Shows you're giving up on

Re: Shows you're giving up on

  • Teen Mom & 16&P, The Office, Drop Dead Diva.
  • I would've said that I was giving up on the Office...except that James Spader was so absolutely brilliant in Boston Legal that I'm going to give him a chance as the new boss.

    Otherwise, I haven't watched too many shows that have totally lost my interest.  Deadliest Catch is coming the closest--but that's a January show, so we'll see how I feel in a few months.

  • All versions of 16&pg and Teen Mom

    Grey's

    Private Practice

    Biggest Loser

    Top Model

    Maybe 2 1/2 Men

    Drop Dead Diva - it's the same show every week

    Hoarders/Intervention/Toddlers/Yes to Dress/Storage Wars/Pawn Stars

    Celebrity Rehab/Sober House

  • One Tree Hill -- During the last season I kept asking myself each week why this show is still on the air.

    Biggest Loser -- I don't like the new trainers & now even Bob has become a sellout with his diet pills.

    ANTM -- I just don't care anymore.

  • 16&Pregnant (gave up this past season)
    The Biggest Loser - too much product placement, episodes are too long
    The Bachelorette - I love the Bachelor but the B-ette was so boring. It was my first season watching and I'm not sure I'll watch again.

    I'll give The Office and Glee a shot this season.

    Yes, I forgot about all three of these.  I am done with Biggest Loser and the other two are on their last legs 

  • Regarding Glee... I'm not surprised that it crashed and burned. The same thing happened with Nip/Tuck. It started off brilliantly and then Ryan Murphy (creator of both shows) starts to choke. I believe his biggest problem is that he tries to give the fans what he thinks they want.

  • I saw a few PPs already put this but I gave up on Grey's. It's sad becuase I watched from episode 1 but when Izzy started seeing Denny again in season 4 or 5 it got strange.
  • HawthoRNe...I was ready to give up a couple weeks ago but since it was close to the finale I decided to stick it out.  The season finale was okay but I just don't feel the need to pick it up to see what happens.
    Brenda & Phillip 10/10/2009

    After 6 years of failed cycles, we were blessed with our little man through adoption.

  • American Idol

    Keeping up with the Kardashians - why did I ever give it a first chance?

    I'll probably watch Khloe and Lamar some more, though. I like them better than everyone else. 

    I don't know if I'll suffer through another season of 16 and PG. I was so bored during the last season.

  • The Office - just not funny anymore

    How I Met Your Mother - after 2 seasons of sitcommy non-laughs and I-could-see-that-coming-from-a-mile-away "plot twists," I'm out (even though this used to be my favorite show in the world)

    Probably Burn Notice - we're super behind, but H still likes it, so we'll see

    Pregnancy Ticker
  • Project Runway. I just don't see the point in forcing designers to cut up each other's pajamas or the lamps to show their design skills. Like making clothes from cloth isn't hard enough. And then critiquing it seriously... I just can't keep a straight face.
  • I'm giving Glee a few episodes this fall and if I'm still bored then I'll give up on it. Last season I just never seemed to care if/when I watched it.

    I gave up on Private Practice awhile ago. It's too over the top for me.

  • Rather than edit, I'm adding a new show.  CSI. I've held on sooo long for that show.  I LOVED the Nate Haskill story line with Langston, but really, it was the only really interesting story line of last season.  The fact they had to bring in so many guest cameos was another sign of them jumping the shark. 

    I've never been a huge Ted Danson fan, so this may be the final nail in their coffin for me.  I just hate sudden transitions--I like the fact that Gil was sort of transitioned out of his role and will make guest appearances now and then--and he's mentioned in story lines.  They killed off Warren, so that was a pretty clean cut.  I LOVED that they brought back Sophia--but just for one episode--and no mention of her after that--that made me mad.  We'll see.  But I think this is likely to be my "buh bye" show of the year.

  • Secret Life of the American Teenager-just can't seem to get into it anymore

    Top Chef

    Daisypath Anniversary tickersLilypie Fourth Birthday tickers

    • Royal Pains--I liked the stuff with Boris and Marrisa, this season isn't doing it for me
    wow...it looks like all i did was watch tv, but some of these I didn't watch regularly

    Why can't they have shows like Friends anymore? It was on forever, yet it's the only show I can watch reruns still 10 years later. I've seen each episode like 10 times and still love it every time. They just don't make them like that anymore.

    For reals. 

    YesYesYes

  • House - I love the show and I can still watch reruns over and over, but seriosuly, how many times can the guy go on and off the pills? Then they *finally* get him and Cuddy together only to break them up. I'm over it.
    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker

  • Castle - learned a bit more about some of the things planned and I'm just so over it. I'll probably DVR and watch them all at once, but it's no longer must see TV.

    Really, I've given up on most shows. I think they're all pretty tired. Currently, I love The Big C and Rizzoli & Isles and Breaking Bad. That's about it.
