The Andy Griffith Show after Don Knotts left and it aired in color (the last 3 seasons).

My answer by a long shot. The show that I at one point was such a fan of that fell off so hard. Also the only show to my knowledge to botch a series finale not once but twice.
The character of Dexter Morgan is great and Michael C Hall is awesome in the role, but just a shit show after season five (four was the last truly great one but I still enjoyed five).

I should add that BILLIONS certainly seems heading here...ever since Damian Lewis was replaced by Corey Stoll (who is a good actor, but just not right for this series).

I haven't watched the reboot yet so only commenting on the original series. You could just watch the first four seasons and skip the rest of the years. Five is ok to me but Emmy winning stuff compared to the next 3 seasons. 6 and 8 are awful and unwatchable. And 7 is only tolerable because of the two guest stars.

Dexter and True Blood were the first to come to mind for me. I agree with Mike86 that season 4 of Dexter was the last great one and that 5 was still pretty enjoyable. The first half of 7 was a nice return to form, I thought, but seasons 6 & 8 were a kick in the pills for those of us who watched this show from the beginning. There was just no excuse for writing that poor. Such a shame. The first 2 seasons of True Blood were/are fantastic but the cracks in the writing began to show in season 3. It became a parody of itself after that. Again, such a shame for two fantastic shows to end up the way they did.
