Worst TV Shows Ever

[Formaldehyde]

I think First Place goes to My Mother The Car:

Or how about It's About Time, by the creators of Gilligan's Island if you don't recognize exactly the same set...

Or BJ and the Bear, where Bear isn't a bear at all...

Or perhaps the worst spinoff of all time, The Ropers:

A shape-shifting crime fighter, Manimal?

Homeboys in Outer Space?

Small Wonder was really bad. I remember watching that as a kid in the 80s.

I remember this. Spike Lee made a satirical film (Bamboozled) about a network creating a televised minstrel show. Could be where he got his inspiration from.

Truly horrific . It was essentially a battle between the kid and the robot to see who was most likely to induce the viewer to suicide

OMG. I had completely forgotten about that travesty of a show.

Behind that Vicki was another Vicki afflicted with marginal acting ability, and obsessed with sex and schnapps.

LOL Took me awhile to figure this out. Now I do remember this. I guess being 34 is enough to not remember all the crappy shows back in the days.

[Cutlass]

Most of them, if you want the truth

 

[classical_hero]

Not one of these shows I have ever heard of before.

 

[Omega124]

Jeresy Shore. That is all.

 

[Formaldehyde]

How about Bill Dana stereotyping Hispanics every week for years on his show and elsewhere?

I always hated Caroline in the City too. People said it was a gay show but I don't really know why gays would be interested in it.

 

[shadowplay]

Wings immediately comes to mind. Tony Shalhoub was the one redeeming factor, though...

Full House was another spectacular turd in the bowl.

Just about any medical drama. Grey's Anatomy immediately comes to mind.

Oh, and basically the entire CBC line-up, with few exceptions, are truly awful, awful shows.

I didn't ever have a negative reaction to that show, but I relate to just about any sitcom about Manhattan. It wasn't one of my favorites like Seinfeld or Barney Miller, but it wasn't bad.

 

[Red Door]

Jeresy Shore. That is all.

Jersey Shore is actually entertaining. Those people should not be famous, but they do make entertaining television.

I'll add a couple of bad mainstream ones:
The League
Secret Girlfriend
The Middle
Two and a Half Men
The Big Bang Theory
American Dad
Outsourced

 

[GenMarshall]

For me:
Deadliest Catch
Swamp loggers
Swamp People
Aliens on the History Channel
Ice Road Truckers
Axe Men

I understand how some people might find it entertaining, but I just find it stupid.

The Big Bang Theory

You sir have no class, though, if you think BBT is bad.

Other shows that I hate:

Shows like American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance, etc outside of auditions. The auditions are a goldmine of humor, but the actual show is boring and is more of a popularity contest than actual talent (Especially Idol).

The Young and the Restless- My mom watches this whenever she can and oh my god how can anyone find this entertaining.

Entertainment Tonight- Celberty Gossip. Whoop-de-doo

Lost- Epiletic Trees, Polar Bears, and EVERYONE DIES! Actually "hate" is too strong. It's more of "gets too confusing too fast" and "Miss one episode and you're lost!" at the same time, and thus could never see the hype behind it. (Pun intentened back there)

Any biased newssource, left or right- Politcal commentary shows are one thing, but when I watch a news show, I want the facts, the whole facts, and nothing but the facts.

I understand how some people might find it entertaining, but I just find it stupid.

I agree, good sir. I don't understand the appeal about a show that basically amounts to Guidoes getting drunk, fighting, and fornicating. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for a lot of my facebook friends.

I had MexAmerican Marine buddies who wanted to kill this guy.

The scene from The Right Stuff, where the Hispanic orderly in the hospital discusses what he thinks of Alan Shepard mimicking Dana's astronaut routine is awesome. Part of Dana's original routine appears at the very beginning of this clip and the scene itself starts at 19:20.

I can't find the astronaut routine clip on Youtube, but here it is acted out by puppets with the original audio:

There were some truly awful cartoon spin-offs of live action movies and television shows. I'm sure this isn't the absolute worst of them, but it's still a nice example of how terrible they were:
