I think some traces started to show in Season 6, but Season 7 is where the show lost its footing. I like the season, but it's flawed and showed it was time to stop.

Season 6, definitely. Felt like they lost interest and were just going through the motions by that point.

Every single season has some bad episodes in it.
But the only time when the number of bad episodes completely overwhelmed the number of good ones is in Season 7.

Season 6 had an overwhelmingly amount of bad episodes compared to good ones. I could barely sit through it.

Agreed. Seasons 6-7 showed the series going downhill.

I kind of agree. Even though seasons 6 and 7 were the weakest seasons of the show, they both still had some great episodes. Just like, as others have pointed out, the seasons before the last two had some bad episodes.

It starts to run out of gas during season 5.

Season 6 for sure. Definitely a step down in quality guest stars too.

That didn't even occur to me but you're right, it seemed like even celebrities had no interest in appearing on the show.

Season 6. I actually don't think the decline from S6 to S7 is all that big, but you really notice the difference watching season 6 after you watch 5 (one of the best seasons).

Yep, as others have said Season 6 was the big decline. There were plenty of clunkers in the first 5 seasons, but 6 had more clunkers than non clunkers. It was also that much more noticeable coming off one of the strongest seasons.

Seasons 1-5 had some bad episodes but the number of good ones was definitely far higher. 6 is when the bad episodes outnumbered the good ones, IMO.
I'd argue the few good episodes of 6 and 7 (Comes The Dawn, Doctor Of Horror, Staired In Horror, Horror In The Night, etc.) almost feel like they could be leftover episodes from the first five seasons that were released later.

I came on here to find out what was up with season 7. Why so much British crap? British characters are awful in horror.

I'm not sure, someone may have more knowledge about the subject than me, but I believe the whole emanating from The U.K. in the last season was a cost cutting/saving move. Not sure, though.

I had no problem with the British cast and setting of Season 7, but the writing and entertainment value to a tremendous decline by then.

At least it went out with a bang with the final (and animated) tale "The 3rd Pig". I always wanted to see the Big Bad Wolf win for a change - and I got my wish.

I think it had a good run. Like any series, it has its share of dud episodes.
7, however seemed to be the one season where there was more bad than good. So I would say the final season was the show at its worst. But I did still like some episodes from the season. The ones I liked may be an unpopular opinion.
The Kidnapper
Horror in the Night
Slight Case of Murder
Last Respects was ok, but not great.
It's been a min. since I watched my DVDs, but I think my personal favorite season was 5.

I wouldn't even say the show was on its' last leg when it reached season 6; but it certainly should have ended after the 6th season. Season 7, in my opinion was awful, and it felt like a totally different show.
