Do you think these are Depressing TV Programs? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I think these types of shows are very depressing on TV

Dateline-NBC
CSI-CBS
Law and Order-NBC
Trauma in the ER-TLC

Nothing is entertaining about these shows. I like to be entertained.

Um... CSI isnt and Law And Order isnt.

They show dead bodies on CSI and Law Order right? Of course not real dead bodies but that type of program doesn't interest me.

They're two of my faves and I always enjoy them. Neither has ever depressed me. Sometimes I wish "CSI" wouldn't be so graphic with their simulations, e.g. showing the bullet's path through the body, but that just grosses me out; it doesn't depress me.

I don't watch any of those shows because I agree, they are depressing. I'm not really into those kinds of shows...jmo though.

The idea doesn't appeal to me that much, so unless I stumble across it and find it interesting, I don't watch. But I only find it boring, not depressing. I don't actually get depressed much anyway, even when I have something to be depressed about.

I Dont care for those shows either. I Prefer Sitcoms.

No it's depressing because of what i deals with.

I've never watched Trauma in the ER but I love both CSI and all of the Law and Orders. If Dateline has an interesting story I will watch it.

I dont find much about TV depressing. IT's a great escape.

I like Trauma in the ER.. I dont really watch the others. reality shows are cool.

PZelda · 06-15-2003, 12:46 PM

I don't watch "dark" shows because they depress me...That goes for the TV movies on Lifetime.

they are depressing... -- martina gurl, CSI is about people investigating crimes dealing with murdered people and so does law and order. what depresses you??

AnaheimPMWitch · 06-15-2003, 01:27 PM

I LOVE CSI yes its a bit graphic and can gross me out sometimes but its a good show (and it doesnt help that in the fall I come in during the second half... because I watch Will and Grace at 9:00..... which is when they show the recreation gross stuff)
and I saw Law and Order SVU once well because Erik was in it
