Posted August 10, 2024Aug 10 Been a few weeks now without a fresh discussion thread in here and so for this I'm looking at tv shows that are popular that you feel are not worth the hype or praise. Do bear in mind this is anything that was released between 2000 and 2015 only.
August 10, 2024Aug 10 Author 8 Out Of 10 Cats for me, never understood the fuss over that one and doesn't help with Jimmy Carr being on it too.
August 11, 2024Aug 11 Death in Paradise - always received really high viewing figures but it always seemed a bit crap whenever I tuned in. :unsure: The Only Way Is Essex, Made in Chelsea and shows of that ilk.
August 11, 2024Aug 11 Oh I LOVE Death in Paradise. Although that’s probably because I’ve been to the area of the world where it’s filmed!
August 11, 2024Aug 11 Miranda. Couldn't abide that programme. This is like blasphemy of the highest order. Sherlock is the most overrated show, the episodes were too long, the scripts were too pretentious and Benedict Cumberbatch is generally overrated. :rolleyes: Edited August 11, 2024Aug 11 by T Boy
August 11, 2024Aug 11 So I have a few that were highly praised - where I thought they were good / meh Breaking Bad - had some amazing moments but I would never put this anywhere near top of any list The Wire Madmen
August 11, 2024Aug 11 Author Glee as well for me. Not cared about that and it was of course super popular.
August 11, 2024Aug 11 I'd say I enjoyed Miranda for what it was. I wouldn't class it as upper tier comedy, but it's an easy enough and harmless watch :)
August 12, 2024Aug 12 Miranda is seriously annoying and not even remotely funny. Wasn't helped when I once saw her shoehorned into a film where it really didn't work and also annoyed me there too.

August 12, 2024Aug 12 The Miranda hate is too much. :mellow: I haven’t seen the show myself, but I liked her in Not Going Out.
August 17, 2024Aug 17 Friends Will & Grace The Big Bang Theory Family Guy The Royle Family Doctor Who
August 18, 2024Aug 18 Oh yeah The Big Bang Theory is a good example! Absolutely, I find it extremely overrated.
August 18, 2024Aug 18 Given how much everyone seems to slag of Big Bang Theory, I’d say that it’s far from overrated. Maybe the thread should be renamed ‘shows I don’t like’. :blush:
August 19, 2024Aug 19 I really like Friends to be fair, it’s a good sitcom. But it’s painfully overrated.
