EastEnders. One of the most depressing things on TV that.

All the Saturday morning cooking programmes.

Walking dead. From its premise, that seemed like something I'd like, to all my friends telling me I was definitely gonna like it and then it was hugely disappointing. I dont think it was built up too much, No I genuinely dont rate it..

I agree with you on EastEnders.

Tbh I have a lot of Shows that I just don't connect with, but none worse than a Show called The Sinner, Season 1 has to be one of the most torturous seasons of a TV Show that I've ever seen in my life. Along with Locke & Key.

Every singing show (how are these shows still a thing? it's the same every year, and only really about the judges)

Every Reality show (all of them, every single one)

Every Daytime BBC show (Bargain Hunt being the worst, they don't account for commission, the 'bidders' are obviously only bidding on the contestants trash to get their faces on the TV, and they're encouraged by the contestants shouting and cheering them on, so unrealistic and the 'expert is patted on the back if he/she makes a quid profit when in reality they'd be Ł20 down)

Every Soap (emmerdale used to be the only one i could tolerate, i can't now)

Anything involving Claire Balding (luckily her popularity has sunk faster than a pebble in the ocean)

All the Channel 5 Benefit Shows (just ridiculous, cheap to produce rubbish)

There's a lot more i can't stand, and yes im a miserable bastard.

Yeah sure why not? Is this a TV forum then? Seems it has a bit of everything, sports, video games, news, serious debates/discussions.

Well i liked Big Brother, i mean it got worse as it went on mainly because of C5 recruiting Z-Listers for the civilian series. I know BB is classed as reality tv, but idk it's different to all the others.
