Or is it another show that starts off awesome before jumping the shark and kind of redeeming itself at the end but it's not enough?

Some friends say that they skip one of the seasons towards the end and then come back for the finale season.

It is worth watching but it gets old and is repetitive both in subject content and the quirky references. When the bald guy became the big bad I checked out. Season 4 or 5. Never finished it.

By like season 3 it should be background filler more than attention-grabbing.

Made it through the second to last season. Will pick up the final season at some point.

But yea, it starts off awesome and then drops off.

These and the quick comebacks did me in about S3 or so. I cashed out and never went back.

If you can suspend reality long enough to believe multinational corporations are purchased in the morning and resold before bedtime, then this is the show you've been waiting for.

Seriously, it's really bad.

Starts out at top of mountain. First season or 2 are very good. Then it lights itself on fire and barrels down the mountain with no slowing till it hits a wall. I can’t believe how bad this got, so quickly, and then limped on for a couple more even worse seasons.

I only made it through a couple seasons, but the one thing that irritated me the most (despite generally enjoying the show) was the non stop witty quips that got so repetitive and played out quickly.
