Your unpopular entertainment opinions

[bb20038]

Can be TV film music video games popular culture etc

I will start
Breaking bad wasn't all that

Dr Who should never have been revived and jumped the shark during Matt Smith’s tenure.

Citizen Kane was not the best film ever made. Orson Welles just decided that he was a genius and everyone believed him.

This is truth! That film was so boring.

Marvel Universe and DC movies are all boringly shit, with very rare exceptions.

I agree with most of what's been shared!

Anything about antiques or repairing old tat.
The Repair Shop is the least bad of them but the one where they pounce on people at the tip and get some artisan maker to turn shite into expensive shite is excruciating. Arthur Smith, hang your head in shame.
And the antiques ones where they trundle around the country in a 'quirky' little car, having much hilarious banter - give me strength.

I quite like Phil Collins' music

I still like "Take my Breath away" from Top Gun. I will never admit this or reveal this anywhere else.

Telethons are bloody awful. I'm not against the charities, but it seems like nothing more than an opportunity for famous people to get airtime, in a load of fourth rate sketches.

Eurovision should have been led out to the back paddock and shot for its own good 30 years ago.

New Tricks should have ended when James Bolam left.

Time Team without Mick and Tony and Phil wasn’t worth reviving, much as I love Stewart.

House of the Dragon is not that great
Today's pop music is forgettable (even smartshow 3d music library has better/catchier tracks)
I dont like Friends or How I met your mother

Gogglebox. I mean just why? people watching people on the tv watching tv. Why would anyone actually think that was anything other than shite.

Amy Winehouse was shit.

Love island/I’m a celeb/strictly/masked singer/pretty much anything reality is shite.

The last pop music worth listening to was written in the early 80s.

This was a dagger in the heart 😳🥺😂

The Harry Potter books aren't very good. The films are worse.

Rivers of London is very easy to put down. No idea why it's considered a good suggestion to inspire someone into reading as I think it would do the opposite.

I'd also agree with a poster upthread about Stephen King - with the exception of a handful of his books. Though saying that, I'd put Celine Ahern in the terrible writer category and I don't think King should be in the same group. So he can go in the "generally over rated" category. Ahern to me is like Robbie Williams - bafflingly successful when so void of talent.

It's been said upthread, but: Beyoncé is so, so overrated. Drunk in Love is unlistenable dirge. Feels like the emperor's new clothes.

Richard Harris sleepwalked through the role as Dumbledore and managed to screw up what was a very funny line in the book.

She's going to fuck up Indiana Jones!

Still go to Galway it's amazing.

Only the first series of Peaky Blinders was decent

Monty Python wasn’t funny

Amanda Holden seems like a nice person who’d be a fun friend

Coldplay, Adele and Ed Sheeran make music for people who don’t really care about music

And he just picked Galway at random because it suited the rhythm — he tried out a whole bunch of other Irish placenames first, including Clonakilty, from what I remember him saying.

It is a godawful song. But a nice city.

Fawlty Towers isn't funny, just irritating. Bake Off is now boring and repetitive and should end.

The BBC still make some great TV.

Here's mine- Michael Gambon is a much better Dumbledore. For me, he embodies the character.

The "Comedian plus a family member" format is tired as fuck, and just an excuse for a jolly.

ITV is about 4% quality drama and 96% brain rotting dross.

Bring back sketch comedy.

Ghosts is incredibly overrated on MN.

Peep Show just kept circling back after series 5.
