6 awesome shows that got better after their first season

“Once you get past the first season, the show gets better.” If I had a nickel for how many times I’ve heard that phrase, I’d be a rich man. I’m not a saint, either. I’ve said it plenty of times, and I’m about to do it again with these six shows. It’s not that the shows listed below were terrible in the beginning. Quite the contrary. Most of them started fine, but they didn’t hit their stride until the end of the first season. In some cases, these shows were on the brink of cancellation.
