Default Tv shows you’ve never understood the hate for?
A nice change from what do you hate most

I never really got the hate for Mrs Browns Boys, i don’t find it funny but there’s much worse on TV

The Big Bang Theory is one. I'm not saying it's without its flaws, and I can see why it's not for everybody, but people getting outright enraged about an average sitcom with harmless tropes I find a little alarming. Granted, I don't agree with it ever being labelled as one of the greatest TV shows ever either, but if there's nothing else on, I see no harm in watching it.

BBT started to turn sour when Bernadette arrived and turned almost unwatchable when Sheldon & Amy got serious.

I don't understand why some people get angry at soaps for existing.

Lost was great for the MOST part. Also I loved the ending, shame most people didn't get it but it's pretty well explained imo

Ugh, yes, it was such a GREAT show but people gave it so much slack for no reason!

Everyone loves to slate EastEnders for being ‘too depressing’ but I’m watching a soap not a comedy! (see: Corrie)

Mrs. Brown's Boys may be overrated and not brilliant, but it is far from the worst thing to happen in comedy. It is funny at times and O'Carroll's delivery is excellent. It's far, far better than Miranda, the Inbetweeners and Friday Night Dinner - to name a few recent comedies. Still wouldn't watch it, mind

Falling Skies as it gets negatively compared to TWD despite actually having an existing plot.

Star Trek Enterprise was a fun Star Trek imo yet it gets a lot of hate from the Trekkie community, so I'm probably in the minority in having my opinion of the Show.

Gundam Seed is again actually quite good in many ways if you can overlook some really bad flaws which sadly a lot of Gundam fans still can't to this day.

Innocent Venus is also a really good Anime imo but it scores a 5.7/10 on IMDB which I honestly don't get why? It has adventure elements, Drama, Action, and Sci-Fi/Mecha elements, and Gora can be a funny character. And there's a good plot twist too. What's not to like?

I'll leave at those as I have quite a few Shows that I like that get a bad rep in some circles.

Lost was an entertaining Show, but I do think that the ending could've been better.

Mind you it's not the worst ending of a TV Show I've ever seen either.

EastEnders gets too much hate imo when it easily has the best cast and story lines in soap!

Hollyoaks is by far the best soap of them all with consistent entertainment. The others are simply too dull.

Friends by the woke generation

Got season 8

I didn't not get it, I just thought it was ****

Mine is the Voice, people don't seem to be able to enjoy a show without watching people being humiliated and fake judge feuds

+1 on this one.
You don't have to be a genius to understand the ending. People really thought the explanation to it all was going to be something so big or whatever.
I mean at least they didn't like just the ending, not the whole show.
