I don't mean stuff that was obviously bad on sight (to you) and so you didn't bother with, or even necessarily content you just checked out of before the first episode was done. But a series that you ultimately felt wasted your time and abandoned due to its total lack of quality.

Well I made it through it's abysmal season 2 so I didn't check out, but Helix from SyFy might take the cake for me as far as time wasted (on season 2). I liked season 1 quite a bit but in typical SyFy fashion of 15 years ago or whenever it was they had paid for season 1 and then waited to see how it did before deciding to purchase season 2. By that time a lot of the actors had moved on and I'm guessing a lot of the creative talent behind season 1 as well and season 2 was a shark jumping affair from the get go.

Season one was amazing. You have to wonder what went wrong.
