There's a thread on TV shows US about which shows US shows you've stopped watching, so thought I'd start a similar one for UK shows. [My apologies if there already is a thread like this - I looked but couldn't find one].
I've stopped watching James Martin's Saturday Kitchen - plus avoid all other cooking shows.
BBC's Breakfast - seems to have gone flat since moving to Manchester (not the fault of Manchester, of course, but possibly because of some of the presenters they now have).

I could do a list, but it can be summarised as anything with david walliams or james coeden in. And quite a lot with dawn french or gryff jones.
I stopped watching S2 of This is Jinsy halfway through.
I haven't watched Ep6 of Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle but it's still in my planner.
I have epsiodes of James Martin's Home Comforts and the new Sprink Kitchen on my planner but not sure if i'll ever get around to watching them.
Saturday Kitchen I pick and choose from guest chefs and recipies as to whether I watch it. I can usually get through it in 30mins or less.
Corrie St has become Deadheaders [oops I mean Eastenders] with northern accents, so although I may still view it if it happens to be on, it has been removed from my series link..
Stopped watching Strictly Come Dancing half way through the last run.
Also running out of steam with Downton Abbey. Not sure I'll want to watch the next series.
Lorraine Kelly
BGT, X-Factor, Strictly
Anything to do with antiques
Deal or No Deal
Countdown (but will watch again if they ever replace that terrible Nick wotsisname)
Corrie, Emmerdale, Eastenders
I'm a Celebrity
Coronationation Street
All of the above about 3 years ago, never looked back since.
Sheer poetry
I will never stop watching Corrie - but have turned off X Factor for the last few seasons.... neither, did I watch the final DOI.....
Edit: Mr Selfridge.
BGT after first episode of first series.
XFactor after the way Danyl Johnson was treated.
(although I will watch the odd act on YouTube if there's a lot of fuss about it).
And when they bring back Broadchurch, I probably won't watch it after the disappointment of the way they wound up the first series.
Me too, round about the time the scriptwriters were relying too much on nutty David Platt storylines and real life stories were in danger of being lost in favour of surreal and unlikely scenarios.
Pity really, because I liked the Roy and Haley characters.
Stopped watching The Apprentice after they started looking for media careers out of it and couldn't care less whether they won or not.
That left Emmerdale and Coronation Street - those dropped-out some years later largely because there were just so many episodes every week, I eventually stopped bothering. The only soap I still follow is an Australian one, Home and Away, which is something of a guilty pleasure based on my mum watching it when I was a child, and enjoying the stunning scenery (I visited the beach last year - very surreal
I watched Silk last year but couldn't be bothered with it this last series, but otherwise I'm quite tolerant, but mostly because there's so much I don't bother with to begin with. I tend to just catch-up on shows if they receive strong critical praise, and follow from there.
