What's the worst television show you've ever seen? Mine is..

Post Reply New Topic

How could I forget late night phone-in quiz shows like The Mint/Quizmania? They've diseased late night TV.

There's no need to insult people just because they like a show that you don't. I think Fairly Odd Parents is really funny, personally.

As to bad shows, Mucha Lucha, a show on Cartoon Network about masked wrestlers, really scared me when I first saw. I still have no idea why that was. I was 15.

Um... I don't really like Cow and Chicken very much. It has some amusing parts, but mostly it's just painful to watch.

Speaking of painful, I can't stand most sitcoms, especially American sitcoms. British ones are usually easier to watch though.

I don't like reality shows or the Nick Jr. shows either.

Any reality based programme

especially big brother Australian or american idol ect

I partially agree with you there. When the series first started, it was a good show but I think Matt Groening should have quit doing the show in the mid 1990s which for me. I don't know how it stays on the air today.

I agree with you about Dr. Phil. My wife watches "Oprah," and one week Dr. Phil did what he called the "Get Real Challenge," in which a large group of people were locked in a room with him for a week and he basically abused them, put them down, etc. in an attempt to "help" them. To me, it looked like a week of cult style brainwashing, which I later learned the technique he was employing, Large Group Awareness Training(LGAT), wasn't much different from that.

The man things he knows everything, and his way is the only way. I'm sorry but one size does not fit all. Alot of people think the man is brilliant because he can solve these people's problems but here's the big difference between him and a mental health professional in real world practice. He probably has thousands of guests apply to be on his show, and him and his staff can pick and choose who gets "help" on his show, therefore he can pick the guests that make him look good or allow him to make them look bad. A real world practice doctor has to see who comes into his office looking for help and usually doesn't have the option of extensive prescreening and background checking a TV doctor like Dr. Phil does. A real world practice doctor can do nothing more than refer the patient to someone else if he is having no luck treating them, Dr. Phil has the option of showing you only the patients he can "treat."

Like Oprah though, most people sad to say, blindly follow him.

I think the worst possible show I've seen wad the Dr. Laura TV show, which died about as quickly as it came about, thank goodness. It was the same kind of moralizing and insulting people type behavior she does on the radio. I was channel surfing one morning on a day off from work and caught a segment where a child who didn't agree with his mother's rules regarding TV was put on the show. She basically made the child look like it was nothing and his views were totally irrelevant. To me, that was going kind of far. Thank goodness her TV show is gone and her radio show has dropped in popularity. Still, the damage has been done.

Live-In. The show was about an Australian nanny who moves into an American household. The acting was horrible and the dialogue was even worse. Worst dialogue ever. No timing whatsoever. The show must have aired around 15 years ago in the US. Mercifully, it lasted only a few episodes. I can't believe it lasted even that long. The network must have been banking on the looks of the female lead, who had only two other entertainment credits. No talent= no career.

Beverly Hills Vet. I thought veternians were supposed to be inteligent? Not goggly and stupid.

Hannah Montana, Sweet Life of Zack and Cody, That's so Raven, Lizzy Maquire... Di$ney quality has really fallen apart. Their "stars" are nothing but a bunch of teeny boppers and former child stars.

This channel called Noggin has all kinds of shows that promote all sorts of nasty teenage behavior. There was one called "Boys vs Girls" and it was utterly horrible. .

The absoutle worse show I have seen has to be Degrassi. . It discusses me to see teenage girls freaking out over supposed "cute" boys in real life. Why would I want to see it on television. Don't those girls know that kind of flirting could get them in serious trouble? The word cute is for meerkats and young animals, not human males.

Dirk Benedict from The A-Team is on this year's Celeb Big Brother!!

He can do so much better.

It would be easier for me to list what I do like. Most of today's television programming stinks. I hate talk shows, reality T.V., and most brainless sitcoms. Those CSI programs would give me nightmares if I watched them too much. I like Animal Planet, Discovery Health and track and skating programs.

I despise Reality TV with a passion, I find it to be nothing more than an excuse to see people making a complete ass of themselves on TV. If I wanna see that, all I need to do is go downtown Kent and see drunken college brats making complete asses of themselves.

I would rather see a good prime-time soap, or a good sitcom than a Reality show. I do admit I watch the Hogan one, only cause I am obssesed with Hulk Hogan, as he is one of my childhood heroes, as I am a child of the 1980s.

The crap they show in Nickelodeon especially sponge bob.

Anything that claims to be "Reality TV."

Yeah, that too.

But this would be cool:

Due to the popularity of the Survivor shows, Wyoming is planning to do its own version, entitled Survivor: Wyoming Style. The contestants will start in Cheyenne, travel to Lusk, Newcastle, Moorcroft, over to Gillette and down to Bar Nun and on to Hell's Half Acre. They will then proceed up to Worland, on to Meeteetse, then on to Shoshoni, Lander and Casper. From there, they'll proceed to Medicine Bow, Laramie and finally back to Cheyenne. Each will be driving a pink Volvo with a bumper sticker that reads: "I'm gay, I'm a vegetarian, I voted for Al Gore, George Strait Sucks, Hillary in 2008, Protect The Wolves, and I'm here to confiscate your guns!" The first one to make it back to Cheyenne alive wins.

I do not like reality shows, soap operas, religious shows, some talk shows, cartoons, infomercials, or todays sitcoms.

I like 80's sitcoms, and hannah montana and crafting shows. that's about it.
