For me if I had to pick a good contender it would be the UK version of The Office.

I know many tend to debate how Ricky Gervais really fell off and how he repugnantly acts like a whiny centrist edgelord but me personally IMO I actually don’t think he was ever funny not even a little.

His big break through television was just so painful to sit through it’s so charismatically boring the characters are completely generic at best (notably Tim) or straight up insufferably unlikable at worst (especially the protagonist David FUCKING Brent) and most importantly the humour is just embarrassing.

Always seemed like The Thick Of It but without the nuisance tongue in cheek and charming satire.

    Dr. Seuss. I really don’t know why, but that stuff is creepy and disturbing in a way that almost nothing else is. All of it. The art, the writing, the themes. I literally just can’t even.

    Harry Potter, even ignoring how much of a piece of shit the author is the books just aren’t particularly well thought out.

    American football. Fox turned it into a video game you can’t play.

    Mens soccer. Stop with the fucking cry baby drama! Women’s soccer is better in this regards.

    The US version of The Office, LOL.

    Watched 8 episodes and would rather watch paint dry for the rest of my life than watching the rest of the series.

    Mad Men. Everyone on that show is a fucking scumbag and not in a funny or interesting way.

    Also Thor Ragnarok. I hate it for the reasons people say they hate the next one but it was the same people that said they liked Ragnarok so Idk what the fuck is going on there. I’m not watching the second one to find out.
