Overrated TV shows

[aimz_yeah]

In the vein of the "things everyone loves but you hate" thread... what are some TV shows you think are completely overrated.

I've tried severaql times to get into Breaking Bad and I just can't (this coming from someone with very wide TV tastes). I just don't get the hype!

Anything starring fat, charmless bleep Gervais, with a special mention for 'After Life'.

I can't tell you how fed up I am of going into Primark on a Saturday afternoon, after some cheap and cheerful loungewear or some such, pick up a pair of jogging bottoms thinking oooh they look nice and then it has Harry Potter's face splashed across the arse. Or 'Central Perk' down the thighs. Or 'Winter is Coming' across the tits. Why????????

The hunger games boring load of crap.

Fleabag

Normal People, read it a while ago and finished watching it last week. I thought Connell and his story were good but the rest fell very flat to me, and the whole show was pretty awkward, a bit like twilight back in the day.

Game of Thrones. Tried to give it a fair crack and watched/endured the first few seasons but I still couldn’t get taken in by it. It felt good to hear about how shockingly bad the last couple of seasons were

I much prefer The Witcher when it comes to fantasy. Hope future series’ are as good/better than the first.

Love Island is shite, but this new 2020 series being filmed in Merthyr Tydfil looks to be a bit different so worth a watch

 

[eSsExBiRd]

Stranger Things - I tried but it never clicked

 

[Rockin' Robin]

The Office
Broadchurch
Downton Abbey
Gavin & Stacey

 

[Raininvain]

Bargain Hunt-This needs to be taken off the T.V its so dreadful, middle aged people getting worked up about a pound etc. Its absolute crap. I also hate that gameshow Pointless. Yes that Normal People was crap as well, it was just shagging with little storyline.
Strictly Come Dancing-Total tit.
Yes Friends wasnt even funny,it was just for the brain dead I think.

Fleabag. Good not amazing not the groundbreaking show it’s made out to be.

I'm watching west wing with my husband, who loves it and has watched it through several times. I really want to like it but I just don't get why people like it? Every episode they're just talking about a different policy or political or tax matter and there's very little continuity from one episode to the next. If anyone can explain why it's considered one of the best tv shows of all time I'd genuinely be so interested to hear.

Hmmm for me it is the total opposite. I loved Game of Thrones but can't get into the Witcher.
