Run for your lives!Is MTV ever going to go back to actually playing videos? Whymust they continue to air these bratty, too-wealthy-for-their-own-good-moronsshows like The Hills. Now with "goody two-shoes" Lauren moving on (which isabout time as she needed to get off her high horse), Kristin the "bee-yatch" isback and is the main character. Like, no way! Ugh, seriously – get actual real jobs you

How is it that shows like Samantha Who and Arrested Development get canceled, yet Gary Unmarried is able to remain on the television for not one, but two increasingly painfull seasons? This show is basically about a divorced couple sharing custody of their two children. The acting is terrible, the writing is even worse and each time the kids are a scene I want to blow my brains out. The son is

I don't understand this terrible drivel of shows that keep popping up! Recently, I sat down to watch Comedy Central's new series, "Secret Girlfriend" and was not amused. It's basically a series of short clips of women, friends, and assorted toadies talking directly into the camera implying you, the viewer, are the main character. If these were what my friends looked like, I'd hate to see what

Ok, so I am a fan of The Office and it is typically a show that I would say does not suck, however the last episode of the marriage of Jim and Pam gave the word “suck” new meaning.It's only been, like, five long seasons to finally get to this point and where do they go? Niagara Falls? Kentucky Derby? McDonalds?! Ok, so this isn’t really about the location, although maybe NBC should have looked

Sorry I've spent so much time away from my holy mission to expose the crappiest tv shows on earth. What has brought me out of my forced hibernation was an experience so bad, suckage so blantant, that I didn't even know what show I was actually watching.I thought I was watching CBS's "The Unit." Aside from the phallic overtures the title makes, it seemed pretty much your standard CBS crap

I think it is pretty well-covered territory by now that the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric is the lowest rated evening news broadcast in the history of television (not an exageration, Nielson confirmed no one has ever been lower in the 20 years since the ratings were invented).What really galls me is that the morons over at CBS had the nerve to state that it isn't Katie's or CBS's fault the

Okay so lemme get this straight...You take two brits, veterans of dancing shows in England, both very successful choreographers, make them judges, add an American judge who happens to be an attractive female with such vast choreographic credentials as the American Idol Christmas special and Who Wants to be a Millionaire, and then create yet another sucky American-ized version of yet another

It was bad enough that CSI was a sad, pathetic imitation of Law and Order. I could forgive them for replacing meaningful dialog with short montages and all-too active camera work while succeeding in having dialog only fit for 4-year-olds. I could forgive the mindless and altogether drama-less writing.What I can't forgive, what I absolutely can't forgive, is some brainless nitwit who isn't fit to

I am beside myself with grief today.Not only am I about to give NBC kudos, but I am also going to give a thumbs up to a show that I desperately wanted to say sucked. After 11 episodes, I am still watching it, and I am still enjoying it.I hate that.First off, kudos to NBC for finally wising up and putting full episodes online...congratulations, you have just caught up to where the rest of us were

I think the entire world has pretty much given up on finding music videos on MTV. That is probably why there are several different MTV channels now...as they fill up each one with lame-ass TV shows, they have to move the music somewhere...and that always appears to be the one new MTV channel that my cable company or dish provider hasn't added yet. So I watch TUBE. It is all music videos, all the

I don't normally like doing this, because it goes against the basic idea of this blog, which is to point out tv shows that suck. However, a reader has repeatedly asked me to list the shows that I currently don't think suck so as to give you, the readers, a more complete perspective on my opinions.I don't pretend to be some kind of knowledgable critic, journalist, or even a decent writer.

Bill Maher started out as a comedian. The fact that he was one of the least funny comedians in America set him on the path to having two of the crappiest shows on television today. The first time I saw Bill Maher do standup on television, I decided to clean my toilets instead. The toilet brush was funnier than Bill Maher.Last week's episode of Real Slime with Bill Maher featured a typical panel

Let's get a bunch of aging hollywood actors, throw in some young unknowns, and then get a crew of hack writers to cobble together plots based on Washington Post headlines and set it all in space.Hey, it worked for Star Trek. Let's hijack a franchise that sucked, but was a bastion of tasteless sexism, and flip it all around to boot!Stir it all up in a pot and air it on the SciFi channel and what

You have three aging hags that managed to earn their leftist crenditials through decades of intellectually devoid and dishonest right-bashing who couldn't carry their own show if it was Romper Room. You have a gap in your always-running-in-third morning schedule. What do you do? What do you do?You put all three of them on one show and make it all about their callow, mindless, infantile ramblings

Alas, it is true. Half of the most successful American TV shows are copies of British TV shows. Proof positive that America isn't the only country that exports its crap.The worst offender in this crap-across-the-ocean trading? American Idol. Give me The Gong Show anyday, because basically thats what this zit-festooned, fetid, intellectually devoid, pathetic show is actually a sad copy of - sans

The Oscars suck. Basically, here is what the Oscars represent:Hollywood gets together in a theater and pats itself on the back for doing so well by giving awards to itself voted on by itself.Who do you think the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences is? It is the same bunch of people sitting in the audience clapping as members of the Academy run up and accept awards they were nominated for

For 18 years prime-time television has been infected with Matt Groenig's humourless commentary on life as seen by a talentless left-leaning hack. From his humble beginnings making no one laugh with his comic strip Life in Hell to the punishment inflicted on American viewers every week in the form of the Simpsons, Groening has taught us that you don't have to be humorous to stay on tv, you just

I want the 10 minutes of my life back I wasted watching Housewives on Bravo this week. I want to be reimbursed for the sfogliatelle I bazooka barfed all over my Berklines when this steaming heap of crap was beamed into my fortress of solitude, my temple of relaxation, otherwise known as my Buckeye home theater.Some trophy-wife looking bimbette was getting all dolled-up, boobs pushed to her chin,

Welcome to the Shows that Suck page. Our un-ending mission is to point out the mindless garbage and drivel that gets pumped out every night onto our TVs without the slightest measure of quality.It never ceases to amaze me the shear volume of shows that suck. What kind of soulless morons exist within our television industry that even when our best shows are stolen ideas from other countries,
