Title: Horrible shows...
Post by: Sapphire Knight on January 15, 2010, 07:19:16 AM
Okay, to put it bluntly, this is a thread for posting shows you downright HATE and think would be better off having not been made in the first place.

This is just opinionary, so I'm not responsible if this sparks arguements. And I apologize if it is deemed by the higher ups to be my fault, and if I shouldn't have posted this.

Anyway, to start the ball rolling, shows I think shouldn't have been made include:

-Spongebob Squarepants
-Marvellous Misadventures of Flapjack (I don't give a [tornado fang] if I didn't spell that right)
-Chowder
-American Dad
-Fanboy and Chum Chum
-Suite Life on Deck

Take note that only one of those isn't animated.

Damn straight.
Personally, while I dont really like AD, I dont mind it either. Im indifferent to it really.
but Spongebob...
Ironically, I liked Coconut Fred alot.

American Idol.

The only good part of the show is the auditions at the beginning. After that it's boring as hell.

I actually think Spongebob Squarepants is okay, and Family Guy is funny. American Dad's ok,it's not the best Animated comedy in my book.

But can you really blame any of the shows on Cartoon Network/Disney/Nickelodeon? Their target audience is Kids/Young Teenagers.

And yea, Reality TV is about as real as Hollywood movies.

You missed the crossover gags then (Homer getting mowed down by Stewie, Quagmire getting his jiggy on Marge, etc). :p

I have no problem with Family Guy, and might be a few others, but I can't stand HANNAH MONTANA and Disney overall. Plus Nick's iCarly (ATHF I'm starting to find decent, because of a sprite comic that I read once that uses and twists thier gags a little). I don't even watch TV anymore so why am I posting in this topic? who knows. TV has been REALLY boring for me lately. :P

[tornado fang] yeah Phineas & Ferb. XD

I remember actually knocking it for a while because of how similar it looked to other animation out now, but watching that show, I noticed that it's a damn goldmine.. As for this topic, well, I don't really watch much TV lately, but thanks to the OP posting Fanboy & Chumchum, I remembered that I hated it with a passion. It's everything I didn't want to see happen to 3D animation and everything wrong with cartoons after the 90s wrapped into one.

Post by: Smiley Emo on January 16, 2010, 06:43:11 AM
The last 11 years or so of the Simpsons are just horrible. I don't know why I still watch.

Jay Leno has never been funny. The Jay Leno show not only was horrible television, it is now causing the end of Conan's show, which is one of my favorites.

er chance, Season 1 kind of sucks, but after that it found it's groove and is now among the most consistently funny shows on television. The Christmas special last month was one of the best things that have ever happened.
Title: Re: Horrible shows...
Post by: Flame on January 16, 2010, 06:47:29 AM
I prefer Letterman Myself.
And I agree, Leno really isnt that funny. He's really lost his touch. He used to be funnier.

Possible summary in Soap Operas in 5 seconds:

Shaolin showdown had a good concept, and wasnt a bad idea. what was bad, was that- and everyone knew it- it was one of those shows that would NEVER end. there would ALWAYS be another shen gong wu. Meh. at least it had it's fair twists and turns to keep it from being TOO monotonous.
if it actually had an ending (that doesnt occur after god knows how many seasons) it might have been better.
Title: Re: Horrible shows...
Post by: Solar on January 19, 2010, 06:11:13 AM
Yeah, I really liked that show too, I think it ended at an OK point actually. Sure, an actual conclusion wouldn't have hurt though.
Title: Re: Horrible shows...
Post by: Gaia on January 20, 2010, 02:56:48 AM
I for one remember it's actual spelling: Xiaolin Showdown. Yeah, nice concept.. but the show would've ended RIGHT at the resealing.. which was a reminder how much I hate shows that drag on and on and on ('cept the Simpsons, because of it's moments)..

And pretty much shows that reuse the concept after it's initial washaway.. and Video Game adaptions gone wrong, RS Megaman and LOZ: TAS anyone?  8D

Though the epitome of LAZY ANIMATION has to be nominated for 6teen.. jeeeeebusssss.. That show is basically the real Blue Harvest: Horror beyond your imagination.. And it's plot -was- so boring I had to pull an M. Bison on it.
Title: Re: Horrible shows...
Post by: Irgendein on January 20, 2010, 03:04:44 AM
You guys get 6Teen and Total Drama Island/Action as well? Oh jeez.. I should at least hope they don't over-advertise it on the channel like Teletoon.

...speaking of Canadian shows, another that comes to mind is Team Galaxy. It lasted about a week in the States, if I recall.

There was NO Time Force movie. There was only MMPR movie and TURBO movie. The first one was good because IVAN [tornado fang]ing OOZE! The second was pretty meh and boring.

Time Force in itself was [tornado fang]ing great. I loved it. Even more so Sentai Timeranger. Dino Thunder was good too.

Also, the season after that shitty Turbo one, "Power Rangers in Space" was [tornado fang]ing awesome. Since it had first real development in the story, characters and it had some darker elements(like those flashback scenes where Darkonda kidnapped red rangers lil' sis. Or that Astronema, main villain, turned out to be her.)

It's like, in the American show you've got people shouting, insulting and beating each other and stuff, and in the French version, they're just remaining sitting with their rafined accent saying stuff like "oh how could you? Sleeping with my husband, it's dégueulasse"

If we are talking about the [parasitic bomb] that they air on TV in our native countries, I'll talk a bit about polish "comedies" or SITCOMS.

Let's talk about "Świat Według Kiepskich.", which takes its title from the polish translation of "The Life With Bundy"(which was [tornado fang]ing AWESOME).
Anyway, so it's about a guy named Ferdynand Kiepski, who is an upstanding citizen of modern Polish society... except not really, because he's a drunkard who drinks vodka and beer all day, while watching TV. He has two children. One is a typical rebellious girl, the other one is a complete moron with bald head who likes to do what his father does.
There's also the only reasonable person on this show, which is Ferdynand's wife Halina.

And so, they do such interesting [parasitic bomb] on this show, like turning aliens into alcoholics. Turning robots into alocholics. Trying to find a easy way ot make money(which usually backfires on them), and drinking beer and vodka.

Yes, it's just as shitty as it sounds.

I used to not mind Naruto. I never LIKED it per se- but it was interesting to read. Then it became so mainstream and over popularized, (and God damn the Narutards...) That now I cant stand it. It makes me sick.
I like it more when it was newer, but now it's sort of a "guilty pleasure", as I only watch the subbed ones now.  The whole mainstream thing annoys me, though, and the American censorship is ridiculous.  What killed the dubs for me was the whole change of "Drunken Fist" to "Loopy Fist"; that's just plain sloppy.

Very CN Real show on Cartoon Network. They are un-original and they can suck major -- Burn Rooster! -- for all I care. I mean look at The Othersiders, does it look like a certain show on the Sy-fy Channel to any of you...? -AC

More TV shows that I hate are anything dubbed by 4Kids, like their dubbing of One Piece. They completely ruined that show... T_T

I hate American TV as a whole. Sure I watch BBC America but its better than anything I see on TV.
Top Gear~

I wish I could get into Top Gear because I keep hearing how awesome it is on This is Not an Anime Podcast, even though I'm not into cars, but sadly I don't have BBC on my satellite subscription... ;^;

I remember watching an episode of Top Gear in English class once (the teacher literally was English). In the episode we watched, they had to drive three old run-down cars through a desert and other parts of Africa. If any of their cars broke down (which they did), and couldn't be fixed, they'd have to drive a Beetle for the rest of the competition. It was pretty funny.

Seriously you don't have to be into cars.
I actually learn things about cars, like the Mustang Shelby GT 500 is close, but not even 500 horsepower.

Oh god that reminds me of James May's hate of Volkswagon lol

Really, do you think that would have passed the CN censors? I don't think adults would have like seeing their children seeing a form of alcohol on an anime for younger viewers. Besides, Naruto fared off better than most stuff. Compare VIZ Media's dub of it to 4Kids' dub of One Piece. Hell, the latter's dub of Shaman King was better than dub of One Piece.

And not all of 4Kids dubs suck. I heard great stuff about their dubs of Ultimate Muscle, Dinosaur King, and Huntik: Seekers and Secrets. Even Smesiriki(GoGoRiki), despite bowderlization.


4Kids Entertainment is dying anyway. Why bother bashing?

Proof 4Kids is dying: Not even Yugioh can save it. In fact, they removed 5D's from the lineup. (good riddance)
Also I liked the original Yugioh's dub. I thought it was alright. I didnt particularly care for the eeeey brooklyn! Joey, but it worked out.

More stuff of American TV that I absolute can't stand, namely certain shows on Cartoon Network...

Bakugan: Battle Brawlers
I personally find the anime series as a big Yu-Gi-Oh! wannabe like Duel Masters, especially in the second season.

Hot Wheels Battle Force 5
Why?

Pokemon DP anime series
I may get flamed by Pokemon anime fans for this, but the animes is redundant for a LONG time now, and I'm getting sick of seeing Team Rocket attempt to steal Ash's Pikachu for over 10 years now... (http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=260) These two should kill themselves because the world doesn't need people who are stupid as them.

Johnny Test
Lame, over-used catchphrases like "I didn't that one coming," cheezy jokes and lame parodies of other great stuff like Scooby-Doo and Star Wars just sickens me... Also, the mole people are portrayed as male homosexual stereotypes (The Village People) in their appearance.

Casper's Scare School (TV series)
Why?

Chop Socky Chooks
Asian stereotypes plus f'ugly "chicken" designs and lame jokes.

George of the Jungle (2008)
Why?

MTV reality shows.
It sucks. Period. I miss the good old days of Beavis and Butt-head.

Reality shows in general
Really, I don't care about this person is cheating on someone or this person has the ability to speak to the dead. It all sucks equally.

Err.. this anime series is dubbed.  (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CERi--Ifheo)

And yeah, it does have ups and downs too.

And that's why I keep saying that they should just end it already and animate Pokemon Special.

Was there really a need to bump this? You didn't explain why you didn't like those shows. Lists are annoying, nobody likes them without people explaining why.

Anyway:

I think the only show that is on right now that I really don't care for is Johnny Test, the god damn thing has been run into the ground with 10+ hours of it on the CN schedule. Plus Johnny is in all respects, a character with no redeeming values, he is just a selfish snobbish brat and eveything that happens in the show is more or less his fault.
