Big Bang Theory comes to mind for me.

    I'll agree with you. I've seen part of it a couple of times and I don't get it.

    Also, though I've never (and will never!) watch it, that zombie show looks absolutely terrible. You'd have to pay me to watch it!

    Walking Dead. Never heard of Z Nation, but I just say no to zombies, period.

    I enjoy my fair share of crappy TV shows, though. I'm not judging! : )

  • Walking Dead?   I like it, but it honestly has bad moments and long stretches that are almost painful to endure.   The writers love to draw things out and fill the seasons with a lot of meaningless BS.
    This season so far is a perfect example.   They love to give you a cheap cliff hanger, come in with a really good episode next season( or half season) with a good episode,  then give you more boring and pointless filler until the next season finally.   I sometimes wish I never got into it because I watch so much cheap crap writing at times.

    Yeah, that's the one. The entire concept seems completely stupid to me, but I know lots of people who love it, or did at one time. The entire idea of zombies is just too ludicrous for me.

  • They use the plot device in an interesting and different way.  Which is cool, they just seem to write themselves into corners often times and some of the episodes and seasons seem to be them trying to figure out WTF to do now.

    Again, it would be easier to answer if there were only one choice.  But almost everything on tv fits that bill.  Anything popular sucks the big one.  I am speaking mainly of regular TV not HBO or the rest of them. but even those aren't worth the cost of keeping them running monthly.

  • Sit-coms, soaps, quiz shows, reality TV -
    If I see just the trailers, that's enough to avoid them.

    One exception occasionally is Steven Fry's QI.
