What shows had awkward or otherwise poor returns from cancelations? (leminal.space)

When watching a show a while after it's released you can sometimes tell when a show was canceled because a season will end on a big (occasionally spiteful) event.

The following season after it's picked back up occasionally stumbles a bit but I'm wondering what examples can you think of that were especially bad?

Not really they just release specials every once in a while.

On August 5, 2021, Comedy Central announced that Parker and Stone signed a $900 million deal for extending the series to 30 seasons through 2027.[14] The deal also included a series of 14 films for Paramount+, which are released twice per year.[15] Parker and Stone later denied that the projects were films, and clarified that it was ViacomCBS (currently Paramount Global) which decided to advertise them as such.[16] Paramount+ advertises the projects as "exclusive events", and they are generally accepted to be television specials.[17] - Wiki
