I'd like to start the blasphemy with Buffy the Vampire Slayer was god-awful!

Damn,
I loooooooooved the Buffy series. Had some low spots, but overall a great fun series from beginning to end.
Now any show with Cops, Lawyers, or Doctors as the central figures pretty much sucks in my opinion. Doesn't leave much else to watch tho. :dunno

I despise all reality crap. I cannot figure out why anybody watches it. I would call them all stupid, but since mom watches Surviver, I'll refrain.
I was walking through the living room the other night and wife had Glee on. I noticed a kid in a wheel chair playing in a football game. F - that's all I need to see.
Slightly off subject, I just watched the new(er) Battlestar Galactica series on Netflix. I went in with low expectations, I had watched parts of a couple of episodes on Sci-Fi back in the day, but was lost and couldn't get past that the Cylons were humans. Anyway, pretty badass show for the most part. Most of the 'science' was actually plausible (bullets...not laser beams that make sound, debris in space after a ship gets blown up, etc.) At least until the last season, when they brought in all the mysticism...but still better than most crap on TV. If you like the genre and have Netflix, l highly recommend.

and if anyone says Lost.... well lets say I don't want to have to hurt you.

You kidding?!?! Dexter is amazing. It has sex, violence, and clever writing. You NEED to see what happens in the next episode. My GF and I watched the entire series up until the 5th season on Netflix. Cant wait for it to get season 5 on there.
MTV as a network is god awful. I hate the Kardashians, or Kendra, all the stuff makes me wanna :puke
I think the Office is the most overrated show EVER. Lost is trash, I started watching it but then it got terrible on the 3rd season, and they never answer any questions, it just raises new ones.
Tru Blood is starting to get up there... The last season was kinda getting on my nerves...

A good show that never got to be very popular just ended last night:
Friday Night Lights
I'm definitely glad I didn't watch Lost when it first came out and just caught up with it. Watching week to week would have been a big let down.
Had Glee on after the Superbowl and it seems HORRIBLE. Looked like it just hit every stereotype and I guess the musical numbers might be worth it if I was in to that, but the story lines seemed ridiculous. Maybe it's suppose to be like that? :dunno

Buffy was awesome although admittedly it took a few seasons for it to hit it's stride (much like star trek shows).
M*A*S*H is a down-right classic and anyone who doesn't like it must have mental issues. They've shown the re-runs every morning on tvland for years and even though I've seen eevery episode about 3 dozen times I still get enjoyment out of it. There is a subtlety about both of those shows masked by their blatent-ness. Some people just don't get it.
Hmm... terrible shows that are popular...
Any procedural crime drama (law and order, csi NCIS, ect)..... Twice as offensive for every spin-off it's produced.
Any contest reality show in which a person without talent has or can win. Also applies to talent shows that revolve around a lame talent (dancing shows).
Any reality show in which the stars of the show don't have a real job. (Jersery shore.... real housewives, ect).
Shows that are remakes of older, better originals (hawaii 5-0, V... all that remake crap nbc already cancelled a few years back)
Cartoon remakes that rape our childhood memories (gi-joe renegades, transformers prime ...ect)
Naruto
90% of the NBC comedy lineup
50% of Fox's animation domination
Jay Leno's tonght Show (Conan FTW)
Any show on CBS
Any show on ABC
Any reality show on VH1
Any Reality Show on MTV
Dragon Ball Z
Every Disney Tween Dramady Show that has or will be produced
Every Teen Nick Tween Dramady Show that has or will be produced
I think that's it, but there is so much to hate on tv that I'm not sure. For quality programming I suggest watching cable stations.
