers and directors. He had gotten so bad, he refused to be in what would be the final episode of the show. He was going to be replaced had there been a sixth season, but ABC decided to cancel it altogether. None of this came out until years after the show was over, saying he only did the show for financial reasons.

If he hated working on that show so much, I don't get why he came back and did all the spin-offs, the variety show, the Christmas movie and the failed late 80's revival. Originally Posted by Sonny Corinthos

In the early 60's, Jackie Gleason hosted a quiz show called "You're In The Picture". Celebrity guests would stick their heads through holes in a picture tableau and try to guess what scene was being depicted. It only aired one episode, because it was truly terrible. Gleason came out the next week to a bare stage, smoking a cigarette and telling the audience, "We laid a bomb, last week", admitting how bad the show was, and joking about it. It ended it's brief run as a talk show hosted by Gleason.

Sure but limiting it to people that trash their own show while they're on it, that would make for a very short thread.Originally Posted by Original Desmond

There's the whole Mandy Patinkin/Criminal Minds fiasco, although I'm not sure Mandy said anything while he was still on the series.

Ruth Wilson didn't exactly trash The Affair but left under weird circumstances that she couldn't talk about, then it leaked it was about a "hostile work environment" and being pressured to do nudity:

I don't think she publicly maligned 7th Heaven, but the rumor was that Jessica Biel did the infamous Gear magazine shoot to get fired from the show. I think she also cut her hair without telling them first.

He didn’t trash the show at the time he quit. He left with the vague excuse of “creative differences”. But he later trashed the show in a NY Magazine interview.Originally Posted by Shannon Nutt

In his book Growing Up Brady, Barry Williams included letters Robert Reed had written to the showrunners. One I remember was where Reed listed the various forms of comedy (like "farce"), and how none of them fit The Brady Bunch. I mean, it's the friggin' Brady Bunch. Kids do something dumb, Mike and Carol offer parental advice, eventually the kids do the right thing. Credits. It in no way needed the analysis Reed was giving it.Originally Posted by Sonny Corinthos

Chakotay could have been a fascinating character, but unfortunately the show runners hired a fraud to advise them on Native American culture. It's why Chakotay's "tribe" and family info are such a mess in the show. Originally Posted by Traxan

I was never big into Brady Bunch, but that does seem odd. Some TV is meant to be silly fun, and others are more serious. Originally Posted by Paff

He loved the kids and every chance he had to help with new projects for them, he joined in (despite how he felt about the creators). Rumor has it, he actually loved working on the Variety Show in the 70s. Originally Posted by DJariya

He did save their lives, after all. (Also from Growing Up Brady), in the late episode at the amusement park, the crew mounted a camera to the front of the roller coaster. The kids all got on, but Reed made the crew do a test run with no one aboard, and when the coaster came back the camera mount had crashed into where they all would have been sitting.Originally Posted by The Valeyard
