While it’s not uncommon for TV shows to have bad episodes, not all of them are bad enough to ruin the entire show, but some of them are. It’s rare when a TV show has no bad episodes, as even some of the best TV shows of all time do or have entire seasons that don’t match the quality of the rest.

Usually, a bad episode is just a bump in the road of a TV show, such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer ’s “Beer Bad”, and it doesn’t affect the rest of it. However, there have been some cases where an episode was so bad that it ruined the entire show, no matter if it was the final episode or there was still more to go after it.
