Too soon:

GLOW
Utopia (the UK version)
Happy Endings
Freaks and Geeks
Popular (did anyone else watch this?)
Firefly
Too long
Big Bang Theory
The Simpsons
Master Chef
Sex And The City
TWD
Too long because started great but went suddenly downhill:
Westworld
Futurama
Arested Development (that final season omgwtf)
Game of Thrones
New Futurama is just as good as old Futurama. Fight me.
Arrested Developments Netflix seasons, though different from the original run in format, I found them enjoyable and worth rewatching.
Game of Throne's last half sucked but not because it went on too long, quite the opposite. The producers tried to rush the series to a quick finish so they could go do a Star Wars. HBO offered them extra seasons, they had plenty of source material they downright ignored or went against. The series was best when it was verbatim from the books. In the hands of someone who cared it could have been twice as long and quality all the way through. Obviously I'll die on this hill.
Couldn't agree more on the rest of your list. Westworld would have been a tight one season limited series.
Good point!
