Maybe this has been brought up before, but all that's on in my room is the show Friends, and I have to imagine that, in hell, it is on repeat and we all must sit through an acting class led by "Ross" (David Schwimmer).

So fanatics, what show can you not stand at all? Everybody has their own opinion and there are therefore no right or wrong answers. But to me it doesn't get much worse than Friends and The Big Bang Theory.

New Dallas, Idol crap, singing crap, dancing crap, and I'm censoring myself tonight. You are welcome.

Ah how could I forget all of these stale "competition" shows. I never enjoyed Idol, so how could I ever enjoy 10 different versions of it

I'll throw in anything on USA as well. Pretty much the same idea. Recycled law and cop shows..

Man.. my insomnia tonight is ridiculous, but not as ridiculous as some of the shows you find at 3 or 4 in the morning

Big Bang Theory is the absolute worst.

Also, any ethnic cooking show on Food Network where the host speaks with a non-regional diction until she comes across words from another language, and then totally overemphasizes them. No, Giadda. Its spuh-getty, not spee-gay-tee.

All reality shows

I like a few of them (Amazing Race, Survivor, etc.) But by and large I agree.

The formula is as follows:
  • Take several high maintenance or unstable people, or people with an unrealistic view of their own "fame"
  • Isolate them
  • Toss in situations that they are ill equipped to handle
  • Have your interns fan the flames off camera or reward them for outrageous behavior
  • Sit back and enjoy!

I'm so glad to find others who hate the Big Bang Theory.... I figured I would come write it in this thread, and everyone would say "what's wrong with you?!".

Anywho, I also hate (as others have said) dancing, singing, talent shows.
Reality TV, esp Big Brother.

I really don't watch much tv - especially since the few shows I do watch are on break over the summer.

As a dude I'd have to say: Sex In the city, when it was on a lot a few years ago.

Can't believe the Big Bang hate. Great show. Hate Jersey Shore, Kardashians, and other similar shows with people who have no business being famous or on tv.

All this, and anything scripted except old Law & Order reruns and animated series (Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, etc.).

So, I watch a lot of sports.
