Really bad TV shows

I tried to watch Shifting Gears with Tim Allen and Kat Dennings. It’s a wreck. Tim plays a crabby right wing guy who is pissed off at the world. Kat plays his feisty estranged daughter. Kat returns to Tim’s place with her two kids because she is getting a divorced and is broke.

We’ve seen this before. It falls flat in the pilot.

Just what everyone wants to sit down and watch after reading Trump's posts online all day.

It’s a miniseries, but Storm of the Century was a slog to get through. By the end I hardly cared and the Easter eggs I found out about later didn’t mean much.

Even a great cast and brilliant art direction couldn't make "Palm Royale" watchable for me.

R2 dang, that’s one of my favorite miniseries. I rewatch it every couple of years.

R4, it’s really popular here. The scene in the shed is interesting after you know the ending but other than that, I was left cold.

I’m glad they cast Tim Daly though.

Blindspot from a few years ago was the most inept, poorly acted tv show I've seen in years.

The leads COULD NOT ACT!

7th Heaven. Puke.

I watched half an hour of an episode of Gilmore Girls once and had to shut it off. The mom was insufferable.

The worst show I’ve ever seen was an animated one called Superjail. Awful.

r3 Palm Royale was one of those that kept hinting like it was about to get good any moment now... then the episode would end, and I'd think - Eh, I give up. I finished it anyway, but it was sort of a dull mess.

I have never liked a Tim Allen show.

R7 Emily or Lorelei?

All of you are fortunate to not be Canadian. We must have the worst record for stitcoms.

Supposedly the absolute worst of all was "The Trouble with Tracy"

Two Broke Girls for the win. Kat has quite a track record.

The Queer as Folk reboot! So focused on checking all the right boxes for 2022 and no effort to actually be interesting or entertaining.
