The show you wish never existed


Is there one TV show whose existence you would like to wipe all traces of off the planet and the pages of history?

For me that show is The Big Bang Theory. I wish it was never born. I hate it so much. Which show would you undo if you could?

Mrs Brown's Boys
Big Brother
Hollyoaks
Songs of Praise
Coronation Street
Heartbeat
Bergerac
Casualty

Funny you should mention Mrs. Brown's Boys. My boyfriend loves it and I just saw some episodes for the first time and hated it. He also likes Big Bang Theory.

It's terrible Pete, I cannot stand it with a passion.

Mrs Brown's Boys - I had a colleagues who lurved it and she used to tell me in detail every second of that show. Killed it for me.

It's one of the reasons i don't pay my TV License, They're forever knocking at my door. As for Bergerac it's more of the theme tune that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

The Charmed reboot. The original was in no way perfect, but the reboot is just completely awful.

reply

Wow, this is the first I've heard of it. Doesn't sound great.

reply

They changed a lot in the sister dynamics and made it a murder mystery and it just has that cheesy teen drama feel that all shows have nowadays. Nothing really sets it apart from shows out now. The actresses try to make it work, but there’s only so much you can do with poor writing.

reply

The reboot didn't swap the women for three men. Funny that. Guess some doors only swing one way.

The X Factor
Britain's Got Talent
Keeping up with the Kardashians

Kardashians! Seconded

Kardashians! Third! What a waste of time.

Don't know about TV show that I wish never existed.. but I can talk about one that is overrated?

it is "Riverdale", and that's just my personal opinion. Acting is to obvious, ,storyline is cheassy and trivial. Characters are making it look like that, they behave like I would behave in my imagination when I was 10 or 11 years.. I felt kined embraced when I was watching it. So I don't understand why are people
obsessed with that TV show. The big bang theory 10x better, no?

Maby I am wrong, and if I am correct me :)

All the ridiculous cooking talent shows. With singing or dancing I get it, we can also hear and see their performances.

Cooking talent shows, on the other hand, are totally bollocks. We can't taste the food. We can't smell them either.

It's like watching American Idol but we only see how they apply their make ups and donning the costumes, and when they finally start singing, we don't hear any sound.

It's absurd. It's the most useless but highly popular tv show ever.

reply

That is a really solid point. We have no idea if the good stuff is good, or the bad stuff is bad. I was pretty neutral on cooking competition shows until reading this post, but I don't think I'd ever be able to see one again without thinking about this.

You can flush reality TV right down the toilet. Some older ones

Archie Bunker's Place
After MASH
Fish

reply

I agree with all that, but I'll take it a step further. I don't even really like regular MASH. I know I'll catch flak for this one, just never liked it.

reply

Not even the first three season? The one with Leslie Nielsen is a classic.

reply

It was a bit before my time, and I never quite got it. When it was trying to be funny, I wasn't laughing, and when it was trying to be serious, I wasn't particularly engrossed.

That being said, I really haven't given it the chance it deserves, and I've come around to other things that I've long disliked.

reply

Reality TV shows for the win! Nothing but 💩 in my book.

reply

Ally Mcbeal.

reply

Really? I kind of like that one. I like the other David E Kelly stuff better, especially The Practice, but I don't dislike it. It's a bit cutsie perhaps.

reply

Couldn't stand the absurdity of the show, especially that dancing baby. And I thought all the characters were unlikeable, most of all Ally.

reply

The X-Files reboot

reply

If they didn't want it rebooted they should have given it a proper ending.
