What do you consider a really bad tv show.....that you enjoyed watching? Its OK to watch garbage, just as long as you know its garbage
Here is my pick:
If you are drunk, its a much better show(thats how I watched it). I love Sci-fi tv a lot.

Sorry, I almost forgot
CHARMED
Just a Buffy wannabe, Charmed was pretty abysmal most of the time.

Really bad? Really, REALLY bad, that I enjoy anyway?
American Idol. Or, as I call it, American Idle.
I just can't watch it anymore. It's a timesoak, and I don't have the time. Plus it's pure garbage, in its unadulterated and concentrated form.
And The Starlost looks kinda cool, from the pic you posted. Looks like elements of Silent Running there, and Keir Dullea from 2001? How can that be a bad thing?

I barely recall watching part of an episode of The Starlost, so I can't comment on whether I would have continued watching and enjoying it. Maybe I'll get it from Netflix one of these days.
My pick would probably be Quark. http://quark.name/

American Idol is to your brain what cavities are to teeth
About the Starlost, it is cool. It's 70's Canadian sci-fi. The Ark(the ship) is built to save earths inhabitants of a cataclysmic event. Comprised of connecting domes. Each dome(roughly 70 miles in diameter) has its own culture and civilization of inhabitants.
After a group of 3 young people break away from their dome in defiance, they wander through the entire massive Ark encountering a different "dome" each episode. Helping the inhabitants with problems, or learning something about the human condition.
In theory, a great idea for a sci-fi show. It is the execution that is lacking. The ultra low budget, and acting(the female Gay Rowan is sometimes caught chuckiling and smiling in a humorless scene) are somewhat....bad.
But that is also the "charm" of the show. I like cheeseball 70's stuff, while other are like "What in the Hell are you watching?"

I enjoyed Quark, and I'm happy to own it on dvd.
The humor is dated, but it's still fun to watch.

Really bad shows, with bad acting and poor scripts? I suppose West Wing would be a top choice. Oh, you said we need to enjoy watching it? never mind.

I don't think you can get hold of this anywhere but Deepwater Black (Mission: Genesis) was a terrible show but I'll always like coz of Nicole DeBoer. It used to be on Saturday afternoons over here and I wish I'd kept the tapes.
Buck Rogers (80's) as well. So camp, so crap but amazingly watchable. With cool starfighhters as well.
