View Full Version : Show's You Wanted To, But Could Never Get Into?
barwars 09-11-2003, 09:45 PM Is there any show that REALLY interested you, but when you saw it, it didn't grab you the way some of your favorite shows did?
For me.... WINGS did that, I found the show funny, but I just couldn't get into it.

phoebe7165 09-12-2003, 12:57 AM I know Cheers is a great show, but I just cannot get into it. Weird, because I love Frasier, but I didn't even watch Cheers when Kelsey was on.
Raymond's OK, but I find myself not watching it all the time. I've heard people say they love it, including my sister. I guess the reason I don't watch the whole episode sometimes is because I don't like the way they treat each other, especially Debra towards Ray.
treky 09-12-2003, 01:12 AM "The King of Queens"-it's a funny show, but, I don't know, I just can't get into it for some reason.
"Late Night with Conan O'Brian"-same thing. I've tried watching it, but I jut don't see why people think it's so funny. Must be just me, though, cause my sister & my mother say it's hilarious.
James 09-12-2003, 01:59 AM For me it is the following:
The Beverly Hillbillies
Boy Meets World (all it is is a ripoff of The Wonder Years if you ask me)
The Cosby Show
Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman
I Dream of Jeannie
I Love Lucy
Little House on the Prairie
And, to an extent, Happy Days. It is nowhere near as interesting as its spinoff Laverne and Shirley. The plots of L&S were more followable than their HD counterparts. I have a hard time remembering the plots of The Andy Griffith Show as well, even though I've seen roughly half of the episodes.
*PinkLady* 09-12-2003, 12:15 PM I tried like hell to get into Cheers and FOL, but I just can't do it.
Most ABC shows i've flipped on numerous times and found funny but never really got into:
8 Simple Rules...
According to Jim
Less than Perfect
George Lopez
...I've haven't really been into ABC since the 80s when I was young.

8 Simple Rules and ATJ I've seen once, and they were okay, but they weren't anything I'd tune in numerous times to see. BUt George Lopez I like. I find that one very funny.

I have also tried to watch this show, but I could never really get into it. Sometimes it was funny but it just wasn't working for me.
donald snl 09-12-2003, 10:07 PM ive tried getting into raymond and ed but they really didnt do anything for me
barwars 09-12-2003, 10:12 PM Mr. Ed is another show I REALLY wanted to get into and enjoy, but it just wasn't happening.

Chocoholic 09-13-2003, 02:06 PM Futurama- I'm a HUGE Simpsons fan and I realy wanted to like Futurama too, but it just didn't interest me at all.
Frasier- I love Wings and Cheers, but never did like Frasier too much.
dandelion wine 09-13-2003, 11:41 PM Everybody Loves Raymond - I've seen Ray Romano's stand-up so I thought for sure I'd be able to enjoy his show.. never happened.
Becker - I loved Ted Danson on Cheers, and just as an actor in general, but his show has never been able to hold my attention.
¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ 09-15-2003, 03:33 PM Flying Nun. I tried so hard to get into it because Im a huge Gidget fan, but that show is just lame.
Cactus Jack 09-15-2003, 10:52 PM The Waltons, I freaking HATE that show ( no offense to fans, but Im not the biggest fan of that show youll meet )

Will and Grace Fanatic 09-15-2003, 11:17 PM Ed- I watched the series premeire back in the day because critics were really loving this show but never found it to be real interesting.
Road Rules-the creators also did the Real World so I thought it would be good. Never got that could for me.
