You have to constantly dead head the faded blooms on pansies. Make sure to feed them every couple of weeks if they are in the ground, and every week with a diluted feed solution if they are in planters. If you don't deadhead religiously, the plant will go to seed and look spindly and sick. As much as I love looking at healthy pansies, I don't like the maintenance required in owning them, so I avoid them entirely. Keep your pansy area small enough to manage.
Pansies are typically cool weather annuals. The ones that do not look so good could have just run their lifespan. Also could be heat and / or humidity. Here are a couple links for you.

Pansies are cool weather annuals.Cut them back and keep watered,they should be fine once the season changes.
The deer prune mine expertly. No joke
Most importantly, pansies like cool weather! Pansies, like most flowers, do well when they are dead-headed ( pinch off spent blooms).
