Mrs Browns Boys...

Pinky333777 · 17/12/2017 13:36

Any "reality" tv show. Can't stand them!

CremeFresh · 17/12/2017 13:38

Mrs Browns Boys is awful - I get some programmes that others like and I don't but I cannot understand why anyone would this one funny.

Pseudousername · 17/12/2017 13:39

Yes. Mrs Brown's Boys truly dreadful.

shaggedthruahedgebackwards · 17/12/2017 13:39

It would be easier to list TV shows that are my cup of tea. There is so much on telly I wouldn't dream of watching.

All soaps
All scripted reality nonsense (TOWIE etc)
All Jeremy Kyle type shows
X-Factor
Britian's got talent

The list goes on!

Greenteandchives · 17/12/2017 13:40

Strictly Come Dancing.
Any reality show starring celebs from other reality shows.

Blerg · 17/12/2017 13:45

Came on to say Mrs Brown’s Boys too.

Anything Saturday Night feeling - Takeaway or talent shows. Bit cringe for me.

Some reality TV.

I’m ashamed to say I don’t really like wildlife documentaries either. I can see their worth but I wouldn’t choose them.

Anything to do with Jeremy Kyle.

BikeRunSki · 17/12/2017 13:46

Most of it

Mulch · 17/12/2017 13:47

X factor, I'm a celebrity

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 17/12/2017 13:48

Mrs Brown's Boys
Last of the Summer Wine
Only Fools And Horses
Holby/Casualty etc
Eastenders
I'm a Celebrity

Redglitter · 17/12/2017 13:49

Anything with that dick Bradley Walsh in it

IHaveBrilloHair · 17/12/2017 13:50

I don't watch much, but what I do watch is total trash!
I love teenmom and 90 day fiance, Eastenders, Corrie and Strictly.
Other than that just films and documentaries on Netflix.

Eolian · 17/12/2017 14:02

Almost all tv shows tbh. All soaps, twee historical dramas, almost all comedy shows (especially anything involving Michael McIntyre), all recent sitcoms (especially Mrs Brown's Boys), all gameshows, all reality tv shows, all medical shows, all talent shows, all 'documentaries' being gleefully pretend-shocked by fat people, poor people etc. It's all utterly ghastly. Bah humbug Grin.

I like (some) nature documentaries, (some) sci fi and fantasy series and that's about it.

mercurymaze · 17/12/2017 14:03

i think i am the only woman in the world to not particulaly like strictly come dancing

colonelgoldfish · 17/12/2017 14:19

Mrs Brown’s Boys and Citizen Khan. They both have a similar feel of trying too hard to be really funny but they’re actually not (in my opinion anyway).

colonelgoldfish · 17/12/2017 14:22

Also all the ‘big’ entertainment type shows.
Big brother, I’m a celeb, strictly, BGT, X factor, the voice etc.

TheQueenOfWands · 17/12/2017 14:23

Anything like The One Show or This Morning where they 'interview' people.

They feel forced. And mostly they aren't interviewing, they're mocking people. Example: that woman who thought she was too stunning to get a date and Phil sniggered in the corner (saw it on FB).

Mean.

LesDennishair · 17/12/2017 14:32

Strictly/X Factor/Britain Talent/ Jungle Celebrity - all of that sort of thing.
Mrs Brown's Boys
Coronation Street
Hospital dramas - any
ITV programmes - there might be the occasional exception but I can't think of any at the moment

somewhereovertherain · 17/12/2017 14:35

Anything ant and dec
Anything reality or celebrity except Strickly
Soaps
X factor
Most American crap 💩
To be honest most of it’s shite

Nope. Another one here. A whole load of orange-faced, plastic-looking 'celebrities' galumphing about in ludicrously tacky outfits with even more plastic-looking dancers and being horribly falsely gushing about each other's wonderful performances. Urgh.

LesDennishair · 17/12/2017 14:46

Agree Eolian, far from it. I know few people who do watch it. There was a thread where lots of people said the same.
