It seems likely

With the exceptions, such as Breaking Bad, television series tend to get worse as time goes on. I'm currently starting Grey's Anatomy over again. I didn't watch the series to its conclusion the first time through because it just became unbearable.

However, the first show is seriously good. So maybe I'll just stop after the first season. :)

EDIT: Just found out that GA is in its 11 season. Netflix only streams 7 seasons. I didn't make it through season 5.
