Anything that goes over three series becomes a joke of itself. Nothing wrong with Twin Peaks , Lost, Friends GoT that maybe just having 20 episodes would have solved.
Reality tv isn't meant to be good. You are just meant to recognise the human condition.
I hate twatty " we're cool blokes, taking the piss" stuff. The Last whatever, Keith Lemon, Pointless" .

Love Mrs Browns Boys but hated Chubby Brown when he was in his heyday, nasty grubby little oik and I wouldnt watch him now either.

Falconhoof1 · 09/11/2017 07:35

Mrs Brown's Boys is awful. My PIL love it and recommended it to me. Couldn't watch past the first 5 mins!

DippyDaddy88 · 09/11/2017 13:04

Sorry but ive never seen a single titty nor fanny in lord of the rings, perhaps your just a feminist that doesnt like to use her imagination for anything but insulting some mens taste in films?? Though im sure your a big fan of Made In Chelsea and TOWIE even though they are as fake as Game Of Thrones... now to get ready for the hate comments because i mentioned the F word (Feminist) sorry.

Yokohamajojo · 09/11/2017 13:17

Mrs Brown's Boys definitely
Miranda same stuff
Buffy the Vampire slayer when that was the thing, never got it
Any panel shows, so boring
Narcs, gave up after the first couple of episodes
Apprentice - as mentioned the first couple were ok now it's just the same and the contestants just seep more and more stupid, although it feels like they are being set up to fail

I can't bear celebrity juice
Lost on me

Teddy1970 · 09/11/2017 21:28

My MIL wets herself laughing at Mrs Browns Boys, DH and I are sat there looking totally perplexed as to why she's killing herself laughing...we just don't get it, it has to be the most unfunny TV show of all time

skustew · 09/11/2017 21:29

Sopranos

TheEagle · 09/11/2017 21:34

Seinfeld

I hate Mrs. Brown's Boys (as do all my family and we are Irish). It's chronically unfunny.

Steaksauce · 10/11/2017 07:22

Greys Anatomy- boring
ER - only watched half an episode, also boring.
Sex and the City - dreadful. Characters, clothes, everything was just dire.

SmiledWithTheRisingSun · 10/11/2017 07:25

Agree with BonnyF 💯:

Game of thrones.

Cynically misogynistic sub-Tolkien tripe.

rogl · 10/11/2017 08:08

Towie, made in Chelsea, love island or any of those shows were they talk vile, have no self respect and set bad examples to young people

Celebrity juice- can’t stand Keith lemon

MrsJayy · 10/11/2017 08:38

You sound super fun and intelligent mate. Big thumbs up.

RhiannonOHara · 10/11/2017 15:02

The Wire thought it was VERY VERY important and significant but I thought it was just boring. Dominic West's American accent was wobbly as fuck, too.

I love Mad Men, the West Wing (although it could be very preachy and folksy) and Breaking Bad though.

TaylorTinker · 10/11/2017 15:07

Do you know I agree about 1995 P and P. It was a good adaptation but had its faults. It gets lauded as the definitive version but I don't think I even like Lizzie in it very much. And I really didn't like Alison Steadman as the mum.

Blerg · 10/11/2017 15:15

Another vote for Fawlty Towers. Not that I hate it, but I think it is over-rated.
