Default Sitcoms you think are boring

We all got favorite sitcoms and we all got are least favorites. But which sitcoms do you are just plain boring? Here's mine:



Here's Lucy: Its kinda strange because I liked Lucilles previous two shows


The Big Bang Theory: I'll watch anything other then this snoozefest

The Donna Reed Show: The typical 1960s sitcom. There were so many in the 60s, I couldn't bear to watch one more

Barney Miller: Eh. Bored me to tears

The Facts Of Life: It bored me because I knew it was a lousy ripoff of Different Strokes. Plus most of the cast were girls so .....yeah

I love the Big Bang Theory and the Facts of Life, but I certainly agree about Barney Miller. I like the theme song but the show itself is extremely boring. I don't see how it lasted so long.

The one sitcoms I always found boring was The Office. Even though a lot of people liked it, I didn't because I thought it was boring.

The Office. I tried numerous times to get into it but it just wasn't for me.

Three's Company. These characters had to be the dumbest people on earth to get into such idiotic situations.

Everybody Loves Raymond. I just couldn't stand the characters, what a dreadful bunch.

The Office for me too. I could never get through an entire episode of that show because it was just so dull.

I don't watch boring sitcoms, it's not very logical to do so. I think Mr. Spock would agree with me on that one.

I enjoyed the first few seasons of The Office, and then I realized that nobody at Dunder Mifflin is really that likeable. Then everyone started boinking each other it seems, which is a huge office no-no, especially one that size!

I'm trying to get into M*A*S*H and Andy Griffith on MeTV, and both are just too dry and slow for me.

I'm with you on M.A.S.H. I tried multiple times getting into it, but I got bored with it mid episode and then I'd change the channel. It does have a good theme song though

I haven't seen a sitcom since Everybody Loves Raymond that I didn't find boring, honestly. Predictable comic beats, paper thin, unlikable characters and cookie cutter plots. I just shake my head that so much of this stuff is popular.
