    Netizens Are Confused How So Many People Liked These 30 TV Shows Wednesday. Outside of Jenna’s acting it’s pretty bad. It turned Addams Family into something it isn’t. With all the references to social media it really got on my nerves. The Addams Family is a classic that anyone from any age can enjoy. I’m sick of movies and shows trying so hard to appeal to us gen z. “You look like a real life instagram filter”. Like wtf is that dialogue. It’s terrible. No one in my generation talks like this. Why couldn’t the show makers just do what the makers of the Peanuts movie did for Peanuts but for Wednesday and the Addams Family instead. Introduce the Addams Family to new people but keep the charm of the original. Oh yeah and the romance sucked. I don’t understand why those two guys are so in love with Wednesday when she’s so unlikeable. There’s also Wednesday and Morticia having problems with each other when the whole point of the Addams Family is despite being a little weird they are a loving family and have no issues with each other.

    I agree. Especially about that romance part. Why can’t a heroine be good enough, be deemed interesting enough to viewers without some arbitrary love interest? And what also bothered me was how Wednesday time and again commented on Enid‘s looks/personality. The Addams Family was about accepting those who are different, yet here we are with Wednesday judging everyone and everything.

    Netizens Are Confused How So Many People Liked These 30 TV Shows Grey's Anatomy was interesting for a couple of seasons, but then it became more and more and more ridiculous. Everyone f**ked everyone, everyone had a clinical death, etc. (and that was by the 3rd and 4th seasons). I don’t even know what’s happening now.

    Do you mean “Two and a Half Men”? I get it that Ashton Kutcher isn’t as good as Charlie Sheen but Jon Cryer and the late Conchata Ferrell tried to carry the show without him. Ryan Stiles should have been Sheen’s replacement instead of Kutcher, his character deserved more screen time.

    Netizens Are Confused How So Many People Liked These 30 TV Shows During its run, so many people I knew suddenly acted like they were missionaries for Game of Thrones. Practically going door to door, spreading the 'gospel,' and badgering others to pledge that they'd watch it. Even when I'd tell them that I gave it a shot and it wasn't for me, they'd insist that I didn't give it a good enough chance and would interrogate me every time we saw each other about why I didn't watch more of it yet. I spite 'NOT-watched it' even harder.

    As an autistic person even I can pick up that there's a hell of a lot more going on then just "He's autistic". It goes through romance, childhood drama and trauma, family drama with that old guy (can't remember his name) and his guilt about whatever killed his daughter, and basic medical drama. I'd put it on equal footing with New Amsterdam personally

    Netizens Are Confused How So Many People Liked These 30 TV Shows The Office is nine seasons long. And if you ignore the first one (which is pretty meh), it's only downhill with every season after Season 2. It's to the point where it almost starts feeling like different shows broken into different iterations. Like, Jim and Pam from Season 2 through Season 4 is reasonably realistic. Season 5 to Season 7 Michael is just a sitcom with talking head moments. Season 8 to Season 9...can we scrap every last dollar we can out of this?

    Netizens Are Confused How So Many People Liked These 30 TV Shows Rick and Morty isn't terrible. But, I’ve had several conversations with friends who insist it’s the most brilliant show on television and even better than peak-The Simpsons, South Park, and Futurama. The same themes and jokes get recycled endlessly. There is very little of the sharp-cutting social commentary I associate with the other excellent adult-animated shows, and I find the writing fairly pedestrian in general. It’s fun, but I also think many people believe it’s significantly overrated.

    I haven't seen a new episode in 20 years for this exact reason. I remember one of the last episodes I ever watched, the one where Bart and Milhouse take over the Comic Book Guy's store and at the end of the episode Bart says "And we haven't been to school in weeks and weeks". The writers were self aware enough to know that the whole premise had dissolved into irrelevancy. Bart and Lisa never go to school and Homer never goes to work anymore. Nothing of consequence ever happens and it's just a bunch of gags with no payoff.

    Netizens Are Confused How So Many People Liked These 30 TV Shows Doctor Who has a cycle of being absolute trash and then having four of the best episodes you’ve ever seen.

I will stand by David Tennant’s Doctor being peak British TV, though.

    I absolutely love this show. I would have been just a bit younger than them in the 80s. I love watching because it's like watching my childhood. Riding bikes, playing D&D, hanging out at the arcade. I remember my Gramps saying he liked watching A Christmas Story because he would have been about Ralphie's age during that time period. It was comforting nostalgia. Watching Stranger Things, I get what he meant.

    As an introvert former scientist, I get the jokes, as well as the personalities, which I think helps. The only thing difficult to believe is that the nerdy scientists get a beautiful dumb blonde nympho (which Kaley Cuoco plays really well) move in across the hall. We're never that lucky :( If nothing else, it's enjoyable for the cameos - Bob Newhart in particular. It can't be that bad among scientists if the likes of Stephen Hawking and Neil deGrasse Tyson were happy to appear on it.

    I don't particularly like this show, and yet I watch it all the time. I think the actors are much better than the material they're given. It should have finished a few seasons earlier, though. It turned even the likeable characters in to people who just make nasty comments about their best friends. Except Amy - she became wonderful once she had time to develop, then stayed wonderful. And funny.

    Plot & characters aside, the costuming on this show always disrupted my willing suspension of disbelief. Too many long sleeves & layers (not to mention Leonard in his jacket 24/7) considering it takes place in Pasadena. Even in the winter it only gets to the mid-60s (that's about 18C for those across the pond), and in summer you're looking at about 85 (almost 30C). I always felt sorry for the actors; they must have been stifling.

    I watched it with my then-boyfriend, who loved the physics stuff (because he is a physicist). I've contemplated rewatching it again now that I'm single, but every time I do, I catch myself thinking: Why would I really want to? I was invested while I watched it, but that stopped as soon as we watched the whole thing. So yeah, hard pass on this show.

    I thought Sheldon was meant as some sort of ... dunno, lobotomy survivor or so, someone hardly able to think a single tought, but is obsessed with rules and regulations, like the stupid tend to. That he's meant to display an incredibly intelligent human ... didn't really dawn on me. Haven't watched enough, I guess, but I made it far enough to consider him insufferable.

    Really started to dislike it around the time Penny got browbeat into a relationship with Leonard. And the writers are clearly expecting us to be cheering for Leonard and his insistence on never taking her "no" answer seriously. Gross gross gross, no means no.

    Netizens Are Confused How So Many People Liked These 30 TV Shows Bridgerton lost me after Season 2. I HATE that they had to spice it up and deviate from some of the plot. I refuse to watch Season 3 because it will always be the wrong book to have based the season off of, and I can’t get over it. Plus, spoilers for anyone who never read the books, but Eloise would NEVER be friendly with Cressida Cowper. Never, ever, ever. It’s a terrible disservice to that character.

    I feel the opposite. The books are incredibly dated and play into a lot of sexist, toxic tropes. All the men are angry brooding brutes. Some romance scenes border on SA. The characters are basically all the same, especially the Bridgerton men. They hardly have enough personality to tell them apart. The show might not be perfect, but overall it's an improvement on nearly everything the books build.

Don’t get me wrong, some parts are genuinely great, but a lot of the time it just isn’t my cup of tea. I couldn’t really get into it or find myself super invested into them. Not to mention some seasons are rather inferior to another.

    I don't think Succession is all that funny or witty. I need for someone to have at least ONE redeeming quality so I can root for them, even if I know rationally they're a 'bad guy.' For instance Tony Soprano from The Sopranos. He was awful, but damn, if there weren't moments where I was like, 'F**k yeah, Tony!' There isn't a shred of that for me in Succession. They all suck hard. I'd go so far as to say that the show is definitively not a comedy-drama, but rather a full-out tragedy on the pitfalls of parental child neglect and abuse. But, the one-liners serve to distract from that core tenet.

    Season 1 of Big Mouth was kind of great. It really captured what it felt like to be a hormonal teen full of self-shame. Then it got really weird and gross.

    For me its the boys. They use "shock value" in such a cheap way by the time you get to season 2 its just completely tedious. (They are also trying to pass it on as humor that every single character contantly bullies and humiliates the main guy. Whats up with that? Is anybody laughing?).

    Might be controversial on Reddit, but Scrubs. I watched it sporadically during its run and really enjoyed it, thought it was really funny. Went back a couple years ago (during the pandemic lockdown maybe?) to try and watch it all the way through and lasted like half a season. JD is one of the most annoying, obnoxious, try-way-too-hard TV characters out there.

    JD has his bad moments, but he‘s also trying very hard to be a good and caring doctor. That said, I remembered Scrubs as a comedy with some occasional sad moments and then went back to watch it someday. I was not prepared for the depth and tragedy it contained. The episode about everyone’s first patient dying on them to name one of the earliest examples.

And then he's out of the picture again. Totally felt like a writer's tactic.
