MST3K season 3. First two seasons were kind of blah and felt like one of those good idea bad execution deals. But hit the ground running in S3 with Cave Dwellers. IMO, the show didn't fully hit its stride until Season 4. Manos, Day the Earth Froze, and Monster A Go Go are all among the show's best episodes. I don't think there's a single bad episode between late Season 4 and mid Season 5.

The first season of a show is almost always rough, because the writers are still getting the hang of the characters and stories. The ingredients for a great show are there, but they just can't seem to put them together. Then, the show finally hits its stride and reaches its full potential. TV Tropes even has a trope for this, called "Growing the Beard", which gets its name from Star Trek: The Next Generation, when the show's improvement in quality coincided with Riker growing a beard. Funny enough TNG still had more bad (or at least not good) than good episodes in the first year Riker had the beard. TNG really started showing what it could do with "Measure of a Man".

Seinfeld: "I HAD A PONY!!!" What an odd choice. I’d go with the Chinese Restaurant or the Contest.

Seinfeld: "I HAD A PONY!!!" Sorry, I’ve always thought that show (outside of “The Contest”) was nothing but ass. I thought it was a waste of Alexander and JLD.

Season 2 ended with a clipshow and Season 3 ended with "The Best of Both worlds." That really tells you everything you need to know.

I think that clip show is the only episode of any of the Star Trek series (up to the second season of Voyager) that I never bothered to watch.

It sounds silly, but Fresh Prince for some reason seemed a lot better when they re did the set of the house

The Thick of It really hit its stride after the first two series. They did a couple of specials with some new characters ( mainly because the main star of the show had been caught with some extremely illegal stuff on his computer) and it flowed better than Series 1 and 2. Then they brought in Rebecca Front for Series 3 and it became the best BBC comedy of the 21st Century (with the possible exception of The Office). The numerous references he makes to such scandals in-character didn't really help matters in hindsight.
