PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Critically Acclaimed, But I Still Say They Suck!" |
I often agree with critical consensus when it comes to movies and music. Generally, if a movie or album does not receive high praise from critics it is very doubtful that I'll see or listen to them. I'm certainly not going to spend money on something that looks or sounds crummy.That being said, I'm not often in agreement with the majority of television critics. Too often I read that certain shows are definitely worth my time, only to tune in and find out they definitely weren't. Here's a list that I absolutely hated, but critics, and sometimes audiences, ate them up. Friends-One of the most annoying shows ever conceived. I hated all six characters because they came off as phony and full of themselves. These were the kinds of people you hated back in high school. Everybody Loves Raymond-Not me. I hated him. I also hated his wife. Plus, wouldn't all of their problems have been solved if they had just moved away from Ray's parents? Grey's Anatomy-Hey, it's "ER"...only soapier! And with more female problems! Did you ever know a girl who could never seem to control her emotions, even if the situation didn't call for her to be emotional in the first place? Well, every girl on "Grey's Anatomy" fits that description. Sports Night, Gilmore Girls Nobodypausetotakeabreathorthedialoguewontbefunny. Thatmakeseverythingseemsomuchmoreclever! Actuallyitsjustasannoyingwhenitypelikethishuh? Sex and the City-Ok, I'm not a girl. But this show still seems very ridiculous to me. Plus, how every one of these girls didn't end up with crabs is beyond me. Two and a Half Men-Very unfunny. And since the little boy is so fat I think we can remove the "Half" tag now. Law & Order-It's not that it's a bad show, it's simply a show that I would never watch on a week to week basis. All the episodes seem alike. Worse, there never seems to be any type of character developement. Any more that need to be added to the list?

Agree with Friends, Raymond, Grey's, Sex, 2 1/2Disagree Sports Night and Gilmore Girls. I like rapid fire random conversion. Note to self, if I ever get peepmeet with Bacon, slow down, avoid unnecessary references, and let him be the one to change the subject. Law and Order. I actually hate when my procedural shows get too involved in the people's lives and characters. Especially because when they do it generally it is a sweeps stunt. My Never Got: Arrested Development. I tried to like that show, I know the critics loved it, I just didn't quite get it. Picket Fences, I think I just didn't watch from the beginning and I didn't feel like doing all the research to understand it.
