Popular tv programmes/ films that you didnt like

[Gully]

Most of the above plus last of the summer wine, I always thought that it portrayed northerners as incredibly stupid, which we all know they aren't.

sex and the city - watched the very first episode the fitst time it was shown on channel 4 cos I was about 14 and it had the word 'sex' in the title. However, in the first epsiode, there is no sex. So, being the age i was, i lost interest.

Royle Family - not that i didn't like it, i have never watched so don't know if i like it.

Blackadder - same as royle family.

ER, Casualty, Holby City etc. - hospital dramas don't do it for me.

any of the soaps (except Hollyoaks and Neighbours) - too much effort to watch them every day and are boring anyway. Hollyoaks and Neighbours can be watched about once a week and you still know what is going on.

as for films:
Lord of the Rings
Harry Potter
The Matrix

I don't really like sci fi/fantasy.

 

[Brovion]

Far, far too many too mention, but quite a few of my bete noirs have had a namecheck on this thread. Apart from 'Frasier' I think I agree with almost every one. Good call Easy 10 on OFAH, however as you say criticising it can get you locked up in the Tower.

 

[Brovion]

... but not Blackadder!

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

OFAH - one belly laugh every 500 episodes....guaranteed!
Dad's Army
League of Gentlemen


Whilst I would have to defend The Office and say that it is the dogs, Series Two is just painful viewing at times, rather than full of laughs.

O Christ

Were does one begin

Comedies , (well in the loosest sense of the word)

Open all hours, Last of the summer wine

Films- Sleepless in Seattle , Charlies Angels Full throttle

And most of all BIG BROTHER. I hate it with a passion

 

[Yorkie]

All soaps except Neighbours (I agree with the sentiment above above about picking up story lines and they're not too contraversial)

Any films. I think going to the cinema or watching a film on tv is a total waste of time. I'd rather read a book.

Most comedies made in the last 10 years. I like the old ones like Dad's Army, Porridge etc.

 

[Cian]

This is gonna be a looooong list

TV:
Only Fools And Horses
The Office
Bo Selecta
Little Britain
*ANY* soap
ER

Films:
LOTR (all three)
Harry Potter
Titanic
Matrix (all three plus the animated ones)

Theres probably a lot more but its too early to think...

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

ANYHTING ON ITV ON SUNDAY NIGHT
BLOODY HEARTBEAT!!!!!!!!!CRAP
THE ROYAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SHIT
WORST OF ALL "WHERE THE F**KING HEART IS" SHEAR DROSS

Can't fault that. Eastenders makes me want to hurt myself

 

[ripper]

big Brother, frasier and many more

 

[METALMICKY]

Last of the Summer & Allo Allo!

About as funny as syphillis!

Film wise i think all the LOTR are seriously overated and the first two Marix films are just a triumph of style over any real substance.

 

[chips and gravy]

Saturday night TV is obviously a punishment by the TV companies for people staying in

 

[Soton Seagull]

TV-

Ab Fab - Not funny, it's annoying. There is a major difference.
Friends - Mae by Girls, for Girls. Fair enough, but I'm not one!
Only Fools and Horses - amusing at times, but have to agree with Easy 10 - f*ck knows how it got legendary status?


Films -

Chinatown - meant to be a classic, I thought it was pap.
Matrix reloaded - rubbish (the whole series thinks it is far cleverer than it is!)
Pearl Harbour - A smash a the box office, absolute crap.

Probably loads more, but my work phone just rang and put me of off rant mode!

 

[METALMICKY]

TV-

Pearl Harbour - A smash a the box office, absolute crap.

Huh! I think you'll find it bombed at the box office. Aside from a cheesy obvious love story it was also evident that US cinema goers didn't like to be so vidily reminded of how they were caught with their pants down at Pearl Harbour.

Shame on the previous poster who has never watched Blackadder

 

[shingle]

Blackadder = Total class

 

[Spicy]

I hated the Scary Movie films - I have watched all three thinking I must be missing something. Each time I went to the cinema, people were falling about but I didn't find the films at all funny.

 

[Chesney Christ]

Only Fools and Horses is massively overrated. Well written, well acted and generally pleasant viewing but where on earth is the humour? Del Boy saying "plonker" a few times and that "hilarious" falling over seen. Dear me.

 

[Chesney Christ]

I hated the Scary Movie films - I have watched all three thinking I must be missing something. Each time I went to the cinema, people were falling about but I didn't find the films at all funny.

Scary Movie is popular?! I f***ing hope not. Inexcusably bad films (only seen one but happily speaking for all three).

 

[Hilton]

Tv: The Office
Royale Family
Bo Selecta
Last of the Summer Wine
OFAH (not bad, just nowhere near as good as people make it seem)

to name but a few

Films: Harry Potter
Lord of the Rings
Matrix

Scrubbs is SHIT.
