What is the actual worst TV series you've ever tried to seriously engage with?
-
You're an idiot. This series requires a fresh start. Your opinion is garbage.
I watched it all and was left disappointed by the end. I like the acting and premise but the slow burn makes for some annoying moves, she jumps hugely without explanation over to their side and then back within like two episodes if not one.
Defimitely some great scenes and moments throughout but as a whole season without another for two years...meh.
Severance is ren times better for on more episode, sikilar thriller with a conclusive step forward that leaves you wanting more at the end of season 1

I don't mean stuff that was obviously bad on sight (to you) and so you didn't bother with, or even necessarily content you just checked out of before the first episode was done. But a series that you ultimately felt wasted your time and abandoned due to its total lack of quality.
The witcher.
Wtf

The Walking Dead. A friend kept telling me how great the show was, but it never really sounded like anything I would find interesting. Sure enough, when I agreed to check it out, it was just so... boring. I couldn't get past the first episode because nothing interesting was happening, despite trying on 3 separate occasions to do so. Finally had to tell my friend that I wouldn't be trying again.
I have to disagree. I agree on the whole that it isn't a satisfying or good show as a whole. But the first few seasons were great. It just failed later.
-
Evil. I tied, I really tried. But the writing was atrociously bad. After 3 episodes, I had to move on.
I enjoyed Evil for a while, but they just kept trying to give the kids bigger parts and it ruined the show for me.

Are there any good adaptations of Asimov besides Fantastic Voyage and Bicentennial Man?
Besides the seminal I, Robot? Not that I know of. Does Data's positronic brain count?

Star Trek Enterprise. I ended up hate watching the whole thing hoping it would get better, but it just kept getting worse.

Firefly
There are worse shows, but this was one of the first where I should have liked everything about it, but instead I hated the campiness.
This is fair.
Firefly is straight up my alley, and I liked it, but itās not in my top sci fi TV.
-
Inside Man (2022) was probably the worst thing I've attempted to watch. I bailed in the first episode, it was absolutely dreadful. The decisions being made by the characters were so far from realistic/believable that it made the drama feel completely contrived and tedious.
Oh man, i watched all of it. It was just awfuland so stupid I couldn't believe what I was watching!
-
Andor. I still have yet to finish the first season. It's ok. It insists on itself. While the premise isn't bad, and the story is ok. I just cannot get into it.
Andor is a slooooow burn. But worth it.
Iām watching it with my Dad, who hasnāt seen it, and he almost fell asleep more than once in the first half. Itās slow. Itās dense. But itās setup; those details come back.
Like others said, you have to watch the prison episodes. If you donāt like it after that, you can definitely drop it.
-
What did you expect from an amazon exclusive TV series? A faithful adaptation true to the original work, or some generic garbage churned out to appeal to the largest audience?
Thatās not universally true. What about Fallout, The Boys, Invincible, Vox Machina/Mighty Nein? And more that escape my mushy brain.
-
I'll probably will be killed for this but it was breaking bad for me. Just so slow and boring. Could see where it was going miles ahead and Walt just kept making dumb decisions which pissed me off. Probably the point of the show or something but I really didn't like it.
Jesse is the foil. Walt makes decision after bad decision and never feels the consequences -- Jesse does.

Supernatural and Smallville wereā¦ too long. I canāt even remember where I dropped them, but it was way too far in already.
I do have a hotter take:
NATLA (Netflix Avatar, the last Airbender) is fine. Itās not bad! Itās like an AU with scenes we never got to see.
I see some people rage that they suffered through the whole season, and donāt get the fuss.

The Haunting was quite terrible but The Leftovers was far far worse.

Firefly

I watched the full season and the movie, but I walked away not feeling much. People claim itās one of the best shows of all time and deserving of a comeback, but I just canāt see it.

True blood. I knew some people who were just obsessed with it and I watched a lot of it and just couldnāt stand it.
The person I was with at the time was very obsessed with this one. The whole supernatural genre in general. It was a big turn on for her and almost every epsode would get paused because we started fucking.
This is only one of many that that we viewed this way together. Turns out there are a lot of shows I will watch when, "doesn't matter, had sex" can be applied.
