Title: Best and Worst - TV Shows
Post by: JackO on October 23, 2009, 02:39:15 PM
Ok, so this topic is simple, post a tv show you love and a tv show you hate and say why. Obviously, with me being British, you may not have heard of my shows and I may not have heard of yours, but we'll see.

Best: Futurama - I love the writing, and I can watch an episode even if I've seen it 4 times before, so its obviously doing something right.

Worst: Deal Or No Deal: Whoever though doing the same thing everyday for a show, would be entertaining, was wrong. There's only so much repetition I can endure, I mean this show has been going on for like 2 years now.  *rant

Anyway, I want to know which shows you guys love or hate, and maybe try not to post animes, unless they're all you watch.

Best, for me, has to be NCIS. I've been watching it since right after Ziva first showed up. I can't believe how popular it's gotten the past couple of years.

Worst is Grey's Anatomy. Way too soap-y for my tastes.

Best: House  - before I moved, I watched House religiously and I'll never forget how season (4, was it?) ended wherein Wilson's girlfriend was the subject and House had tried to save her, but she still ended up dead.


Worst:  Survivor or any "Reality TV" show.  Seriously, WTF. If I wanted reality, I'd go outside and play or something. I watch TV to get *away* from reality. :wacko:


Also:

Wheel of Fortune (as well as many other game shoes) have followed this format successfully for many years, so clearly, it wasn't the Deal or No Deal folks who came up with this, nor does it appear to have been a bad idea. =P

Futurama is amazing. So is South Park. I hate any reality TV show. They just piss me off.

I guess I could have phrased that better, at least in Wheel of Fortune they're answering different questions, or doing something more interesting than opening boxes. Its like a boring Christmas with Deal Or No Deal.

I think you mean Jeopardy  :P.  In Wheel of Fortune, all they do for 90% of the game is spin a big wheel and hope it lands on money instead of Bankrupt or Lose a Turn.

Best: Heroes.  Amazing special effects, an extremely compelling and overarching plot, and it's downright cool to boot.

Worst: Superjail.  Honestly, that show is retarded in all of its possible facets. (Either that or anything that's not a cartoon on Cartoon Network.  What happened to the good old days of watching cartoons on Saturday morning?)

Hmm...my best would definetly be the Vegas CSI. Overal a well-put together show. I've only seen a couple of the episodes with Fishburne, though...

As for my worst...wow, there are tons. I really hate anything to do with celebrities, so I'll go with TMZ

Another House fan up in here! Fuck yeah. My other favorites are The Soup, Law and Order: SVU and the classic Rocko's Modern Life.

Worst: Probably America's Next Top Model. Here's a protip, Tyra: NOT EVERYTHING HAS TO RETURN TO STUFF ABOUT YOU.

I'm a big House fan. I'm so big a fan that I'm downloading Season Four as we speak.  xD

And Rocko's Modern Life fucking ROCKS! Ed Bighead was one of my favorite characters. Working at Comglom-O.   :lol:

God, my dad loved that show too. Half the fun is watching it later and getting all the adult jokes! My dad also does this hilarious impression of Bev Bighead.

Best: 24, NCIS, The Unit, House, Scrubs (Amazing casts all the way around)

Worst: Lost. The show started out so well, but now the plot's a running joke with all the strange plot twists, and how they answer questions with more questions.

Best: JACKASS!! I love watching idiots gettung hurt, in the most creative ways  :lol:

Worst: Jeez that's hard... I have to go with Family guy. Family guy, according to South Park, is just one interchangeable joke after another that have nothing to do with the main story. I can't believe they are the 2 millionth person who spoke te truth about it

Yeah, i got sick of Family Guy after it's first season, but not because the gags have nothing to do with the plot. I don't like how they run their jokes into the ground all the time. Some of the gags would be funny if they would just move on after a few seconds, but it usually drags on long enough to get boring.

The ones I dislike on Family Guy are the Chicken VS Peter fights, the ones where Peter falls and clutches his knee, and the ones where Stewie's voice gets progressively higher and higher as he talks.

Best: I would say The Simpsons (up to season 13), Rocko's Modern Life, and Scrubs.

Worst: Hannah Montana, JONAS (don't get me started), and Sit Down, Shut Up.


By the way, IMO: Dr. Cox > Dr. House
Title: Re: Best and Worst - TV Shows
Post by: DubiousCharms on December 12, 2009, 11:47:01 PM
Well I'll admit to being a huge Dr. Cox fan. You could say I even... love the Cox.

Fan of House here, mainly because I can relate to sarcastic and negative outlooks on life >.>;
I'm only on season 3 though, got into it late, and haven't had time to catch up.

I dislike anything on the disney channel pretty much. They all have the same plots, or lack thereof...

I love Futurama! Always funny. They should never have canceled it. I have all of the seasons on DVD.

I hate American Idol. I think it's stupid. It's rigged 50% of the time anyways.
