TV shows you can't believe exist.

[Vortigar]

Personally I can't believe the BBC were mad enough to green light Monty Python.

It's both so stupid and so genious that it should never have been. But hey there it is.

Bicycle repairman to the rescue!

When I went to America I was surprised at the ludicrous amount of Judge Judie rip-offs.

I'm absolutely stunned that you didn't say the Red Dwarf remake for the US.
Or for that matter, the US remake of Coupling.
Ya Smeghead.

I wanted to find Charlie Sheen's house and beat him within an inch of his life with a Chair Leg of Truth (cookie for reference).

"When asked about the column by our correspondent, Jerusalem Laughed, shat in the camera and threw dog carcasses to an admiring audience."

And without those idol shows we wouldn't have gems like these:

The new Hawaii Five-0. Did they even watch the original? It's just CSI Miami(Bruckheimer Productins of course) that takes place in Hawaii and just happens to have the Hawaii Five-0 theme. Every Bruckheimer produced show is exactly the same just different settings and characters.

 

[Senaro]

The Jersey Shore. Though really, just about any "reality" show that involves people behaving like children to score ratings. Most of those women aren't even ATTRACTIVE. I can't see the appeal whatsoever.

 

[The_root_of_all_evil]

So fellow escapists, which TV shows rank up on your list of shows we should hide from our alien friends, should we contact them, so that they don't 'deathstar' us into oblivion.

I think I win this automatically

Touch The Truck [http://www.tvscoop.tv/2008/05/remembering_tou.html]

Premise: Twenty People Touch The Truck Until One Is Left.

That's it. 81 hours of that. Every hour filmed. That Is ALL There Was To It.

Unnecessary caps for emphasis.

 

[SMILEYkyle21]

Like so many before have said... JERSEY SHORE.... seriously WTF are you thinking???? I don't understand
Also most of that crap on Disney that my little sister watches is pretty bad too (Miley Cyrus, Jonas Brothers etc all need to go away plz)

 

[Marowit]

Any reality or fly-on-the-wall TV show.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

They're just the worst kind of entertainment and trash - in my opinion.

 

[omega 616]

The simple life, Jersey shore, The only way is Essex, Skins, Little Britain, A shot at love with Tila Tequila, Paris Hilton's best friend thing, Hollyoaks and other one I can't remember the name of were a bunch of chav on a community order get zapped by a storm and get special powers including a girl, who when she touches somebody they get mega horny and want to shag her, no joke.

Special mention for the news, seriously, we have entire channels dedicated to news, news papers, the net and yet we still need countless programmes to it!

The first three are just painful to watch, orange morons being made famous (or more so).

Skins is white trash TV, the worst of English people proudly being broadcast as entertainment.

Little Britain just isn't funny, there is no wit or intellect in it. Of course not everything needs these, I think Mr Bean is funny but Little Britain fails, hard.

Tila seems to be a Paris Hilton wannabe, which is just sad.

Best friend thing makes me die a little inside, why not just go to a club and meet new people? These contestants get treated like slaves, there not going to be friends, more like somebody to laugh at.

Hollyoaks, piss poor actors with really old, well used story lines and often laughable script.

The last one speaks for itself, I think.

 

[Mr Fixit]

Jersey. F***ing. Shore.
/thread.

I get mocked for watching shows, only for said people to go on prattling about that waste of airtime.

My thoughts exactly, I despise that show with every fiber of my being.

 

[imnot]

x factor, eastenders, shopping channels,ah fuck it 90% of tv is shit.

 

[Hashime]

Anything and everything on Disney Channel nowadays.
Whatever happened to shows like Even Stevens?

fuck yeah, even stevens was the shizzness. young shia le beouf with his curly hair and his hot sister (i dont know why i thought she was hot, i was a strange kid )

A. That was a great show
B. The sister wasn't bad looking, so I wouldn't say you were strange.

 

[Hashime]

Jersey Shore,The simpsons( let it die it sucks so bad and everyone knows it), Anything to do with logging swamp loggers, heli loggers, deal or no deal, Day time daily dramas, coronation street, anything to do with dwarfs, women who give birth like rodents, I don't care if you cranked out 14 kids. Celebrity/ hollywood news shows. Gossip shows. White trash talk shows. There is just so much crap tv out there its hard to point them all out.

If TLC had a dwarf cake artist who had 12 kids with one diagnosed with cancer, the rest in beauty pageants they would not need any other shows.

I saw who Snookie from that Jersey reality show is for the first time last night. I was speechless.

She looks like an overcooked steak plastered in paint after being hit with a stick.

 

[Hashime]

Heil Honey I'm home. [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HeilHoneyImHome].

It's a show about Hitler trying to kill his Jewish neighbors.

I made it 10 seconds into the theme song.

 

[NeedAUserName]

Anything the Disney channel makes, I mean theirs kids TV, then theirs the sinister mind numbing agenda the Disney Channel seem to have. I swear, if I hear the opening to Hannah Montana one more time, I'm hunting that ***** down.

 

[Megacherv]

Jersey. F***ing. Shore.
/thread.

This...

We've got a thing going on at the moment called The Only Way Is Essex. It's an absolute car-crash, the most preposterous idea for a TV show I've heard of in a very long time... and quite easily the best thing that's been on British TV all year.

I can't even explain it. Just... if you can watch it by any means, do so. I usually hate this sort of thing but I'm completely addicted. It may have something to do with the fact that I'm from the same area, my cousin knows two of the people in the show from school.

...aaaaaand this.

Makes me glad that Russell Howard's Good News, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, QI and Harry Hill's TV Burp are currently on.

 

[Communist partisan]

sex and the city, twin peaks, paradise hotel, american dad, scrubs, my name is earl, desperate hosewifes, community, Stargate universe and atlantis and the later seasons of SG1, cops, lost, 24, amazing race, fear factor (it was a lot better before), robot wars (also a lot fucking better before) and a lot more of crap they call entertament

 

[Valksy]

Any reality show shit like Jersey Shore - seriously, stop watching other people's lives and go out and live your own you sad twat....

 

[robotam]

'Paris Hilton's My New BFF'

A show in which Paris Hilton searches for a new best friend. Even the premise makes me weep.

This. And the British version she did. Because the best way to find a best friend is to advertise yourself on reality TV so stuck up slags can try befriend you to have a share of your money.
I hate her so much. I wanted to audition and bring a shotgun.

Also, my super sweet 16. People like that exist????
I saw a clip on it on a Charlie Brooker show and seriously nearly retched.

Woah, you scared the crap out of me there. I misread and thought you were saying you almost retched because you didn't like Charlie Brooker.

Me, I'd go for that Lee Mack sitcom "Not Going Out". It's really unfunny.

 

[stillstanding134]

Yeah I won't be surprised if Cartoon Network turns into the next Disney channel. Cartoon Network used to be my favorite channel when I was growing up. {I'm currently sixteen]

I think Nickelodeon is desperately trying to be the new disney channel more than cartoon network
