The 10 Worst Sitcoms Ever

[lazarus]

Small Wonder has got to be considered, a sitcom about a family where the father creates an android sister for his little boy. The actress talks in a robotic voice; this thing has to be seen to be believed.

The intro:

And a segment to show you how truly awful it was; I defy you to get through more than the first minute:

This is going to sound condescending or whatnot, but, I mean it when I say that watching about 2:30 of that clip made me sad. Sad for anyone that worked on it and really thought they had something good on their hands. Again, that likely sounds horrid, but I cannot help it, the fucking clip made me sad.

Friends sucks, did I make mention of this?

[lazarus]

If we were making a list of the most overrated sitcoms, Friends would definitely be on there. They have some talented writers, but it's just so whitebread. And it amazes me how many people who I normally consider cool are actually suckers for that shit.

Another overrated sitcom is The Cosby Show. I wouldn't hesitate for one second to strangle the worthless life from that little ragamuffin Rudy. The rest of them aren't much better. And that godawful intro where they dance around like fucking morons while "Cos" mugs for the camera. Fucking nauseating.

I am not joking when I say that The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was a better show (to say nothing of true greats like Good Times), because it at least had one character who DIDN'T come from a life of privilege, and is actually something relatable to the majority of the black community.

Dharma and Greg

What was the name of that other massive sitcom that debuted in around 95 in the US and was kinda promoted along with Friends?

I remember that from I Love The 80's. Funny stuff.

Where would "What's Happening?" fall into this?

Rerun alone makes it better than the Cosby show.

I gotta say I actually really like Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

Good one. I've tried, without success, to erase The Cosby Show from memory. The thing that annoyed me the most about it was the poor attempt at addressing current issues. I vividly remember Rudy being lectured by one of her painful older sisters to refer to white people as "caucasians." Who does that, seriously?

Hermans Head!!

I knew before I came in here that Friends would be mentioned numerously.

But the only I'd heard of was The Nanny.

George Lopez is terrible, and there was one I watched when I couldn't sleep a few months ago... I think it might have been called All in One, or something like that... anyway it had five teenage leads and it sucked so much balls.

Shockingly, that Rules of Engagement show I'm begining to warm to, despite the fact Patrick Warbutron is a brick wall and David Spade is now my least favourite actor ever,

Wait. That made no sense. You know what I mean.

QFT - worst show EVER.

[elevated_u2_fan]

There are several in the late 80's / early 90's that I remember watching and not thinking were very funny - I realize I was younger but still... Of The top of my head:

Golden Girls
Major Dad
Designing Women
Coach
Blossom

I just remembered one of the worst though, does anyone else remember Step By Step?

"Step by Step" (1991)

the fact that this piece of crap ran for 7 fucking seasons blows my mind...

[djerdap]

Every single fuckin' one of them.
