I’ve seen something similar posted before, and I don’t think that light green does justice to the quality of the later episodes.

Generally anything in the 6 range of IMDB is bad, 7 is average/good, 8+ is good/great.

I think this show has been bad for ages now, but there are plenty of decent shows/movies on IMDB in the 6 range.

But that's the problem. For some reason tv show episodes get voted higher relatively speaking. So a 7.0 movie is kinda ok, but a 7.0 tv episode is probably pretty bad.

I guess it comes from the pool of people who vote on series are more inclined to liking it, since they somehow got to watch a season 3 episode. If they hated the show as they probably wouldn't get that far. Movies are one-off by design and anyone could watch and rate it, obviously.
