What sitcom have you tried to get into but just couldn't continue to watch the show? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I watched this show several times before I gave up on it but it never seemed to hold my interest. I always turned the channel before it was over. This Sitcom is Welcome Back Kotter. Anyone else know of a show they could never get into?

I could never get into "Cheers" and I've tried watching "8 Simples Rules" but don't like it. "The Nanny" - I really did try, but they should pull the plug on it on Lifetime.

I could never get into Cheers either. After the first time, i knew i wouldn't watch again. I don't like 8 simple rules because the father gets no respect from his family. I don't want to see a passive father.

I never could get into seeing MASH. I've tried but, I think it's the background colors. They're mostly gray and it depresses me.

I couldn't get into Wings, Welcome Back Kotter, Cheers, Mad about You or MASH.

Unwanted Angel · 03-15-2003, 10:33 AM

Father Knows Best and The Beverly Hillbillies.

My sister loved MASH, so a few years ago, as a favor, I told her I'd watch it. I watched it everyday for a couple of weeks, but it didn't grab me. I just didn't care for it.
I Love Lucy bores me as well. I can watch an episode here and there, but I don't like it.
I gave 8 Simple Rules a shot when it debuted because I really like John Ritter. It focused too much on the teens and wasn't for me.
I've been watching My Big Fat Greek Life on Sundays, but I'm getting that feeling that I won't be watching for long.

*Less Than Perfect.. tried to get in, but it kept pushing me out
*Sabrina... it's just so not funny

Bob Newhart and MTM Shows were like this at first, but they quickly grew on me!

Exactly my thoughts. I love the theme music though, lol, and the ending music (i think they're each a little different)
