5 TV Shows That Fell Off a Cliff After an Incredible First Season (#1 Still Really Hurts)

It’s a familiar habit for devoted fans to pinpoint when a TV show starts to decline, particularly when later seasons are noticeably worse.

Deadline reports that a duo has launched Multitude Productions, a new production company focused on genre films and television. Their first project?
