Most overrated TV Shows

[Clerk]

Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead..... PERIOD.

[Sixx]

2 Broke Girls.

Actually, I have no idea what's the reception of this show but the fact it's still on is enough for me to qualify it as overrated.

[Clerk]

Not really a show but the NFL is overrated aswell

[Fignuts]

Lost

[Rammsteinmad]

Family Guy and American Dad.

[Tazz Dan]

Revenge

[screech]

Scandal

[MoFo]

Couldnt get into True Blood.

Guess vampires are for girls and gays tho.

[XL]

Agree with Walking Dead. Watched up to Season 2, Episode 3 and nothing seems to have happened.

You're wrong about Breaking Bad though.

Are you ready for some neg rep?! :fu:

[The Condor]

Anything produced by Seth MacFarland, Friends, and Parks and Recreation.

WOOOOOO RUGBY.

[DaveBrawl]

Probably anything NBC has ever labeled as must see tv.

[Raven Reaper]

UFC, All those X-Factor/American Idol shitfest.

[Bad News Gertner]

Arrested Development and Futurama

[Sixx]

Scrubs.

[Bad News Gertner]

Scrubs.

Yesx1000

[Cool King]

Am I allowed to say Game of Thrones, even though I've never watched a single episode of it?

[Requiem]

This thread is overrated.

[Vastardikai]

2 Broke Girls.

Actually, I have no idea what's the reception of this show but the fact it's still on is enough for me to qualify it as overrated.

There's two reasons this show is popular. Both reasons exist inside Kat Dennings' shirt.

There is noisy stopping you, but you'd probably come off looking like a pretentious twat if you did, given you have admitted to not watching a single episode.

[Sixx]

For some reason I was kinda hatin' on GoT before watching it a single episode, too.

Guess it was kinda irritating how people wouldn't shut up about it. Hence I knew most of plot twists before I even started watching.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

NFL:http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1K1INHGKNqQ/UJ2dguTnuwI/AAAAAAAAMMg/GsdH6P_k8jo/s1600/American+Football+v+Rugby.jpg

Just because the rest of the world can't afford pads and shit doesn't mean NFL players should play unprepared.

I'm sort of in the same boat.

That's why I brought it up. Pretty much everyone I know wouldn't stop talking about it.

I'm practically up to date on everything now, even though I've never watched it.

[Cool King]

Just because the rest of the world can't afford pads and shit doesn't mean NFL players should play unprepared.

I hope you're not being serious with that post.

[Destor]

to the NFL v Rugby talk: the velocity in football is mathematically exponentially higher. not comparable. tons of sports science studies on this. its amusing to razz NFL fans over, but to legitimately believe is a bit much.

[Seth82]

I agree that Walking Dead, Lost, Friends, Scandal, Revenge & Scrubs are overrated.

I would also add Glee, Two and a Half Men & Looking.

[Destor]

I love Glee so much that i'm gonna imagine punching you </3

[whiteyford]

Opinions are fun.

Come on, you're gay and you don't like a musical TV show?

[Seth82]

Come on, you're gay and you don't like a musical TV show?

lol nah I'm not a showtune queen.

[Sixx]

How about the other one, with two dudes raising a kid together? No?

[ron the dial]

lol nah I'm not a showtune queen.

i am and i still hate that show

[Seth82]

How about the other one, with two dudes raising a kid together? No?

Modern Family? The New Normal?

I find Modern Family to be incredibly overrated at times.

I never liked The New Normal.

[Sixx]

I meant Two and a Half Man, but whatever.

[Seth82]

I meant Two and a Half Man, but whatever.

that too is overrated.

I can't believe it has lasted as long as it has.

[Sixx]

Aw damn, just got neg repped by Mercenary, cause he apparently likes Scrubs.

[Lock Jaw]

Watched approximately ONE episode of both Mad Men and House of Cards.

Failed to hook me.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I think I pos repped you even though i disagree vehemently.

Yeah, I noticed. Because this thread is kinda about opinions, so yeah.

But whatever, Mercenary is a bitch and looks like a fucking gremlin.

[KIRA]

lol nah I'm not a show tune queen.

I love musicals but I hate glee how does that even work?

Does the show have to be on the air? If not then Firefly is my pick

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Because it's garbage. Good musicals usually have original songs rather than just remixes of popular songs. I haven't really watched Glee so I don't know if they have original songs but from what i've heard it's just remixes.

They don't. They also steal other people's reworkings of songs without giving them credit. See the Jonathan Coulton "Baby Got Back" debacle.

[slik]

Disagree on Breaking Bad

Agree on Walking Dead

Well, did Coulton pay Sir Mix-Alot?

[Drakul]

Pretty much anything people have fussed over these past few years has turned out to be over rated. I've had to sit through The Big Bang Theory multiple times. It really is just awful. How I Met Your Mother is another one. Both are forms of torture.

They are all pussies

Nothings as manly as two muscular men grappling, groping and mounting each other in nothing but tight little shorts. Sweat dripping from their brows as they roll and fumble on the ground togethor, panting and moaning to the point of exhaustion. ;)

I'm just having a little fun with you with my above text but, seriously, the sport does just scream repressed homosexuality among other things. I can't imagine anyone wanting to do it unless they had the need to prove their masculinity (small penis?) or were repressed homosexuals who didn't realise what they were doing was immensely homoerotic or they were genuinely stupid/unstable enough that they actually wanted to beat another person into a bloody mess.

From the out-of-ring personality of the guys I've seen talking, those above assumptions seem very very likely.

I'm not saying you shouldn't like it or watch it, of course.

[whiteyford]

Most combat sports are a little gay, they're fighting for a purse after all #70shomobanter #jimbowenwouldbeproud

Had the same problem with both of those.

Also, this is quickly degenerating into a "popular = overrated" debacle.

That must be on CTV or something. Never heard of it.

Modern Family. It's funny to me maybe 1 out of every 5 episodes I see. Not as "hilarious" as a lot of people say.

[Lock Jaw]

Hey... you. Reader of this post. Know that show you love? It is overrated.

[Sixx]

Modern Family. It's funny to me maybe 1 out of every 5 episodes I see. Not as "hilarious" as a lot of people say.

To be fair, I thought this was a regular show about a family (not sure how to call it) with only some humorous elements now and then.

[El Vaquero de Infierno]

Downton Abbey

It seems to get a lot praise, but it is just Sunday night fluff. I still watch it though, but I wouldn't call it great drama.

[Cool King]

The X Factor & Britain's Got Talent.

The X Factor is just a glorified karaoke competition and also a total waste of time if you think about, as the main point of the programme is that the winner receives a recording contract, but every year, the runner-up's and even third place get recording contracts too, which makes the competition pointless.

I think it's the only time I've ever heard of people receiving a competition prize, without even winning the competition.

X Factor and Got Talent are only worth watching at the very beginning with all the freaks and idiots.

Says the same person who thinks a post op transsexual male should be allowed to fight females. Now you are judging it based on the sex of the fighter?

Get the fuck out of here Lara Emily.

[Kris P Lettus]

It's also pretty hypocritical of you to call me a "closeted homosexual" as an insult.

[DAMN iNATOR]

How Big Bang remains popular is bewildering to me.

[Shisen Kopf]

Yeah Big Bang Theory is awful

[Ruien]

Two and a Half Men along with Vampire Diary.

I like the X-Factor UK and usually watch it online. Way better than any of the singing shows in the U.S. because it has a sense of humor and has more interesting auditioners and judges. Love the trainwreck acts like Jedward too.

[Bad News Gertner]

One Tree Hill

[Sixx]

There's been a lot of talk on these boards about One Tree Hill and I have no idea what the fuck that is. Checked wiki and imdb and I still have no clue.

I'm a happy man.

[The Mask]

Game of thrones is pretty overrated. Feel like I have to sit through about four hours of dull shit to see something cool happen. I've watched it all so far but it feels more like endurance than enjoyment a lot of the time. Plus the dragons look like they were cgi'd circa 1993.

[Mercenary]

Every show is overrated in some way. There argument ended.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Saying stuff is overrated is overrated.

[Mercenary]

Oh, yeah, the dragons look shit. I had a good laugh when they first showed up.

[Tazz Dan]

The fact that we're born to have different tastes makes it pretty much a given we'll find different things over-rated.

I love Big Bang, HIMYM, and Modern Family, but I like the type of humour used in the shows. I can easily see how it's not everybodies cup of tea though.

In saying that, I hate shows like Its Always Sunny In Pilliadelphia, Community, and 30 Rock, I can't sit through single episodes and find them to be over-rated.

[Heisenberg]

Big Bang Theory

How I Met Your Mother

The Office

I bet you hate them cause there's no laugh track.

[Lock Jaw]

There's no laugh track on 2/3 shows he said he loves.

[Sixx]

Only Modern Family has no laugh track.

Oh, ok. Completely forgot that HIMYM had a laugh track.

The exact opposite of this. Always sunny is awesome and big bang theory is the drizzling shits.

[Tazz Dan]

All American shows has laugh tracks, what are you talking about. It's one reason I can't watch a majority of US 'comedies'. 2 broke girls is a fine example.

This pretty much confirms everything I said is correct. USA #1 wooooooo

[The Mask]

How do you not like always sunny? It and South Park are the best things on tv by a mile.

[Bobholly138]

Seinfeld
Friends
Fresh Prince
Oz
Sopranos

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Sopranos isn't overrated.

[Clerk]

Bang theory is overrated as hell. I'm smarter than half the people on that show

[Bobholly138]

Sopranos isn't overrated.

It really is. I watched it as it aired and it was OK. Tried rewatching it and couldn't make it past the second season.

Most of the HBO dramas are over rated. Just because you can cuss and show tits doesn't make it a good show.

Boardwalk Empire>Sopranos

[Sixx]

Always Sunny, 30 Rock and Community don't have laugh tracks.

And please, do not compare those shows to 2 Broke Girls.

[Heisenberg]

2 Broke Girls is so good

[whiteyford]

Didn't take long for this thread to descend into "I don't like a show so it's overrated".

[Ultra Mantis]

All those shows with the low ratings and no awards but a small dedicated following are so overrated man.
