Idk if this is the worst per se but a good example is Russian Doll.

When I see questions like this I'm not just thinking of shows that had a good first season but then a step down in quality. There are lots of shows like that.

I'm thinking of shows where the first season completely stands on its own, perhaps even intended to be a miniseries, but for whatever reason a second season is greenlit.

Russian Doll had a fantastic first season that told its own story. The second season just felt unnecessary and was pretty forgettable.

Not to mention the awkward retcon that erased the ending of season one with a single line of dialogue.
