Most of the HBO shows that were big in the aughts. I was slightly too young.

I don't care for Dr. Who. I might've gotten into it if I wasn't already invested in 600 or so other series at the time. Unlike the Doctor, I don't have time to catch up.

Game of Thrones seemed bloated and I didn't give it a chance, but I plan on it after having played the excellent TellTale's episodes.

Breaking Bad.
I really tried. I sat through the first two seasons, but most episodes just left me with some depressed everything-is-shitty feeling. Just not my kind of series, I guess.

Also, pretty much every 21st century sitcom. Except Brooklyn Nine Nine, which for some reason I find hilarious. The catchy opening theme helps ^_^

Lost. And Breaking Bad is in my queue. The Golden Girls is another. Twin Peaks I kind of dropped after two episodes, but I'd like to revisit it.

King of the Hill, you've got to have a pretty familiar relationship with Americana and the deep south in general to appreciate. There's a lot of redneck humor you wouldn't get without interacting with rednecks at least a little growing up.

Frasier is actually a fun background show, especially if you like the shows where the protagonist just wants to be happy but can't seem to be happy just like ourselves T___T

I've heard great things about The Wire but I'm not super into intense dramas like that

Walking Dead for me. Was already bored halfway through season 1 and I hear its only got more dragged out since then

I've been a city boy my whole life, but KotH expresses its culture well. The show was underrated for so long only because it was too fucking smart.

Same. I think the US Office definitely 'Americanised' the show and I definitely prefer the UK Office style of humour, but I still think the US version has its moments.

you really should give the wire another shot parappa, it takes a few eps to warm up. although i think you might be at a bit of a disadvantage since you're not american, so im not sure if there are any elements of that show that would need explaining to you

My wife's also watched Sons of Anarky here lately like 3 times now. Just what I overhear and bits I watch I'd never be able to watch it. Synopsis: Group shits on, takes advantage, and uses everyone around them for their own selfishness. Cries about it when it happens to them.

Friends- its okay. I just never felt compelled to follow it and watch the whole series. Plus it went on way too long.

Family Guy- Watched it and loved it through around season 5 but after that it just got too dumb for me and I didnt find the show funny anymore. Theres still certain clips that will make me lol though.

Popular shows I hate
Big Bang Theory- I think the show is stupid, the laugh track is way overused, and I cant see why this is the #1 show on television, its baffling. Was stuck watching a couple episodes with my friends who like the show which is an hr Ill never get back.

Two and half men... Woefully bad and went on for what seems like forever. Only saw about 5 mins of it once and then was stuck watching it at PepBoys once because it was on the Tv there in the waiting area and no way to change the channel!

Adventure Time- Only saw it like once but just seemed dumb to me. I wouldnt say this would be on the hate list though more of the indifferent list.

And as an aside...
Ive never watched-
Stranger Things
Not cause I dont think I would like it but I like to binge through a whole series like that after its finished.

Mad Men
Just never interested me. People have told me its good maybe Ill give it a try someday now that its concluded.

Game of Thrones
This one Ive seen an episode or two and a couple of clips because my friend is way into it so just in passing Ive seen it. Seems decent but some parts are just too violent for my tastes.

I like portions of 'Seinfeld' - especially the bald guy and Seinfeld himself in scenes - but as a show overall I don't really see myself ever delving into it. Compare with something like 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' (very similar if not the exact same premise) which I find hilarious. I think it's all in the show presentation. Seinfeld is just showcased like a regular sitcom, whereas CYE is more freeflowing and doesn't feel so confined/forced.

Yeah I could never get super into The Sopranos. I liked it I guess, I just never felt really a need to keep watching it. Same with Walking Dead, it just felt kinda boring and nothing pulled my into watching more episodes of it.

i disagree seinfeld was one of the few good comedies out there, compared to the other garbage comedies that come out, uh, big bang theory, friends, etc...
