My thoughts exactly. The series' decline in quality has rendered every recent episode nigh unwatchable.

Here's hoping Futurama won't meet the same fate.

-Survivor's getting a little long in the tooth....this season is cuh-rayzee boring.
-Entourage
-It saddens me to say it, but The League...they should have stopped after season 1 and left it the perfect jewel that it was. I still love Always Sunny.
-Any show that has 1,000 spinoffs....CSI, Law & Order...I don't watch them, but they need to go away.
-The Real World
-Two and Half Men...when the kid hit puberty. I only watch reruns.

Gilmore Girls. Man, I really liked Lauren Graham but after she slept with and then married her old flame (who is also her baby-daddy), I wanted nothing more than to see the two of them run over by a dump truck. Also, around that time the snappy banter vanished from the entire set. I refuse to buy those last seasons on DVD, as well - incomplete sets be damned.

Oh - Boston Legal's last season was too long (only half the year, even!). Eviscerate the cast of any legitimately funny or interesting people IF YOU MUST, but for God's sake - get Alan and Denny in the sack already and call it a series. Those first couple of seasons were golden, though.

You gotta be kidding me. There hasn't been a single episode yet in which Lily was interesting or entertaining in any way whatsoever.

I'm split on that one. Some of the episodes I've seen so far have been boring, but some have been really good. I didn't see last night's, but last week's was hilarious.

American Idol, no one gives a ****.

Glee- they're running out of good songs to cover, and the show is stupid and I am tired of it being as big of a pop-culture sensation as it is.

Is TRL still on the MTV ? I remember watching it, thinking to myself poor poor carson daly... speaking of which his show needs to be cancelled, its terrible. I'd rather watch infomercials than him talk to semi interesting celebrities. I remember watching his interview of Chuck Klosterman was almost painful, you could see how stupid Klosterman thought the guy was.

Top Gear


















just kidding.

They should not have gotten rid of El Cunado. I still watch...but it's not as quality as the 1st season.

That show should never have existed.

Starting to agree with you here. They should do a spinoff where Sue and Britney just comment on stuff...that's really the only reason to watch anymore.

TRL ended several years ago.

done now, but Lost just got stupid after awhile agree with all the reality shows except Amazing Race, which I can watch forever all those shows about massively boring celebrities' lives. except rev. Run, he's cool heroes wasn't so much a letdown at the end as it was completely unfulfilled potential...I tuned in hoping to watch the knockdown drag out city leveling superhero battles that I loved in comic books. instead I got soap opera drama with a healing factor
