The Walking Dead thread got me thinking

[hatfieldms]

That is one show that is extremely popular that I have never had any interest in watching. What are some popular shows that everyone seemed to love that you never cared to even give it a chance?

 

[AFDawg]

Lost. Maybe because I didn't find out about it until near its end, but I rebelled against the obsession.

 

[AFDawg]

Also, this isn't TV, but anything Harry Potter.

Sorry, Bob C.

 

[Vv83]

The Wire. I tried and I couldn't get past the 2nd episode. Maybe I just didn't pay attention enough to understand the big deal but I just couldn't get into it.

 

[PBRME]

Burn Notice appears to have a big following. I didn't make it through the 2nd episode on Netflix.

 

[Hump4Hoops]

Big Bang Theory. Can never take more than a minute.

Just seems to be a show by non-nerds for non-nerds that makes fun of nerds.

 

[WrapItDog]

The Office

 

[state2013]

Game of thrones, a story set in a fantasy world with lots of cameo dong appearances. No thanks.

 

[Tater Jones]

Any of the CSI's. Just don't care for the boring crime shows and their lame puns while solving stuff.

 

[AFDawg]

That one too.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Mad Men. And Got doesn't hang as much dong any more than any other HBO program. You've probably watched that south park episode and formed your opinion off of it.

 

[Seinfeld]

I'll second Man Men. I've tried watching that show several times, and it puts me to sleep every time.

Let me add Grey's Anatomy as well

 

[Hump4Hoops]

I'll second Grey's Anatomy. And I've enjoyed doctor shows.

Loved House, Scrubs, even E.R. back in the day.

 

[greenbean.sixpack]

Sorpranos. And I agree about Game of Thrones, I've half heartily watched the series, but I don't see the obsession (other than the midget, he's awesome).

 

[PBRME]

Seeing House reminds me to add it to the list. Every episode is some illness with a strange symptom. The team makes a textbook diagnosis. House disagrees and tries something radical saving the life of the sick patient.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

How I Met Your Morther

.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

You could say the same thing about every crime fighting show ever.

 

[starkvegasdawg]

24
Friends
Seinfeld
American idol
Basically any show that comes on networks I have never or rarely watched.

the last ship is truning out to be pretty good.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Don't know how I forgot this. Don't find it funny at all.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Forgot 24. I just couldn't get into it.

 

[jb1020]

Thought I was the only one

I went out of my way to try and get into 24, could never make it thru an episode.

 

[mcdawg22]

Third Mad Men. It's like The English Patient the TV show for me, instant Ambien. I noticed I don't watch any sitcom with a laugh track or audience, and when I do it's seems weird to me now. I haven't watched any Law and Order, SVU,STD,NCIS,CSI,INXS. I also loathe all reality TV shows especially if it involves poor or rich rednecks. I will watch a reality show based on food competition though.

Friends
Seinfeld

There's something wrong with a person who doesn't watch Seinfeld.

 

[Sutterkane]

If you want a funny show about nerds, look up The IT Crowd.

It picks on nerds but the nerds also pick back since most people don't know **** about computers.

 

[skb124]

Watched the first two seasons of Breaking Bad, but never got hooked. Never had a desire to watch Mad Men either. I'm a big fan of the other two AMC shows in Walking Dead and Hell on Wheels, though. I've also never been a big Seinfeld or Friends fan.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

You're the first person I've met who put that much time into breaking bad and didn't get hooked. I don't know how many times I've watched thru it. If if nothing good is on tv I instantly put breaking bad on

 

[skb124]

Yea, I know of one other person that just couldn't get into it, but I'm definitely in the minority. I may still go back and watch it at some point, though.

MadMen. I gave it half a season. Seemed slow as hell.
2 1/2 Men and Two Broke Girls. 2 1/2 men is ok but nothing I'd go out of my way to watch. Two Broke Girls is terrible as far as I can tell from the one or two shows I've caught.

 

[Sutterkane]

Two Broke Girls is all dick jokes from a chick with huge tits.

 

[patdog]

I watched about 5 minutes of Two Broke Girls when it first came on because I liked Kat Dennings in the one movie she was in that I saw. It was unbearable. No matter how hot the two broke girls are.

 

[johnson86-1]

Two Broke Girls is all dick jokes from a chick with huge tits.

That makes it sound so much better than it is.

 

[Frexzell]

NCIS, CSI, Bachelor, Tru Blood, Grey's Anatomy

 

[crushing]

I'll second The Office. My brothers think it's the best show on TV, so I had to give it a chance. I watched around 3 different episodes and I just couldn't get in to it.

 

[ArcherSPS]

If any of you say Arrested Development, I will track you down.

 

[kired]

Duck Dynasty - I've tried to watch it a few times, but probably haven't seen 30 minutes total in my life.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

My girlfriend. When I had a roommate we watched it all the time and she'd leave the room. And it's not that she has ****** girl taste, she has a very good taste in shows and film, except that she hates A.D. and likes true blood
