You were all set for it, planned to get into it, but it didn't do it for you, and you bailed quickly.

Tubehead 08-24-2015, 10:39 PM ones i can think of are: big brother the walking dead the office seinfeld the cobsy show mash leave it to beaver green acres the love boat 7th heaven touch by an angel every one loves raymond Parks and Recreation the gilmore girls cheers dawson's creek growing pains the steve harvy show family fude square pegs bewitched Xena: Warrior Princess Doogie Howser, M.D George Burns and Gracie Allen Show one day at a time good times Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea tired watching it too fake looking! Diagnosis Murder the Andy Griffith show Bonanza its ok show i watch it if theirs nothing els on Gilligan's Island 70s show watcher 08-24-2015, 11:14 PM boomtown and the Michael j fox show come to mind for older shows I will say that I really tried to like everybody loves Raymond mad about you and newsradio but I just did not care for them bmasters9 08-25-2015, 04:12 AM One that is very much like that for me is Northern Exposure. JSP 08-25-2015, 06:47 AM Backstrom was a show I wanted to like, but quit watching after the first episode. Earl77 08-25-2015, 12:39 PM In my case it is the Michael J. Fox Show as I love spin City and like Fox himself also very much. But honestly I only watched a few minutes of the Pilot of MJF-Show so far so perhaps I will like it one day. But presumbly not because usually a few minutes are enough if I really like a series Patty Duke 08-25-2015, 12:51 PM Michael J. Fox Show The Goldbergs and many other new sitcoms that I had hoped would be good IMHO. tlc38tlc38 08-25-2015, 06:47 PM I have several but the very first one that pops into my head is The Honeymooners. bmasters9 08-25-2015, 06:51 PM I have several but the very first one that pops into my head is The Honeymooners. Absolutely! Even $10 (which I paid for the Classic 39 release at the Wal-Mart a time back) is too much for, IMO, one of the most unfunny comedies in the history of the medium. bgva 08-25-2015, 10:43 PM Eastbound and Down. I thought it tried too hard to be edgy...you're on HBO, the F-bombs are already expected! :p Mace Dolex 08-25-2015, 11:25 PM 2 Broke Girls (it was funny at times but gets repetitive) Family Ties (could never understand its popularity) How I Met Your Mother (at times tends to veer off its original premise) visaman666 08-26-2015, 12:52 AM Family Ties only became popular after The Cosby Show debuted. Dianne3 08-27-2015, 07:43 PM I loved Family Ties in its original run, up until year 6. It was my favourite sitcom of the 80's. (before the Golden Girls) Then in year 6 I started to get bored and was not as into it the final 2 years. I thought it was because by then Micheal J. Fox was outgrowing the role of Alex. Now when I see it in reruns, I still watch it but I'm not as into it. Mr. Television 08-27-2015, 07:55 PM Family Ties only became popular after The Cosby Show debuted. And Cheers only became popular after it was moved after TCS and FT. So what's your point? I know the series last show was #1 for the week and it aired on a Sunday and Cosby was nowhere to be found so it had it's own audience. yankeesrj12 08-27-2015, 07:55 PM True Detective I was super excited to finally watch the HBO hit series. I knew it would be slow, and I was willing to give it time. In the end, however, I ABSOLUTELY HATED it. One huge bore and waste of time. opus 08-27-2015, 08:24 PM True Detective I was super excited to finally watch the HBO hit series. I knew it would be slow, and I was willing to give it time. In the end, however, I ABSOLUTELY HATED it. One huge bore and waste of time. Season one (McConaughey/Harrelson), or season two (Farrell/McAdams/Vaughn)? factsoflife 08-27-2015, 08:29 PM You were all set for it, planned to get into it, but it didn't do it for you, and you bailed quickly. Off the top of my head: Weeds The Office Mulaney Mike & Molly Grace & Frankie (it just wasn't very good) Undateable One Big Happy 70s show watcher 08-27-2015, 08:38 PM Off the top of my head: Weeds The Office Mulaney Mike & Molly Grace & Frankie (it just wasn't very good) Undateable One Big HappyI have to agree about mulaney I have always enjoyed john mulaney and lorne michaels is one of my all time fave producers but this show was awful SitcomsOffline 08-27-2015, 09:41 PM Partners. I thought it had strong potential, but I was definitely underwhelmed. factsoflife 08-28-2015, 09:08 PM Partners. I thought it had strong potential, but I was definitely underwhelmed. Which "Partners", the Fox sitcom from 1995, the CBS sitcom from 2012 or the FX comedy from 2014?

I didn't know about the other shows. :lol: Babalu 09-06-2015, 09:19 AM The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. I hated it. Michael cole 09-06-2015, 05:26 PM All in the family Mad men Breaking bad The soprano The wire The walking dead Six feet under Game of thrones Friends House ANY reality show That 70s show I'm going to get bashed for saying this, "the honeymooners" The Addams family (I like The Munsters more) Grace under fire (nearly as bad as Roseanne) That's all I can think of for now. bmasters9 09-06-2015, 07:14 PM I'm going to get bashed for saying this, "the honeymooners" I'm right in with you on The Honeymooners. At least to me, that show had very few laughs, and as such, even though I only spent $10 on it, that $10 was a waste of money. I also wanted to like Alfred Hitchcock Presents, but for reasons unknown, that one is not a favorite of mine either. yankeesrj12 09-06-2015, 08:13 PM Season one (McConaughey/Harrelson), or season two (Farrell/McAdams/Vaughn)? Season one. Michael cole 09-06-2015, 08:21 PM I'm right in with you on The Honeymooners.

I also wanted to like Alfred Hitchcock Presents, but for reasons unknown, that one is not a favorite of mine either. The Honeymooners to me, were a 1950s version of" All in the family" imanoldguy 12-23-2015, 05:39 PM Northern Exposure- I heard reviews about the show and they were good do I'd thought I'd give the show a shot. I couldn't even last 1 episode The Virginian- doesn't particularly interest me much Mash- well it looked entertaining but it was a snore fest for me The Big Bang Theory-bleh Crusinforabrusin 12-27-2015, 08:10 PM E.R .- I'm into the medical genre, yet for some reason , this show had no appeal to me. Modern Family- Some of the characters are annoying, plus the fact it uses the camera shake technique That Girl- Marlo Thomas is an excellent actress, but I just don't like the show Threes Company- Eh. This show is just boring Hill Street Blues- Depressing Feeling, Depressing Atmosphere, corrupt cops. I don't know about you, but I hate this stuff Kojak- I liked Columbo better J.A.G.- Doesn't appeal to me Will and Grace Fanatic 12-28-2015, 12:11 AM How I Met Your Mother Crusinforabrusin 12-28-2015, 01:04 AM Newradio- two words: Andy Dick Sports Night- What a stupid plot The West Wing- Went into it thinking I'd like it. 1 episode and I said screw it. I just didn't like it opus 12-28-2015, 02:21 AM Sports Night- What a stupid plot :( Sports Night was great. |
