Crap TV

[Bells]

This is your basic thread to discuss bad crappy shows that are on TV now, and why they suck so baddly like a sucky tumor.

You can compare a current season of a show to its former ones, or its former years... we are not talking about just sitcons or Actio-Television, Talk shows, reality-crap and other stuff also counts... if its on TV and it Sucks, this is where its belong.

Let the ranting begin!

CSI: Miami.

I am actually waiting for the episode where the entire CSI Team gets blown up or something to end the show.

I'd prefer it, but that's just me. The point of the thread is to rant, no? I have low standards for pretty much everything, so I find X-Play mildly humourous and actually informative (my sister tried to ignore their warnings of a crappy game by renting it. She returned it the next day).

I would like to declare that Smallville sucks...

While Lionel Luthor is more interesting than pretty much everyone else, Lex has Mental Conditions a few "well-placed" memory losses and a dumb atitude, Jor-El is a Dick, Clark is a semi-asshole, Jonathan Kent is dead (WTF?!), There are way too many especial guests (Funny enough, no female superhero yet), Lois sucks, lana REALLY sucks and Chloe is the "Filler Girl", and the Small town of Smallville is more advanced than many cities...

Nice

That stupid shaw channel that displays the news......

'Nuff said.

Well actually, it just bugs me because it is on 3 channels on my tv! 3!

General Hospital.

My mother has been watching that show every fucking day of the week, ever since she was 17 years old. I've never liked that show, because people do not freakin' talk loud enough to understand what the fuck is going on, because it somehow shows that rich people have nothing else to do than to ruin each others lives in either embarrassing or fatal ways, because the children do not seem to go to school at all (or have a decent futur for that matter) and the adults never seem to work, because the plot takes so much fucking time to go anywhere just because the producers want to make the show 30 freakin' years long and because the idea of this kind of thing on television makes me want to vomit my own eyes out if was possible, shove them into my ears and logde them into my brain, where I'm sure something intelligent is going on.

In a nut shell, watching flies fuck is more interesting than watching this show, or watching any other Soap on television.

Grey's Anatomy

I can't stand this show for some reason... my mom watches it, so occasionally id catch an episode on a sunday night, mainly because i didnt want to have to go and face the next monday, leaving me to suffer through an hour through it. I remember the superbowl episode, hyped with something called a code black, me and my friends thought of a plague or some ridiculously contagious disease, and i started to watch it caus i thought it would be interesting.

Turns out a fucking explosive had been lodged in someones throat... seriously...

CSI: Miami.

Frankly, all the CSI shows are all the same, aside from the sets. Basically, it follows the formula of main character who is at least intended to be awesome with a back-up squad of folks who really aren't terribly dissimilar from one another (and when one does try to stand out, oh god, the horrible acting that ensues!) and then some dumbass mystery that makes Scooby Doo look like Sherlock Holmes.

The resulting plot usually does everything it can to lead you in one obvious direction before trying some half-assed plot twist that would make M. Night Shyamalan cringe at the very end. Then they roll credits before the audience has time to go, "Hey, wait, that couldn't have worked at all!"

My point is Jerry Bruckheimer can go to hell.

This saddens me, because it used to be pretty good. Honestly, I'd like to just chalk this up to a case of a show passing its prime and then being forced to continue on the air forever because it's still a major ratings draw (I'm looking at you, Simpsons!). I haven't had G4/TechTV/whatever the hell it is anymore in so long that I'm happy to say I left the show on a good note, and leave it at that.

I would like to declare that Smallville sucks...

Another case of a show that, really, wasn't altogether terrible back in the day. I rather appreciated the early years when it was basically just "X-Files With Superman". There was an interesting take on Lex Luthor's whole progression toward supervillainy, Lionel was all kinds of awesome, Chloe actually had a damn reason for being there, and it hadn't gotten to the point where you just wanted Lana to shut the fuck up and die.

Now it's just at the point where they've not only jumped the shark, but they flew around the shark in the opposite direction of Earth's orbit, hit the speed of light, traveled back in time, and jumped the shark's grandfather.

Grey's Anatomy

See, here's a show where, if I started writing it right now, I would have them all have them barred from practicing medicine for the past couple years worth of constant malpractice every single one of those idiots has performed on the show and then have them spend the next 10 years battling lawsuits until they were all out on the street living on a diet composed entirely of half-dead rats and meth amphetamine, because that's what would happen to them in real life.

This is a show where you need to give up and call it a day when the book was more entertaining.

As far as I'm concerned this thread's title is a tautology.
