What do you reckon the worst TV programme currently being made is?

My nomination is Two Broke Girls.

I first saw Two Broke Girls on an airplane, I didn't have enough time before landing to start watching another movie, so I thought I'd watch a couple of episodes of a sitcom. I couldn't quite believe how bad it was, and when I got home I watched another episode just to make sure I hadn't hallucinated its awfulness in some kind of jet lagged haze. I hadn't.

If you haven't seen it it's like one of those dreadful Nickelodeon or Disney kids sitcoms where everything is overly bright and the programme makers have mistaken having the actors loudly shouting catch phrases for character development. Except as its made for adults most of the 'jokes' are crude sexual humour, which I don't mind when it's funny, but this isn't funny, it's the adult equivalent of a five year old shouting 'poo bum fart willy' at you constantly. Plus all the supporting characters are horrible racial stereotypes.

There must be a fan base for it because it's on about season four, but dear god it's bad.

I get you Grin it sounds dreadful Grin I cannot understand why all the fuss is made about Games of Thro.

Vile almost paedeophilic, exploitative sex and violence. Written by a DOM for other DOM in my opinion. !!

Definitely Mrs Browns Boys. Saw thirty seconds of it and now I want to sue the BBC for that thirty seconds of my life I'll never get back.

YY to Mrs brown's boys but my vote would be for that naked dating programme. It actually makes me feel fearful and sad about the society my children will grow up in!!!

Was about to say Mrs Browns boys! Although I admit I've only seen about 30 seconds of it so I'm not really entitled to an opinion!
Also made in Chelsea and its spin offs - if they are going to make 'scripted' reality then they need to hire some actual actors as the MiC people can only do vacant stares and startled rabbit looks when they are supposed to be discussing their relationships.

Catchphrase hosted by Stephen Mulhern.

I'd rather spend a day in a Stasi interrogation room than watch that dated, tedious shite.

Stage School is in a league of badness all on its own.

Considering its about acting students it is more wooden than the New Forest.

Agree with Mrs Brown's Boys and all the Geordie Shore, MIC, TOWIE type programmes. Also the awful lottery programme on Saturdays, why can't they just draw the numbers without making into a cheesy game show?

What's that one where the teenagers go on holiday and their parents spy on them? That's really horrible. Part of me thinks the kids must know what's going on but then who'd agree to go on a holiday like that?
