Disappointments of the Year (TV):

 

Again taste is subjective; i'm sure there's a lot of actual garbage TV out there but i can't get around them bc there's like 500 shows getting produced yearly. Anyway, what's worse for me may be good for you and that's ok!

 

 

 

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (S2) - Netflix

HswXB2W9h5ESK3Cf27wXkm-480-80.jpg

 

Show has completely gone off the rails; quickly turning into your average teenage Netflix soap drama with "supernatural" elements. What a waste of Shipka's talent

 

 

 

Barry (S2) - HBO

I don't have much to say abt this one except that i absolutely f*cking hate this show and its protagonist. That fifth episode was a tryhard stunt that even the edgiest TV heads fell for it for some reason.

 

 

 

Dead To Me (S1) - Netflix

139b1a8ac97ab9592e1cb6b725f1b217061dcc18.jpg?mw=600

 

The corny Girl Power'd ending ruined this for me but yeah great performances, beautiful performances...

 

 

 

Veep (S7) - HBO

JLD lost her emmy and WE ARE HAPPY!!

Brooklyn Nine-Nine (S6) - NBC

Maybe the twitter campaign was a mistake lol

 

 

 

Killing Eve (S2) - BBC America

17249995-low_res-killing-eve-s2-e1556803417120-1440x763.jpg

 

RIP Villanelle's cool factor (S01E01 - S01E05)

 

 

 

The Bold Type (S3) - Freeform

e8008ec6-ed18-441d-8bf4-f1ae6e010a8d.jpg

 

Inserting the New Yorker Cat Person story into a meaningless plot A YEAR LATER after we've all suffered though the whole discourse online was a clear signal that this show is very out of touch... Also, i can't tolerate its empty lib fem (Freeform™ approved) politics anymore sorry!!!

 

 

 

The Society (S1) – Netflix

TELEMMGLPICT000195278725_trans_NvBQzQNjv

 

Interesting concept ruined by bad actors and ****ty romantics plotlines

 

 

 

Stranger Things (S3) – Netflix

960x0.jpg?fit=scale

 

A remix of its previous seasons with Russians as the evil guys. okay stuff!

 

 

 

Elite (S2) - Netflix

elite-s2-ep01.jpg?w=1000&h=563&crop=1

 

Like Stranger Things, it's basically a remix of its previous season. I feel like i would appreciate this show more if the kids were college or something? Like why is this set in high school?? We don't even get to see them worried about their tests or their grades, except for like 2 scenes and they were treated as an excuse to get the characters involved in some romantic or sexual storyline(?). Anyway if you want edgy and hot, watch Euphoria instead!

 

 

 

And the worst show of the year is....

 

Spoiler

 

The Other Two (S1) - Comedy Central

the-other-two-590x313.png

 

I guess the only funny part about this show is the last segment where the creators of the show talk to their actors abt the episodes as if there's something interesting to dissect abt some "youtube red" quality type **** (even that feels unfair to youtube considering the shows they produced recently)

 

I feel like the biggest offense about this show is thinking that giving your characters a sense of sarcasm somewhat makes them interesting... it really doesn't. There's only one person who's capable of doing that and her name is Lena Dunham that's IT!! The show can't figure out if they want to make the two siblings cool or offensive or quirky goofy nice... it's all a giant mess :pukey: The sister with the valley girl act is very one dimensional and annoying. The gay brother is somewhat interesting but he's just there, commenting on whatever that's in front of him with that smug face of his :mazen: 

 

Obviously the folks who made made this show are clearly out of touch. They have no knowledge of youth culture (i guess their only reference is watching a Jacob Sartorius music video from 4 years ago?) or any meaningful critique of Hollywood like critics claim. The pop culture references are dated. Seriously this is NOT a funny show at all.

 

One final thing: The "My borther is gay" song is so ****ing dumb. Get taste people :fish2:

wtf The Other Two is like my fav new show this year, I think it’s hysterical :dies: and I personally thought this was Stranger Things’s best season so far

I quit Bold Type halfway through season 2 (after that godawfully cringey ‘white privilege’ episode), so I’m assuming it only got worse from there. I got so sick of its “let’s see what SJWs are mad about this year and make it a plot point” stories :biblio:

What infuriated me more abt The Other Two is folks claiming how better it is than "Difficult People" which is absolute blasphemy imo... I just don't get what's so exceptional abt this show? Like i said b4, the only time it was remotely edgy is when they made the now tasteless Britney joke lol

 

As for Stranger Things, i get why it was entertaining for some, but for me it was mostly a "been there, done that" with no added value.

 

And you were right abt TBT! Recycling old social talking points without any hard hitting resolutions is a waste of time. Even if i quite enjoyed that white privilege ep lol

I was kinda mixed abt it! The good parts were really good, as for the bad moments well....

Nn i for one enjoyed Killing Eve, but yes Phoebe was surely missed and a welcome re-addition to next season.

I agree with your picks, I'd probably put Veep as the worst tho out of what I've seen here.

I really liked some of these disappointments :'( 

The Other Two can't be the worst show when they gave us this:
