Then around season 15 people were like "wait a minute... why though?" and realized that there was actually no point in watching a show that they knew had been halfway semi-decent at it's very best for several years already, and so they finally dropped the show and never looked back except for fondly remembering seasons 1-8 and keeping them alive through endless quoting and internet memes.
Yet season 15 is still remembered and looked upon as one of the best post-classic Jean seasons so it may even have grown in estimation (and episode reviews at the time, such as when looking at the rate & review threads, were often actually quite decent to good) but I don't doubt there were many who dropped the show around 14 & 15 and only kept on remembering the good times of the classic first 8 or so seasons.
