What are the Television Shows you Hate the Most?

[MadBadger]

I was thinking about this question as my grandmother changed Olbermann (what she calls shit) to put on How I met your Mother. What are your top 5,10, whatever shows that you despise that are currently on TV?

1. American Idol
2. Two and a Half Men
3. How I Met Your Mother
4. John and Kate Plus Eight
5. The Hills

[hobbit709]

1. Any "reality" show

and any of the Sunday morning talking heads gabfests.

[jakefrep]

2. Survivor, Lost, 24

Can't say I see the redeeming value in any of those shows.

[ghostsofgiants]

16. No redeeming value at all in Lost?

Seriously? Intricate story telling, excellent character development, suspense out the wazoo...no, nothing at all good about that show.

[blue_onyx]

3. Dancing with the Stars

Half the people aren't stars (the girl from the Bachelor) and the other half are annoying people (Marie Osmond).

[Left Is Write]

4. Gee, two of my favorite shows are in your top five most hated.

[Mojambo]

5. Idol, Cops, Extreme Makeover, Every dancing show in existence

[applegrove]

14. I love "so you think you can dance".

[Bennyboy]

6. CSI Miami.

I can taske the rest of them but David Caruso is just tooo much to take. even with the hottest cast in TV this show is unwatchable.

[blueknight]

7. i hate

all reality shows,PERIOD!

[Mojambo]

8. OMG. I hate ALL the CSI shows... n/t

[Skittles]

21. they are unbelievable crap

their popularity is disturbing

[Initech]

25. I stopped watching CSI when they went from actually solving murders to finding the weirdest fetishes

[omega minimo]

26. Misogyny sells

:thumbsdown:

[Initech]

27. True, it does.

[azmouse]

9. I don't know if I could fairly give a list since

I haven't watched any of them to know what I'd really despise.

[GOPisEvil]

10. Who knows? I don't watch shows I hate.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

11. Hard to say, because I've never watched the ones that I think I'll really hate.

For example: American Idol, John and Kate Plus Eight, that show about the Duggars, Ice Road Truckers, etc. Of the shows I have actually ever watched, I pretty much hate CSI Miami because David Caruso is so dreadful, NCIS because most of the characters are annoying, Friends, because I've always thought it was just stupid, and Seinfeld, which was totally overrated.

[AwakeAtLast]

12. Real Wives of (insert city here)

:puke:

Keeping Up With the Kardashians
Girls Next Door

I think you get the idea....

[MadBadger]

13. There are no worse reality shows then Cable Reality Shows

[Initech]

20. Add "My Super Sweet 16" to that list.

Pretty much any show that focuses on spoiled rotten dipshits deserves to die in a fire.

[Scout]

42. same here, that Real Housewives shit has taken over Bravo.... n/t

[tabbycat31]

15. HGTV and Faux News

[ghostsofgiants]

17. The Hills by far.

Basically any reality show, save for Paranormal State, which rules. I especially hate reality shows that glorify the most vapid, useless rich fucks in existence.

[Morning Dew]

18. I thought I knew "TV show hate" until tonight's premiere of IACGMOOH

That is - "I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here."

[Initech]

19. 24/7 network news

And it's not even fuckin' news half the time. :puke:

[dana_b]

22. any of the Lifestyles of the Famous and Rich

celebrites type shows that VH1 plays along with Cribs. Talk about pushing the grotesque material world on young people! These shows can make some feel like they need to get that kind of life in order to be important or happy.

Generally most of the shows on either VH1 or MTV are crap as they have nothing to do with music anymore.

[XemaSab]

23. Property Virgins on HGTV

I just want to slap that bitch. x(

[Iggo]

24. Reality shows. TV news. "Judge" shows.

[Vidar]

28. All "reality" shows, particulary those that have taken over A&E, Dicovery & The History Channel.

[Tabasco_Dave]

29. Entertainment news shows

ET, Access Hollywood, and E network. I want to be entertained by celebrities, i don't care about their screwed up personal lives, i have enough problems in my own life to worry about. I also hate reality shows.

[jennygirl]

30. Anything on TLC!

It used to be informative and she interesting things. Now my new name for TLC is The Litter Channel with all the families of multiples that degrade the station.

[timtom]

31. Let's approach this a different way:

Let me list the tv shows I LIKE. (I'll just list fairly recent ones)

Remington Steele
Frank's Place
Twin Peaks
Briscoe County, Jr.
Joan of Arcadia
Gilmore Girls
Life on Mars (Original British one)
Supernatural
Jack of all Trades

That's about it.

[Patiod]

41. Frank's Place!

I didn't think anyone had ever watched that. I've tried to describe it to people, and they just look at me blankly. Wonderful show, wonderful writing, acting, casting. I knew it couldn't last, but it was cut off WAY too early.

[timtom]

44. And, last time I checked

it still wasn't available on dvd.

[clyrc]

32. Disney Channel stuff

My ten year old comes home and watches the Disney channel shows while she has a snack and they are wretched. She claims not to like it either, but she wants to watch it daily. Other than that, I don't really watch things I hate.

[BlueIris]

33. Definitely "American Idol," "The Hills," the new incarnation of 90210, and

any and all versions of "A Baby Story" and "Bringing Home Baby" on the evil TLC.

[MissMillie]

34. I hate most TV but some of the stuff I find most offensive:

Any show where some rock star or rapper (or even virtual nobody) tries to "find love" among a group of prospects that in no way represents real people.

The Real Housewives of whatever city

BRIDEZILLAS!!!! (as if anyone would want to watch someone have a childish meltdown over every minute detail of their wedding (as if the wedding were more important than the actual marriage--if I were the groom, I'd think hard on whether I wanted to live w/ someone like this))

Cooking shows that don't involve inventive/interesting food/flavor combinations -- meaning all the stupid cake decorating challenges (no one even uses frosting anymore).

O'Reilly/Beck/Hannity/Fox and Friends

Any show that emphasizes a couple that has no concept of birth control

Make Me a Top Supermodel

Fishing w/ Charlie Moore (I have recently discovered fishing as a means of stress relief, but this guy is a total asshole)




(I guess I have to stop at some point.... but in all honesty, I could fill the whole board up. For the most part I watch Olbermann, baseball, Jeopardy, Iron Chef, and reruns of The West Wing, Roseanne and The Golden Girls.)

[Initech]

36. I'd add a few categories:

- Any show that focuses on stupid, spoiled, rotten, whorish kids (Paris Hilton's My New BFF, My Super Sweet 16, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, The Hills)

- Reality dating shows (X guy here has to date a 32 year old professional Amsterdam prostitute!)

- Make me a *insert profession here*

- Rehab shows

- Any show that acts as an hour-long commercial for some sugar-flavored insanely high caffeine content energy drink

- NASCAR

[ScreamingMeemie]

35. Television isn't worth hating.

And I don't fancy myself a snob, so nothing really.

[petronius]

43. Good answer. There are things that have captured my interest, so I watch them;

things that have not engaged my interest, so I don't watch them; and a far larger number of things that I've never seen or heard of.

Even the things that make me dive for the remote don't rise to the level of 'hate'...

[Bertha Venation]

37. I don't know - I don't watch them.

:rofl: I crack myself up. No one else, of course, but that's okay.

[rurallib]

38. FUX NEWS

[Sequoia]

39. No,. 3

That Doogie Houser guy seems like a mean person. Never liked him.

[NJmaverick]

40. American Idol

I hate what the concept that people think musical fame can be given out as a game show prize. It explains the decline of the music industry (while they try to blame music downloaders).
