The interesting thing is due to I guess the huge difference between the number of CBS viewers and Fox viewers in the early 90's, Knots in it's last seasons always beat 90210 (at that shows peak of popularity!) in the ratings (well not in the younger demo ratings I assume) http://www.thetvratingsguide.com/2020/03/1992-93-ratings-history.html

The end of Season 13 and 14 were big improvements. The short Val/Greg storyline was the best story Val had in years since she's probably the main character to suffer the most in the post-peak years. You know it's funny how the show was on for such a long time that it was competing with the 90's Fox soaps. by the end (well just for the first season of Melrose).

To me even though the show changes and has a really rough season 8, it always at least watchable to me until around the start of season 13. It takes a long time for the show to have a kind of "why are we still doing this?" feeling that I got from say Melrose Place as early as season 5.
