Bones (2005–2017)

I really enjoyed the first three and a half seasons before things went downhill. After the episode containing Max's trial (season 3 episode 13), things weren't as good. Brennan's actions and the outcome of the trial completely ruined the show for me and while I did continue to watch it my view was changed for the remainder of the show. I also absolutely did not agree with Angela's actions in that same episode. Pretty much my entire opinion of the show was wrecked in one single episode. Needless to say I was not happy but continued to view the series. There were also some inconsistencies. The man in the beginning who was an archaeologist (I can't remember his name) was said to be on a trip away but never returned after Cam was hired. Also Booth told stories involving himself and multiple girls under bleachers in high school but in an episode involving a star basketball player says the last time he was under bleachers was in the eighth grade. Despite these, I did like the premise of the series and found it mostly enjoyable.
