There's a whole bunch of articles and posts about the whole rating system and its flaws. With that being said, however, I do think the show has unfortunately lost some popularity. Personally, I still love the show and the direction it is going in but I can understand why some people are not as enchanted by it as they once were. It's just not the same show it was back in season 1 and 2. There are a bunch of new characters, new relationships, and new dynamics. Each season, popular characters end up leaving the show. Plus a million plotlines shoved into a twelve episode arc has led to some plotholes, things not getting fully developed etc.
