Worst TV Shows

[gwnn]

no you don't :)

Fox News. Those people are either hypocritcal to the nth degree (they can't really believe all the &^%$#@#  they spout, can they?), or they are so incredibly ignorant that it defies all logic/reason.

I hear this often, can you give a few examples?

Just about everything they say.

I'm showing my age, but I actually remember when MTV played music videos.

 

Hard to believe, I know.

It has little sense to talk about spannish shows you'll never know, about americans:

 

Lost

Prison Break

Cold Case

 

I really hate those 3. Specially lost and all the foolishness that people has created around it.

I don't see how someone can really talk about "worst". A lot is really stupid, but who watches something they think is stupid? For most disappointing, I might nominate White Collar. In the first episode, this FBI guy calls his wife to say he will not make it home for dinner. The wife is very understanding, perfectly calm. Then there is a camera pan to the dining room table with their dog on the chair, gulping down the guy's dinner. It broke me up. The show took a steep downhill plunge from there however.

 

For a show that has overstayed its welcome, I nominate Saving Grace. I really liked the concept. Grace (Holly Hunter), a hard drinking promiscuous cop with no use for religion runs a guy down, gets out of the car, realizes what she has done and says something like "Lord help me". An angel, Earl, appears and says, "What did you have in mind?". The prospect of saving someone's soul appeals to me, and Grace's soul is definitely a challenge, but after a fine start it has really been dragging.

 

The show that gets my nod as a surprise plus (I know, it's off topic) is The Good Wife. The plot, disgraced husband resigns government post, wife copes, sounds stupid but the writing and acting are, imo, first rate.

 

I have never watched mtv or Fox News. I am not the self-punishing type.

 

 

 

 

Oh, and then there is Hung on BBO. I saw a bit of it the other night. It's jut oh so shocking. Women say things like pussy right on tv. Such progress. You've come a long way baby.

Worst TV show, gotta be a toss-up between Frontline and any show that quotes the New York Times in a positive light.

Dwayne, you are starting to sound to the right of Atilla the Hun. B)

THAT'S A LOW PRICE.

An old Canadian show, The Beachcombers with Bruno Gerussi.

 

South Africa acquired this dreck on the cheap and in 97, I watched an episode dubbed into Zulu. That was an improvement.

[hrothgar]

There was some new romantic comedy starring Alyssa Milano.

From what I can tell, it lasted two episodes

[Aberlour10]

80er Latin American telenovelas, polish TV bought this crap because there was nothing cheaper on the TV market I suppose.

Wait wait wait. The world cup is being held in a country that thinks that all Canadians are like Relic????

There are no bad shows - only inept viewers.
