Acclaimed Series You Can't Take To

[VladimirIlyich]

Just thought i would see which of the acclaimed series you cant get interested in at all.

Ive said before that i dont watch any of those zombie/vampire things so they dont count for me.

I just cant get into Mad Men at all and Ive got bored of Community and Parks and Recreation too.

[Garrincha]

Shameless

[Kevin D]

Band of Brothers.

[Garrincha]

The American Office

[RedKnight]

Battlestar Galatica.

[Trumo]

Games Of Thrones. I've not read the books and I've only seen glimpses of the show, but despite many people banging on about how good it is, I just cannot be arsed with it.

[Whelan]

The Shield - just can't take to it.

[VladimirIlyich]

The Shield - just can't take to it.

 

Ive never got round to watching this but dont think i would like it.

Shameless is another one but it just looks like a glorified soap opera to me.

[sh#t waffle]

Mad Men for me too. Parks and Recreation took ages to click, but now I bloody love it.

[Jim MM]

Anything that starts with the letters C,S and I just makes me imagine Lt.Columbo spinning in his grave.

Seinfeld

[setreal]

Every sitcom/comedy series there is. After like five episodes it's just the same stuff (jokes) again and again for me. (The exception being seasons 3-8 of Simpsons of course)

 

Walking Dead - B-movie style show, horrible.

Lost - flashback driven nonsense

Dexter - gave up after Episode 2 . predictable as hell

Game of Thrones - watched Season 1 - meh (middle-age fantasy setting is not for me)

Heroes - promising concept but just awful characters and writing

Heroes makes me spit blood every time I see it mentioned or it is discussed. The first season was great, then they had that writers strike and then it was downhill all the way to hell from there.

All of them. Life is too short to watch 8 series of The Wire.

 

I did like Band of Brothers, though.

This. it seems as though a new series is out everyday and there's just not enough hours in the day to watch them, so why bother.

Good thing there are only 5 then.

[stringvest]

Agree with TK. Life's too short to be stuck in front of a TV for hours a day. Especially my life, before anyone says it.

[Pureblood]

Good thing there are only 5 then.

 

You know what I mean, though. It's a big commitment.

[Guest The Big Green Bastard]

Just look at all this shit, bubblegum for the brain.

Just give me a good feature length movie about crocodiles eating people and I'm happy.

[Captain Turdseye]

Dexter. Watched the first episode and had no desire to continue.

 

I liked Heroes but stopped after the first series after being told on here that the rest were shite. I trust the GF's judgement because it's here I learned of The Wire, Sopranos and Breaking Bad.

[Fowlers God]

Breaking bad- half way through 4eason two and stopped watching last year.

 

I've always thought to continue but there has been other stuff to watch.

 

On reccomendation from the GF though I got season 1 of the Sheild last wee for a fiver. Mrs is a way in two weeks so I will plod my way through that then!

[Pony Princess]

Walking Dead. Dull, uninteresting characters that worked well in the graphic novel but failed on the screen. Too many liberties taken with the story. Egg from This Life is shite as an American cop.

[Champ]

All of them. Life is too short to watch 8 series of The Wire.

I see lifey viewing. You're gonna get negged!

[Remmie]

Another vote for Mad Men. Pretty boring smoking advert.
