I know we've done threads like this before,but hey...we all have tons of repetition in our lives,so what does one little thread hurt?

I was wondering,what Television programs that Dakkites watched that they just felt an almost "head hanging" shame over,C'mon we all have at least one.

For myself it would have to be Supernatural.

Yes it borrows most of it's story lines from various other works of fiction.
Yes the plots are transparent and simple.
Yes...I know it's eye candy for the ladies...

...But,I can't help it...I watched Supernatural with my Missus and this show has hooked me through the gills to the point of recording past season episodes so I can watch them later.

So what about you Ladies and Gentlemen of Dakka,whats your Dirty TV Secret?

Misfits, its stupidly popular with my peers which normally indicates its complete crap and there is little or no progression between episodes as every major event gets the whole "aha go back in time so none of it ever happened" treatment but I can't stop watching it .

You're not really supposed to watch it for the intricate plot though, you're supposed to watch it for Nathan's one liners

Yeah that is pretty much why I watch it

At the monent I am enjoying episodes of that 70's show. I like to paint to it because I find it funny and it isn't something you have to focus your whole attention on.

Jeremey Kyle.

Nothing like watching not-quite-humans throwing the metaphorical poop around the studio.

TNA Wrestling.

It's not even good wrestling.
There's like ten minutes of actual "fighting."
I must admit, the hilarious sexism and slight racism gets me every time. Some things really don't change, do they?

This, and Maury for the same reason. Although Maury has more 'uncertain baby daddy' episodes... oh the hilarity.

Hey I watch Supernatural! Only because my sister got me involved.
And then I also watch How I met your mother.
And my dirty secret tv show I watch hmmm what would it be.... Ah yes, the Twilight Zone and Ghost Whisperer.

*sigh*

Prison Break.

My guilty pleasure. It's so absurd. So over the top. So stupid in some cases (more than 24, if you can believe that) ... but I can't help but love the show.

I even own the series on DVD.

What's wrong with the Twilight Zone?

Oh I can beat all of those shows hands down for lameness.

Seaquest DSV!

Now that was craptastic and I loved every episode I saw, even though it was the dumbest thing I've ever seen!

yes. It is dirty secret, because people in my grade think the Twilight zone is Stupid, So far I haven't told anyone about it except the internet it is safe here.

Wow...

Never heard of the show, googled it, yeah...that definitely trumps Seaquest for lameness!

My god, I actually thought I was watching a parody of something!

Well played!

We'll let the Committee of Un-American Activities decide that.

Why would I watch tv with lame ass commercials, if every episode and it's mother can be found on the internet without them.

All I watch though is QI and big bang theory XD

Big Bang Theory is a good show.

South Park trumps all.

I like South Park (even the so called 'crappy' new episodes), but BBT is pretty good also.

Ah South Park.

That...that was a fond memories "ah?" I hope.

I haven't watched much TV since Toonami was sacked.

I only hang my head with shame at Adult Swim for continuing to grind out crap shows only using money and effort on commercials rather than the actual show.

I thank Discovery and History for giving me something worth watching that isn't about the end of the world

Sister Wives.

I can't look away.
