"Married...With Children "-I get it that most family sitcoms were kind of syrupy sweet, but the Bundys would have had me slitting my wrists in real life after an hour. The audience always screaming didn't help matters any. I was also not too fond of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air". Not too fond of the The Fresh Prince of Bel Air? Racist. |

The first season of the Wire was fantastic. In fact, all of the seasons were sans season 5. Game of Thrones seems to be a popular answer too. You guys are nuts. Both are two of the top five shows ever made.

The Wire, Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones. You seriously name the three greatest shows ever made. Hilarious. |

Seinfeld. It's mildly amusing at times, but it's reputation as the greatest sitcom of all time is a mystery to me.

The audience always screaming didn't help matters any. I was also not too fond of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air". In real life I wouldn't like the Bundys either. In real life I would much rather belong to a family like the Tanners in Full House than the Bundys, but that doesn't change the fact that Married...With Children was a much funnier show than Full House. Their character flaws made them enjoyable, and I thought the overzealous crowd was a nice touch. |

The Wire. First of all, if you don't consider it the greatest show ever made, it's automatically overrated because so many do. On top of that, when the show is good, it's really good, but you still have two bad seasons out of five to contend with. I also found Stranger Things way overhyped. Okay, two brothers stuck everything they liked from their childhood in a blender. So? Nothing new came out, just mushed up versions of ET and Stephen King. I disliked 2 on the first viewing but it grew on me a lot on my rewatch last year. The Wire definitely has ups and downs but overall I found it some of the best tv I've ever seen. I agree the last season was very meh. |

Stranger Things
American Horror Story ( If not for their disappointing season finales, I actually kinda enjoy this show)
Arrested Development (painfully boring show with stupid characters parading around making a fool outta themselves)
The Magicians (cheap rip off of Harry Potter)
Jessica Jones
Gossip Girl (nothing to see here, move along...just spoiled rich brats bitching about their messed up relationships)
True Detective (zzz...huh....did someone say something?...I dozed off halfway though)

How highly rated is Jessica Jones?
I enjoyed it, but not as much as Daredevil...and definitely not as much as some of the 'greatest shows of all time'. Unless you found it completely unwatchable.

Jessica Jones is a really boring snoozefest. Watching paint dry is more entertaining than watching an episode of Jessica Jones. |

Can you believe all those people claiming that Kilgrave is the best villain in MCU? He was nothing but a lazy inversed version of a hero with mind control abilities. |

Homeland- the first season was ok, 2 and 3 were garbage.

I disliked 2 on the first viewing but it grew on me a lot on my rewatch last year. The Wire definitely has ups and downs but overall I found it some of the best tv I've ever seen. I agree the last season was very meh. I entirely agree, on first viewing I thought season 2 was the weakest. However on re-watching I enjoyed it so much better and everything seemed to tie in with it. Season 5 was definitely the weakest, although still with some fantastic moments and a great finale. I can understand why people don't like The Wire or can't get into it, but to me its still the best show ever made. I also agree with whoever said Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones were overrated. I like them both well enough, but the way people gush and wax lyrical over them is just mind-boggling to me. Obviously I appear to be in a vast minority with that opinion haha. But give me Better Call Saul any day. |

Breaking Bad It's well-shot, well acted, and they do righteously adhere to the set design aesthetic they were going for, but it's full of so many contrivances and convenient plot developments that it's kind of hard to take seriously the way people claim it should be.
Better Call Saul is actually much better imo.I can't with this. |

Game of Thrones. Sibling sex and dragons and all of a sudden it's the greatest show on TV? Please. Yeah because that's all the show is about. That is all the shows about. Take out the sex and blood and you lose 90% of the show's audience. These people aren't fantasy fans, they are only watching for the shock value. |

Oh, I don't think it's overrated (or at least for the most part), it's just that I hate the fan-pleasing Stark family crap that has been going on recently. And I don't think its gonna get any better in season 7 either...not with Jon Snow going down on his aunt. *blegh* |
