I actually don't hate Buffy but it's just that the fans treat it as if it's this perfect show when it's not imo, also i've seen it all before so I don't know why it gets so much credit.

There's probably more but I will have to think about it.

Most overrated - Any soap/reality singing competition. And yeah, Doctor Who.

Most underrated - Futurama (It's always Simpsons vs Family Guy vs South Park. Futurama trumps all.)

Overrated (commercially): Facejacker. It just isn't funny at all.
Overrated (critically): Doctor Who. Its so crap. It always repeats itself and ugh I hate it.

Underrated (commercially): Battlestar Galactica (the 2003 series). Most people turn their noses up at it because they think its some crap, stupid sic-fi show, but its really a drama thats just set in space. It never got the commercial credit it so rightfully deserved.
Underrated (critically): Mrs Brown's Boys. I don't get why critics hate it. Its so ****ing funny.
