Default

The Mandalorian
FBI: International
The Sinner
Only Murders In The Building
War Of The Worlds (the one with Gabriel Byrne, not the BBC series)

My reasons for picking them are.

The Mandalorian - It's a Star Wars Show and it has a tiny number of characters, and a very, very, very basic plot imo. Plus the two leads have zero personality.

FBI: International - I watched 21 episodes and I just remember wondering why am I doing this to myself? The main story was barren, the episodic stories were boring and sometimes even preachy, and the characters (minus the Dog) had zero personality and two of the four leads were hardly even developed throughout the entire Season.

The Sinner - Tbf to The Sinner I was torn on if I should put it in the list or not (as I did have a strong 6th candidate) and on a different day I probably would pick the 6th candidate over The Sinner, because tbf The Sinner does have more character to it than the other Shows that I was considering, but I do feel that the writing was really painful, in a way that I don't think that I regularly see from a TV Show, so on one hand it's arguably more entertaining than some Shows out there, but the writing is so bad and illogical it's hard to overlook the problem.

Only Murders In The Building - A Murder Mystery Comedy series that had a terrible Murder Mystery and about two jokes that imo were even remotely funny, tbh I didn't really detect many jokes from the Show.

OMITB struck me as a Show that was more happy to be a Drama, and the fact that it had big stars on the Show, rather than write a compelling Murder Mystery or being wickedly funny.

Admittedly I did only watch the First Season, but tbh I do think that's more than enough to judge a Show, because at the end of the day if I'm having to wait until the second Season for a Show to even start doing what I was expecting it to do in the First Season then it's already failed.

War Of The Worlds - Possibly the most boring TV Show of all time, nothing interesting happens in the entire Season, again I haven't watched the sequel Seasons, but I wouldn't want to, you'd have to pay me handsomely to go through this Show again.

I didn't pick any Shows where I only saw one or two episodes because tbf they might've grown on me.
