What about that CGI show about the family of lions, something like Family Pride. That show was terrible. I am suprised at how few people mentioned Andumbida!!

I also had your opinion of Mr. Saget until he was on Comic Relief several years ago. I rolled my eyes when he was announced, expecting a lame bunch of recycled jokes from "America's Funniest Home Videos". So imagine my surprise when he had me laughing hysterically, making fun of "Full House", his young daughter's repetitive watching of "The Wizard of Oz" and several other items. He was on a roll, but was as far removed from his persona on the sitcom. His stand-up act is incredibly lewd, profanity-laced, and the very antithesis of what most of America has come to know him as. He also just did a guest spot on HBO's Entourage as the pot-smoking, skirt-chasing new neighbor of the lead character. Seek out some of his stand-up. It'll change your opinion of Bob Saget.

GOOD TO KNOW! I just missed him in Vegas last time I went. Next time I see him listed, I will give him a second chance!

You gotta realize that people try to block out or erase bad memories. So it only makes sense that people forget all of these TV Land Bombs and Stinkeroos!

You should watch some of the rejected pilots that got the MST3K treatment. There was one incredibly bad one called Agent for H.A.R.M. that defies belief, all played dead straight.

And now Joss has abandoned the medium. Woe, woe, thrice woe.



You gotta love the DRY (as a popcorn fart) British humor!

I second (third) anything with a laugh track (with a very small hand full of exceptions). Every time I’m forced to watch a show like Yes Dear or King of Queens ETC I just sit there confused as to what’s funny. Oh the fat guy is acting like a stereotypical football obsessed American male, funny… The stereotypical weak “smart” (Knowing smart people and being one my self I can tell the guy from Yes Dear is not smart) person is scared oh haha…

OK, regarding YES DEAR, I think that Anthony Clark and Jean Kelly use to play brother and sister on some lame show called Boston Common. Now they are husband & wife........they must be from Arkansas!

The two examples you give for "Reality" TV Shows are far from "Reality". These two shows, along with all of their clones are totally "scripted" by the producers. Not a single one of these shows actually consumated in a real marriage! Some of these "ladies" would send a normal guy running. Hell, a gorram Reaver wouldn't stand a chance with these ball bustin man eaters

Also, does anyone remember the show Small Wonder with the little girl robot. Bad, very bad.

Uggh I remember that show...
I think the worst shows are any of the reality shows also. Imean they aren't real. You stick a bunch of people on an island or in a house and have them outlast each other?In reality you have to work or go to school or something. At least in mine anyways.

Someone else who hated Meet The Parents! Awful movie. How can you laugh at the poor guy?

Oh yeah, bad TV. How about Step By Step? Another of the Family Matters, Full House ilk.

I read the first few posts and thought 'omg, how can people have left out reality shows'?

Reality shows are the lowest, most demeaning (both to the participants and the audience) means of mass entertainment that may ever have graced humanity. (which is easy to say because TV hasnt been around all that long)

As for the listed shows that were scripted.... the laugh track stuff sucks, though for some reason I ended up watching a lot of Home Improvement back when it was on. Not sure why at this particular moment. It was funny because everyone knew Tim would screw up, it wasn't a surprise, you didnt need to guess. Eh, it was decent at least.
