So the other day I was scrolling through TV shows Netflix, and I came across Bob's Burgers. I had seen it advertised on Fox numerous times, so I decided I'd give it a shot. I figured it couldn't be that bad.

Well, I figured wrong. The entire time I was watching (I watched a couple episodes just to give it a fair diagnosis) I wondered how this horrendously awful show ever got aired in the first place.

What was even more surprising to me was that they released a second season. Are there really people watching this show? I don't understand what the appeal is. Is it supposed to be funny? Because if it is, I can honestly say I have never seen a show that has failed harder in the humor department.

There's my miniature rant for the day, so aside from that, I'm leaving you with this question here:

What do you think is the worst show on TV?

Can't claim to know the worst show on TV, as I don't force myself to sit through bad shows, but I've been made to watch a couple episodes of Family Guy and hated it.
What a pathetic, cheap excuse for animated comedy. It's just a parade of shallow and interchangeable pop culture references without thought or context, or even self-respect. Watching this show after an episode of Futurama would make me go physically sick from massive humor deficit.

And could you more blatantly rip off The Simpsons?

There is so much fail on tv I really couldn't single out just one. But to just name a few in no particular order.
Haunted Collector. This show pisses me off. It's basically just some guy using superstition and fear mongering to pretend to "help" people, when all he is really doing is stealing from them.
Ancient Aliens. The overall bias of the show is annoying as hell. It's not just from Giorgio, it's the whole **** thing.
Finding Bigfoot. Pretty much the same reason as Ancient Aliens.
Most of the absolutely lazy unfunny shows put on Cartoon network. It's no longer airing but if I were to single out one from the lot I would pick Tom Goes to the Mayor. I tend to view that show as the official point where CN really started to go down hill and suck.
Aquabats Supershow. That show is down right annoying and stupid.
Super Hero Squad Show. Kindergarden Marvel characters... Nuff said.

Though to be fair to CN there are line ups I have been enjoying. The new Thundercats cartoon, Green Lantern, Star Wars: Clone Wars (though I still find the character animation jarring), You Justice hasn't been that bad IMO.

Which episodes have you been watching? The past two or three seasons have been dirt, but watch something from the first 5 and you may have more of an appreciation for it.

Undercover Boss is another crappy show. It seems that's a new trend now for riches to be on TV to satisfy their huge ego. My GF likes it and I don't understand why.
It's always the same BS. The rich a$$hole pretends to be an employee
so he can see what's happening in the real world. Then comes the man who worked for 25 years and has a disease or one of his kid is very sick or poor, etc. Then the CEO pretends to feel sorry for them and starts giving them money, bla, bla, bla... as if they cared about anything else than making more money and putting their competitors out of work so they can charge higher fees for their sub par services.

On UnderCover boss... I like it, i just don't understand why the employees vent their life to a stranger they just met in front of a camera. Kinda ruins it for me.

Teen mom and 16 and pregnant are 2 of the dumbest shows in the history of television. My sisters watch it all the time and I think it's dumb that these girls and boys are being put on TV for being unsafe. It seems like a reward. And girls got pregnant on purpose just to be in the second season and thats why they are canceling it. THANK GOD

Dude that is almost the exact list of shows I was thinking of. I'm glad to know someone else sees how stupid those shows are too

Anything made by disney except one, it isn't a specific one just whatever one you see first. This is because every single one has the same lame jokes and the same stupid storyline. Also Switched at Birth and any of those other shows where they decided everything had to be super dramatic or where all the guys are stupid and the girls are the cool kids, unconditionally.

My vote for worst show on TV? Geez, I don't even know. I don't like very many TV shows.. I guess the one I've always hated the most is Survivor. Number one because it is/was so freaking popular I couldn't stand it.

Ja Ja Ja

I found that so funny I laughed in another language

In my opinion the worst show ever produced is "Red Eye" because of this: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9tf0-BIyU0]
