Unpopular TV Opinions

I hate telly. There's only one decent show in the world: Most Extreme Elimination Challenge!

From after school specials to The Quarterback Princess to Mad About You to the silver screen; I like Helen Hunt, actor.

I also liked Paige Davis from TLC's Trading Spaces - her bubbly personality is great and didn't bother me one whit.

Didn't bother me either. She was perfectly fine.

Ah! A place to vent and rant! Here goes!

It may be unfair to judge from having seen about ten minutes of it, but the British comedy series Little Britain is not the funniest thing on television. In fact, what I saw of it wasn't even that good.

Also, Buffy the Vampire Slayer? Not the greatest show ever. Frequently, not even that great. At it's best - fun and enjoyable vampire slayage, with some quite poignant character moments. At it's worst (which was frequent) - melodramatic, over-the-top, angst-ridden rubbish. And the Buffy / Angel relationship? Yes, dears, we know the girl's a slayer and the boy's a vampire and that they can never be together. Thanks for pounding it in over three (perhaps longer) years with the subtlety of an explosion in a Jerry Bruckheimer movie. God, they even used violins...

Law and Order: Criminal Intent is better than the original Law and Order (these days, anyway - nothing against the original flavour, but fifteen years of 'crime committed - cops investigate - guy arrested - D.A's prosecute - conviction / acquittal depending on the point being driven home' plot structures get a bit tiring after a while. Back in the day, however, nothing beats original flavour).

Futurama is superior to The Simpsons in almost every way.

Heh, I agree with your whole post DoctorNemesis (apart from the Law and Order bit because I've never seen it)!

More unpopular opinions:
I think South Park is one of the best TV shows ever, I never got into SATC or The Office and all incarnations of CSI are boring. Also, I like Survivor and was really upset the British version was axed.

Never understood the popularity of Friends. I was a two-faced gnat: offering my symphathy to a couple of friends who actually cried when they saw the last ep while I secretly rejoiced. Rejoiced, I tell you.

I used to be a reality TV addict from Big Brother, Joe Millionaire,Survivor to Trading Spaces. I now detest reality TV. Enough already. Your time is up. Bring us back some good sitcoms, some gritty dirty adult soaps, a new newshow, ANYTHING BUT REALITY DAMMIT.

I too hated Seinfeld. I find it to be very depressing.

And I don't like Scrubs either.

Benny Hill. Not that funny.

This is an unpopular opinion?!

The only reason I ever watched it was for the boobies.

I'd go so far as to say that British comedy is overrated.
