I thought there was already a post about this?
Oh well . . . midas well post it one more time . . .
* "The Beverly Hillbillies" (I can't stand that show one bit, it is so boring and I can hardly sit through one episode)
* "Taxi" (Latka is SO annoying along with the rest of the characters)
* "My (least) Favorite Martian" (same as 'Hillbillies')
* Any Westerns
* M(u)d ooops . . . I mean "Maude" (This show has way to many problems with it: Maude, her hair, her face, her voice, her shocking attitude, ect)
* "All In The Family" (It's okay, but Archie's yelling and his cursing, along with his filthy mouth gets so old)
* "M*A*S*H" (makes me fall asleep . . . VERY boring)
* "McHale's Navy"
* "The Phil Silvers Show"/Sgt. Bilko
* "ROC"

"Boston Public"
"Cheers"
"The Facts of Life"
"Friends"
"Married ... with Children"
"Night Court"

I have nothing against Buffy. In fact, I haven't seen one single episode of the show. It is to bad "The Lucy Show" isn't your #1 favorite nor Lucille Ball being one of your favorites. But that's okay. At least, you like "The Lucy Show" and Lucille Ball.

Why do you keep saying how big of a fan you are of Buffy? Yes, I like the show! I wouldn't buy it on DVD, or talk about it non-stop to people! I posted it being boring a year ago. Drop it. I have obviously grown to love the darn thing if I say I like it.
Notorious
10-13-2002, 01:21 AM
No, you have some little idea in your head that I don't like Buffy. 'Oh my god, I guess you aren't a fan'. Because of something I said a year ago. I don't even know why decided to cause something and say it. -- and don't put words in my hands!

This is just my opinion of course since all of these shows have been so popular over the years, but I have always found every Star Trek show incredibly hard to get through. The original series on. Well I shouldn't say on--since I never liked or was bored by the ones I sampled I never did try the last edition of the franchise.
Notorious has a point. For example, say 10 months ago, a person weighs 300 pounds. Now they way a great-looking 150 pounds. Is it appropriate to call them fat now?

Why would Bewitched be "boring"? Too many people think that "every show has the exact same plot"- without even checking the facts. See

if that's the case. Because you're missing out on a FANTASTIC show!!! The early episodes rule! :cool:

I disagree with one particular show you mentioned above. It should be obvious. I Love Lucy wasn't boring, in fact, Lucy did some pretty amazing things in the show that actually made the show funny. Some perfect examples would be the vitameatavegamin scene or the time she stuff those chocolates in her mouth or the time where those chicken eggs were smash in her SHIRT. And you say ILL is boring? I say the opposite.

I have nothing against Notorious, but he made a very rude statement. Calling someone an idiot over some misunderstanding is very unadult-like. But Notorious did make a piont though. But the way he handled Silverdaze's statements/opinions was uncalled for.

I know, I know . . . I'm going to get scolded over what I said. AND I assume that the scolding will be by either Original Prankster, JT, Tootieismyfav (since it has happened numerous times before by all three), or Notorious (if he takes my statement the wrong way). But hey, at least I call it when I see something wrong.

If you think Friends, Cheers, Mad About You and Frasier are boring, your on something, they are some of the best shows ever.
Survivor is played out, the beginning season were good, but now it sucks.

I'm with Arfies BW rocks!! Not that these lists mean anything becuz it is all subjective, but Bewitched was in the TV GUIDE list of the fifty Greatest Shows of All Time. I do think it is a bit obnoxious when some people post responses being critical of something someone else really likes--just to goad them.

Sorry, Ozzy, it was just a joke, but the guy insulted people because they don't like Friends, Frasier, etc. When are you gonna put him in the right? This is rather strange considering the conversation we had in AIM last night...

I second that. It's just TELEVISION! The world is not going to end if someone doesn't like your favorite TV show.
Lots of people hate The Love Boat, but it will always be my favorite show. People are entitled to say it's trash, if they want to, but I don't agree.
My least favorites are Cheers, Friends and Survivor.

I disagree in regards to The Love Boat. It's a boring piece of fluff (among pieces of something else), nutritionally equivalent to cotton candy. In fact, if this show was food, the label would read, "Not a significant source of the RDA of entertainment."
