Very few shows have smooth transitions when the original creator or writer leaves, whether it's live-action or animated.
For starters, I'm going to go with Dexter's Laboratory after Genndy Tartakovsky left. The first two seasons and the Ego Trip movie were great and had lively animation. After a hiatus, they made the boneheaded decision to revive the series under Chris Savino. Fucking terrible decision if you ask me. It became a different show after that. I like to pretend seasons 3 and 4 don't exist.
Also the show took an awful hit aesthetically too, when it transitioned to digital animation for those seasons. The visual style just seemed bland and dead for me.
Anyone have certain shows in mind, or ones that transitioned well?
