What shows do you love to HATE!!!!

[Tarrasque Wrangler]

American Idol promotes everything about the music industry that I HATE. Simon Cowell is not funny. Paula Abdul didn't have any musical talent 15 years ago and should be the last person telling anyone that they don't either. That other guy is just a waste of space. Somewhere in America, a band with talent can't get signed while some goober singing Barry Manilow covers on Fox gets a huge contract.

Crossfire, because Tucker Carlson is the Antichrist in a bowtie.

Any nature show where some guy pokes a snake or crocodile or something. Steve Irwin can KISS IT.

Everybody Loves Raymond somehow manages to be both painfully mundane AND irritating at the same time. This is America's favorite comedy?

Dragonball (of any variety). Wow, I really don't understand the attraction to these shows. Every episode I've been forced to watch has been so mind-numbingly dull. The animation is terrible, the voices are terrible, the action is terrible. If I see one more scene of people standing around slack-jawed, while their stupid inner monologue plays on the soundtrack ("He just blew up that planet! He's so powerful!"), I will commence to feces-hurling.

*draws breath* Oh. Nevermind.

Well, you did ask

Any of the "comedy" shows on Adult Swim.

Hmmm.....This may take a while.....

-Almost all reality shows. I'll watch Fear Factor, and the beginning of American idol, but as soon as the auditions are over, I'm out. And if Who's line is it anyway counts as a reality show, I love that one too.
-Nip/Tuck. But I'm sure many of you already knew that.
-Powerpuff Girls. Evil. Pure and simple.
-M*A*S*H. Actually, I'm really not a war show person. They really don't do it for me.
-All of the shows that aren't anime on Adult Swim.
-Soap Operas of ANY kind.
-Any game shows.
-Any talk shows
-All sports except Baseball, and only if my team is playing.
-Sex and the City. Man do I hate this show.
....I am sure that I am forgetting many more.

I don't like reality television, but I don't automatically turn it off. I miss it mostly because I watch very little television these days.

However, a real list:

Alias. I don't know about the U.S., but here in Australia it's promoted as a "sexy thriller", and I think you'd need a woman and not a pre-op transsexual in your lead role for that to really fly with me.

Farscape. Just plain rubbish, as far as I'm concerned - one of the most boring universes and set of characters I've ever seen created for science fiction.

Babylon 5. Almost all of the above objections to Farscape apply here, but this show has even worse character design. It's lucky I've never heard a Babylon 5 fan complain about Star Trek makeup in my hearing, considering that stupid hairstyle race.

Absolutely Fabulous. I nearly fly into rages when confronted with this limping gutshot excuse for comedy.

Any kind of anime.

Any kind of anime.

I'm a huge fan of anime, (which most of you probably already know) so I was just curious why you don't like any of it?
