What wildly popular show did/do you dislike?

Only Murders in the Building

I thought it would be funnier, and the language is really over the top and unnecessary.

I actually think most people hate Big Bang Theory.

I hated it but I liked Young Sheldon. Go figure.

Because you hated it? The show ran for 12 seasons and was No. 1 in its 11th season. It launched Young Sheldon and a sequel. There is also another spinoff in the works.

Big bang theory is just a really well done classic sitcom. It’s not creative or Shakespeare or anything but it has lovable quirky personalities, some character growth/arc over the seasons, a straight man playing to “characters,” and good quippy dialogue. That’s the formula. Also the Bob Newhart ongoing cameo was one of the funniest things I’ve seen on TV. He was so, so funny in that role. There were some other really good cameos as well.

+1. Christine Baranski as Leonard's critical neuroscientist mother was comic gold!

Yellowstone. Pure drivel and the Beth character made it unwatchable.

YES! Absolutely and even agree with your Beth character assessment. I stopped before the second episode ended b/c her acting was so bad.

Oh, yes! I also disliked this one!

Friends. I watched Living Single all the time with my roommate in college. When Friends started I was like this has been done (and much better).

Neither was better than Three's Company.

The graphic clearly shows that it's about smart people and for dumb people sooooo... the person who liked it and feels she is in great company can just self-select into the right group I guess.

Mad Men. I tried to like it but the guys were such dirtbags to their wives, after awhile it just got monotonous.

I couldn’t get past the constant smoking.

Agree with everyone who said Mad Men. Unwatchable.

Glee (way too campy)
Ozark (dumb premise and no momentum)
Euphoria (watched like 20 mins; the showrunner is a perv who hates women, in my opinion)
The Wire (couldn’t get past the first 10 mins)

Saw all of Breaking Bad and enjoyed it but agree it was overrated.

Loved Mad Men and The Americans
