Not really. I still remember all the hype for season 6 or whatever, everyone and their mom hosting watch parties for the finale, and then all of them being massively disappointed because it apparently it sucked sooo bad lol
Most people find bad endings to retroactively taint the experience leading up to it.
If you don’t, cool for you, but it should be easy to see why most people end up less excited and positive about a work if it ends poorly
From there it should also be easy to see why someone might do the math and judge something with a poor ending will end up being a net negative despite the positive they experience along the way.
Yeah I dig that. I just feel if it’s an experience made up of multiple parts, just because the last one wasn’t as good shouldn’t distract from the rest. Like if you go bowling and you win every day 4 times in a row but came 3rd on the 5th day, it was still a good time overall.
If you go into life only wanting to experience perfection (not quite the word I’m looking for, but it will do) and avoiding anything less, you would be consciously missing out on great times.

Yesterday’s game doesn’t have a direct relation to today’s game. You could have those good games any time, or that bad game at any time. There’s no causal link to have a bad game one day retroactively ruin other games.
Season 1 absolutely has a relation, and impact, on Season 8. You can’t have one without the other, unlike your bowling comparison, so Season 1 can and is damaged by the existence of Season 8.

It’s not a great time, though, because Season 8 exists and everyone knows it now. That argument works better for shows that aren’t done yet, and thus we can’t know if they’ll actually be good or not.
Your loss lol

the Last season sucked but the rest are some of the best television that has been made. I refused to watch until last year and not mad I did
Yeah, so? You said you didn’t watch it so you lost out on the amazing ones too
That’s like saying “too bad you didn’t get drunk with us, you missed out on all the fun that happened before everyone threw up”
Exactly. Why ever gave a good time if it might be a little sucky at the end.

What if the games were part of a tournament, it’s related, and still means the same.
And TIL they made more seasons
Meh. Been there, done that. Nowadays I’d rather have a sucky time that might be good at the end.
Or a good time that ends with a bit of sucking. Hmmmm :D
Isn’t that why people smoke weed instead?
