I have to disagree with that... the quality dipped noticeably after S4, BUT it was still one of the best shows on TV. It just ended like a car crash. However, despite still being GREAT telly through most of its run, 4 - 8 just never hit the highs of 1 - 4. It's especially obvious if you go back and watch S1/2 again right after watching 7/8.

Well I have to disagree with YOU! the grandness and overall epicness was upped and kept being upped.

The Office UK was brilliant throughout.
Friends was great and I think as they grew into their characters it just got better and better imo.

Keeping Up Appearances was v consistent but then I guess it would be given that each episode isn’t all that different from the last

I think that most shows normally take a hit in quality as they get older.

The only exceptions for me are probably Star Trek: DS9, Farscape, and Parks & Recreation.

Yes even the three Gods in BSG, Dexter, and GOT took a hit for me personally.

I actually liked the ending of BSG. I know it got a lot of hate but I thought it ended fairly well. The final season of Dexter was TRASH... not even a gradual decline for Dexter... it was great until that last season and then it fell off a cliff. I mean, not as badly as GOT's "The Bells", but pretty darned close.
