OT: Popular TV Shows you never watched.

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

I will start.

1) Friends. Don't know why, never even tried. I mean trust me, I like looking at Jennifer Anniston as much as anyone, and Courtney Cox isn't too bad herself. But never, ever was interested enough to sit down and watch an episode let alone make it a habit. Either when it was on, or reruns.

2) Big Bang Theory. Again, see above. I mean Kaley Cuoco is certainly not hard to look at (though that Johnny forget his last name is one ugly dude).....but just never even gave it a chance to get into. Same with the spin off Sheldon. Whatever.

There ya go.

 

[Sean Miller Fan]

You have to watch Friends. I watched it during its run and it was great. Its reruns are still one of the most watched shows. I put on a couple a few weeks ago and they still hold up. Great TV.

For me, its Breaking Bad. Its on my list to watch but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

 

[Panther Holla]

Friends. Seinfeld. Breaking Bad. Game of Thrones. Lost. Survivor. Any reality TV.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

All reality TV ..... I have my own reality!

 

[Teh Teh]

Friends. Seinfeld. Breaking Bad. Game of Thrones. Lost. Survivor. Any reality TV.

Breaking Bad and Better call Saul are 2 of the best written shows ever.

I never seen Game of Thrones, South Park, any reality TV also, Dexter (everyone says this was good), Homeland, and a zillion others Im sure.

95% of the all the mature audience cartoon stuff; just can't get into them.

Big Bang Theory
Modern Family
Arrested Development

 

[DT_PITT]

Friends. Seinfeld. Breaking Bad. Game of Thrones. Lost. Survivor. Any reality TV.

I thought I was the only person in the country who has not seen a single episode of Game of Thrones.

I've watched about a total of 10 minutes of each of these and thought they were the biggest wastes of time imaginable.

Don't go by my opinion, though. Other than Homeland or Billions on Sunday nights I don't watch TV series, so I really don't know what's good or bad. I've never seen any of most of the shows mentioned. I did watch season 1 and 3 of True Detective. I either watch sports or read most of the time.

 

[rockypanther]

Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Mad Men, Sopranos, couldn't get into House of Cards

What do you like about Billions?

Oh,........great call on Breaking Bad. I knew there was one other really big one. I keep on meaning to binge, and I am sure I will, just haven't made the plunge yet.

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

Whoops. That's another one. Just not my cup of tea.

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

What do you like about Billions?

I like the characters.....anything with Paul Giamatti and Damien Lewis is usually great. Great actors. It is fun, guilty pleasure.

 

[JS School]

What do you like about Billions?

Mostly that it was on after Homeland, and now it is replacing it. It's fairly interesting though.

 

[JS School]

There is at least two of us.

 

[PharMorNightStocker]

Pretty much every famous show except for Seinfeld and the Big Bang Theory. It's just really hard for me to get into shows. I guess I've had small runs with other shows, but those are the two I've watched the most. Seinfeld is the only show I actually watched in a non-syndicated form consistently.

If you want to run through a brick wall, watch about 90 seconds of Fuller House. The level of complete and utter PC cheesiness is absolutely maddening. I have no idea where this is coming from other than the fact that I wanted to see what it was all about... absolutely infuriating. I've always thought Friends was cheesier than Chester the Cheetah's umm... elbow, but this makes Friends look like The Godfather.

I'll be finishing up The Wire in a few days. Then I'll be watching Breaking Bad if I can find it. Don't know if On Demand has it but I think Netflix does. Am watching the current run of Better Call Saul and I love it.

Big Bang theory is arguably the least funny show on tv

Never watch Walking Dead, sons of anarchy , and I’m sure plenty I can’t remember

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

95% of the all the mature audience cartoon stuff; just can't get into them.

Big Bang Theory
Modern Family
Arrested Development

Do yourself and watch seasons 1-3 of arrested development if you have Netflix

I can watch it repeatively because there are so many little jokes and references which build on itself - it’s remains funny

 

[pittjas]

Whoops. That's another one. Just not my cup of tea.

That’s what I thought too... even for the first couple episodes. Then I was hooked.

 

[Zeldas Open Roof]

1. Friends. I hated it but started watching it recently and like it.
   
   
2. Office. Same thing. Started streaming it recently and love it now.
   
3. Deadwood, I think I’d like it too but never got into it.
   
4. GOT. Same thing, missed the window and never found the time to get into it. Plus I don’t have hbo.

Walking Dead is another. Jesus.....I suck at popular TV.

I do admit about a year or so ago, I binge watched SOA and thought it was really good.

Yeah, this is/was my favorite show.

Breaking Bad, The League, 30 Rock, Scrubs at the beginning, Arrested Development, Sherlock, Ray Donovan, Im sure there are more Id watch all of these again

Never seen Game of Thrones, Madmen, This is Us, Lost


By the way, just watched Hunters, wouldnt say it would make this list, but it was good.

 

[Zeldas Open Roof]

I never got into the league either and again, I think I’d really like it.

 

[ratking17]

This thread pisses me off more than the politics locker room threads. I need to remove myself before I say something I would regret.

Some of you need serious help

 

[pitt-girl]

There is at least two of us.

Three of us.

 

[Pitt79]

Game of Thrones, anything that came from CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox in the last 25 years.

 

[Pitt79]

Oh,........great call on Breaking Bad. I knew there was one other really big one. I keep on meaning to binge, and I am sure I will, just haven't made the plunge yet.

Watch Better Call Saul first, see the whole story in the right order.

I never got into the league either and again, I think I’d really like it.

The league was funny for 1-2 seasons

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

How the he’ll can you live in America and never watched Seinfeld ?

 

[upj87]

I thought I was the only person in the country who has not seen a single episode of Game of Thrones.

I may be the only person to watch one episode and say it is really not that good...

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

I may be the only person to watch one episode and say it is really not that good...

It’s a building story
Took me awhile to get into it.
Once you start understanding the families and regions - it’s pretty compelling

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

I think I may start binging Breaking Bad tonight.

I'll give it a go. Thanks.
