I’ve seen something similar posted before, and I don’t think that light green does justice to the quality of the later episodes.
Generally anything in the 6 range of IMDB is bad, 7 is average/good, 8+ is good/great.
I think this show has been bad for ages now, but there are plenty of decent shows/movies on IMDB in the 6 range.
But that's the problem. For some reason tv show episodes get voted higher relatively speaking. So a 7.0 movie is kinda ok, but a 7.0 tv episode is probably pretty bad.
I guess it comes from the pool of people who vote on series are more inclined to liking it, since they somehow got to watch a season 3 episode. If they hated the show as they probably wouldn't get that far. Movies are one-off by design and anyone could watch and rate it, obviously.
IMHO they’ve been doing good stuff for the last few seasons. It definitely jumped the shark back there somewhere when the seasons went double digits, but they’ve found a new niche.
