1. Friends - What an unfunny crock of shite
2. Lost - Lost interest very early
3. Will and Grace - Kill me please.

1. Friends.
2. The Office


Actually there's loads of other stuff I don't like (including Will and Grace) but I've never really come across anybody who thinks it's good, so I can't really say it's overrated.  I'm sure I'll think of one in a min.

Friends
Eastenders
Corrie

could you BE anymore wrong about friends?? To be fair when It first came out I used to hate it but I can watch it over and over again

1. Top Gear - used to be OK is now ming
2. Eastenders - misery personified
3. Extras - I just dont find it funny??

1. The Sopranos
2. Star Trek (any of them)
3. Scrubs

Footballers wives
Sex in the city
24

Oh yeah good shout with Scrubs - dont find it funny at all or the IT crowd

Scrubs is immense. You are all badly mistaken.

Overrated top 3:

Mighty Boosh
Anything with Jools Holland
Spooks

The Mighty Boosh
Lost
Newsround

dont slate Newsround - my dad looks like John Craven!!

Yeah scrubbs is a bit too much like friends with haha look surreal bits tacked on. The IT crowd is ace fun just to spot old computer bits in their office.

Thing is with stuff like Enders and Corrie, does anybody actually rate them? Is watching something the same as thinking it's good. Do you look at overrated from a critical, viewing figures, dvd sales, or people you know point of view?

24 is utter bumguff. Lost is almost better because at least they admitted that they have no idea what is going on, 24 is just the mouthflapping of a team stretching out the thinnest of plots over endless weeks so they can get another pay cheque.

Scrubs is just crushingly average by-numbers comedy. Its drippingly moralistic and horribly smug but so is Friends. Except that Friends is/was vastly popular and so really deserves to be on this list.

Newsround was shite, as was/is Blue Peter I hated those programmes, waste of 35 mins of CBBC back in the day.

You should be a Tv critic!

Newsround used to be a menace as I would watch it whilst waiting for Byker Grove/Grange Hill.

Fucking blue peter is going on my list. When I'm the controller of BBC that thing is getting axed quicker than an enemy to the secret neo-viking state.

The Young Ones

Too many to name, as a generalisation
Any programme where the audience has to vote.
Anything with Celebrity in the title
Anything with Cooking in it.
Big steaming pile of shite the lot of it.

1) The mighty boosh
2) The office
3) Red Dwarf

Lost!

I glad I gave up wathing after series one now I've found out what the ending is going to be!

Would you care to share as I have many friends/colleagues who still adore Lost :D

1) The Royal Family. Normally northerners are funny (like PaulD) but zzzzzzz.
2) Little Britain. Batch says no.
3)The Mighty Boosh. This is past surreal and on to WTF.

runners up. Anything with Russel Brand and Jo Brand.

1.Emmerdale
2 Emmerdale Farm
3.All creatures great and small.

deal or no deal. its shit and i dont get it

01) The Mighty Boosh
02) Phoenix Nights
03) Soccer AM - Does this count?

Any episode from the last 10 years of The Simpsons.

you are wrong on no 2.

Fuck, I'm getting my own opinions wrong these days... I guess it's downhill from here  :bye:

I loathe the work of Peter Kay.

ive never ever laughed at Peter Kay, and i watched about half an hour of 1 of his stand up DVDs, just dont get whats funny about him

X Factor
Little Britain
Big Brother

Phoenix Nights is good, as is most early Peter Kay stuff, but he became far too mainstream the minute he started making wads of cash.

...and releasing on DVD what was the essentially the same tour several times with different names.

this is why we could never marry  ;)

that and the fact that he fancies half of the youth team

How dare you...

if u look under my username it clearly states i fancy JFW aswell as the youths thank you very much

Cheer up, old chap :-)

At least there's a match tonight so we won't have to watch any telly whatsoever.

sex and the city
friends
desperate housewives
ugly betty
ER
Holby city
coronation street
emmerdale
red dwarf
question of sport
My family
Chef

all of them are fucking gay wank.

Fully agree...along with any soaps.

I agree with The Office.   As Roy Walker would say it's good but it's not right.  Ok, it's very good and funny but some of these tarts that suckle at Gervais’ hairy teats and proclaim it and him as the comedy god of gods and even worse quote the fucking thing need to be as McNab would say ‘slotted’ right in the sack.

Monty Python.  Like the Office but less so it’s still good in parts to this day but overall has aged like a Paul Gadd step-child.  Part of my hatred again stems from people that quote the fucking thing and I have the burning desire to rip their sacks off with serrated Cilla Black teeth.  Fuckers. 

A bit like the Beatles and their music just because Python were innovators back in the grandfather it doesn’t mean that it’s any good today.  If you can honestly call doped up scousers mumbling over tinny instruments great music then Fatbury will suck you off to completion as your reward.

Finally, and along a similar vein it has to be the Boosh.  Again fucking cracking series and brilliant in parts and shite in others but that’s the beauty of it all but for the love of god these fucking Booshers or what ever they call themselves that proclaim it as comedy genius and obsess over it’s “brilliant zany randomness” need to be fucking chewed up and stuffed down Michael Parkinson’s gullet.    There’s one of the fuckers in my office and he’s started quoting it to go along with his ring tone, screensaver and themed desk clutter.  I want to kill him.

Oh and which cunt deleted my post from lunch?  I keep records of them you twat filed in chronological order so I'll keep posting them again and again until my wanking sticks fall off.

busy day dazza?

Set faces to stunned :o

(OK it wasn't my joke).

1.) Desperate Housewives
2.) Sex and the City
3.) Clone

star trek,dr who,corrie.
the office and the royal family are both ace by the way!

Nope not really the wanking spanners are smoking at the hilt.

Thought as much, Ive done fuck all all day, this retirement lark is ace. champs league starts in aminute too.

Can I have a job to continue your empire and make you even more rich? I'm hard working, reliable, redundant and also have a life threatening illness.

£35k pa and I'm all yours.

 :)

1 Only Fools and Horses after series 1
2 Auf Weidersehn Pet
3 Life 0n Mars

im not rich, just happy.

...oh,and the Vicar of cunting Dibley.And Absolutely fucking Awful with J Saunders and J.Lumley

I have to agree. That bit where they sit around and chat pretending to be funny, is the most contrived piece of telly I've ever seen. Clarkson is just a C...actually the word cunt doesn't even come close to what a cunt he is. The small chap is just a twat and the other one is a bumbling moron. All this 'you don't have to like cars to like this programme'  bollocks. You just need a tiny penis and a brain the size and consistency of a Munch Bunch Squasham.

I'm not a fan of Top Gear... James May is one of those privately educated posh Bristolians who I tend to dislike. I can't believe Clarkson is only 48, he's been around forever! Clarkson is Clarkson - he's supposed to be disliked. Hammond is the type of "celebrity" who releases a book pretty much on the basis of a vehicle crash, and is just generally annoying.

Each to their own.

1. primeval
2. merlin
3. any soap

Is Merlin rated though? I've heard nothing but bad reviews.

...and the Merlin ad in the cinemas makes it look awful too.

i think merlin is ace :)

I can't say "I've heard nothing but bad reviews" anymore. Cheers.

Some friends call me James May because i have a habit of talking for ages about stuff no one cares about and my choice of shirts can sometimes be a considered straight out of Gay Camp. My hair was also not dissimilar to his for a period as well. Oh and i love Top Gear, have a token penis and my brain is a bit of an enigma, so spacey can't be too far wide of the mark.

I like Merlin as well.

Well, my face is red. When I say "I've heard nothing but bad reviews", I think the basis that of that comment was from no more than three people.

It's now become an average television, from what I've heard.

;)

I'll push it over the line into positive then - the kids love it, required Sat night viewing in our house

I like it too. I've got it series linked on my Sky+  :-[

Spot on!

I fucking love Top Gear.

My missus likes Merlin, which tends to mean it's a bit shit.

Doris Gump!!!  :eek: :D

By all accounts I've heard mostly good things about Merlin.
