Deaperate Housewives.

Fortunately, Danish TV2 has now decided to show this )&¤¤"! at 3 in the morning when only desperate men are awake. And no, I am sound asleep at that hour.

Well I'm not too likely to agree after mentioning it in my favourites. Could this be the Drury of TV shows?

Think I'd just nominate a load of soaps for this. Neighbours and Coronation Street spring to mind.

Too many to count.....

Start with MTV and its drivel. Anything with Brittany, Paris, Ozzy, the Barkers or the Hulkster I will avoid like the plague. I hate my offspring watching it too.

Next down the list is the rest of the Reality shows.

Worst TV show, gotta be a toss-up between Frontline and any show that quotes the New York Times in a positive light.

"Champions aren't made in gyms, champions are made from something they have deep inside them - a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill. " - M. Ali

Yes, blame it on the Americans, Aussies and Japanese! It really shouldn't be allowed to have a broadcast at 3 am!

I don't watch a lot of TV but I find Fox News rivetting if only for the lunacy of its presenters. It's a bit like a car wreck. You know you shouldnt slow down to rubber neck but invariably you cant help yourself.

- nip tucs (or whatever it is called: that one with the always "hot" surgeon)
- Big Brother
- those embarrassing talk shows with only stupid persons who discuss EVERYthing on tv
- musicshows with "Schlagern" and "Heimatmelodien" (= this Oktoberfest sound...)
- a lot of animated cartoons for children
- most political talk shows

tv sucks most of the time

I know what you mean and I'm feeling similarly about it. Actually it wasn't the presenters who upset me but the audacious flag waving attitude displayed in any show I happened to see on that channel (BTW my FoxNews experiences are from my time in Sydney, Oz :-).

Fox News. Those people are either hypocritcal to the nth degree (they can't really believe all the &^%$#@# they spout, can they?), or they are so incredibly ignorant that it defies all logic/reason.

I'm enjoying the discussions of TV shows, movies, and what have you.

I think its a BIG mistake to let discussions of politics and religion take root here.
I'm as partisan as the next guy (maybe more so). I'm "serious" enough about my politics that I won't do business with companies that support the opposition.

I would really prefer to remain ignorant of other individuals political affiliations.

i agree that discussing politics and/or religion might not be the best thing

having said that, i'd also like to know what people mean when they say some of the things they say... the newscaster for fox is shepard smith.... i honestly haven't seen any 'audacious flag waving' from him or any incredibly ignorant statements

now if the discussion is on political shows/pundits, that might be different.. but the posts mentioned fox news, so the assumption i make is the anchor, shepard smith
