Hey, wait a second.  Why are all my favorite TV shows on this list?

Cullen - Super Genius, Novelist, and all in all Great Guy.

J.R.

They forgot The Rerun Show. It's shockingly loathsome and insipid. Who thought it was a good idea?! WHO, DAMMIT???!!!

Foywonder

Ironically, it's still a better list than the one TV Guide came out with.

Chadzilla

Party of Five was a pretty decent show until, like all series with a certain hook (i.e. they all live in the same house), the show began jumping through stupid plot loops to keep everyone there rather than have the concept grow with the characters.

And what about the lame-o spin off show with Jennifer Love Hewitt?  Talk about trash!

What's Hee Haw doing on there? That show was hilarious!

raj

I don't know.  Hee Haw was great.  

And some of the other show, I'm just not sure why they're on the list.  I've only watched one episode of Molested, er, Touched by an Angel, and while I don't care for its message, it is no worse than say, Eight is Enough, and doesn't deserve to be mentioned next to Pink Lady & Jeff.  Why isn't Jerry Springer on there? Or The Courtship of Eddie's Father, or, um that 70's show with Buffy & Cissy and the butler Mr. French?  Now that show always creeped me out.

raj

Family Affair.  That's what it was.  Ugh.

J.R.

I liked Homeboys In Outer Space. And where's Dharma And Greg, Soul Man (with Dan Aykroyd as a priest) and Home Improvement? I hate the ABC network.

Dano

I applaud this list for placing that CRAP "Full House" in the top 3 where it belongs.  What alarms me is that the parenthesis next to Full House contain the dates 1987-1995.  EIGHT YEARS???  My God.

I had totally forgotten about Cop Rock.  Thanks for posting that.

Dano

Didn't TV guide list "Hogan's Heroes" as a "worst show"?  I think that was just supposed to be a joke or something.

Chadzilla

Saw an itsy-bitsy snippet of one episode once.  Ronny Cox cowering in his undies (tee and boxers) while a whole bunch of black guys in judge robes danced around him and sang about what a racist he was.

Talk about humiliating, and the song sucked too.

With Jerry Springer, well FHM is a men's magazine.
