Best/Worst Show On Telly

OK, with the World Cup about to start in a few days all we hear about at the moment is hype regarding it.

This begins to bore me so I like not to get involved and watch 'normal telly' in my free time.

So what are your favourite and worst programs that are on at the moment?

Best - Lost (Yes even the reruns) or World Cup heaven and hell (The hatred of Argentina and Germany from the English in this show is something to savour.

Worst - Without a moment's hesitation ---- Big Brother

Well Joe I think you got the worst nailed with Big Brother. Total Boredom!!!

There are a few other contenders though...

1. Strictly Dance Fever. Absolute Rot.

2. Celebrity X-Factor. More Publicity seekers wanting there face on the telly.

3.Anything with Richard and Judy. Although this might get some comedy awards.

Best of the Telly

1. Only Fools and Horses. I've seen them all more than once but the still make me laugh. Pure Class. They don't make them like this any more.

2. Lost. Seems to be ages between episodes as you anticipate and try to guess the plotlines. Edge of the seat stuff.

3.Soccer AM. Having withdrawal symptoms may watch the DVD for a fix.


All because the lady loves......

Good shout Don Juan but have you not forgotten the best animated show on the TV.


The Simpsons. Loved by the young adored by the old. Suitable for all ages. Good clean family fun.

Do you know why I hate Celebrity X-Factor so much?

Two main reasons [but people will probably tell me more] for this CHARITY event.

1. They PAY the celebrities to perform! [£25,000 each while Chris Moyles demanded £100,000 because he was the 'biggest star' that was appearing]
2. When phone users vote they pay 50p each time - OK great, I agree that there are costs involved with running this type of show but ony 10p goes to the charity!]

Come on people who are actually the REAL winners????

Can't go prison break.

best- Sopranos by a country mile. And frasier.
Been looking at the rest of the posts though, and Scrubs is pretty damn good. Does anyone else watch Two guys and a girl? genius!
And as for worst, I would have plumped for B.B immediately, but Legend has made it a tie with Little Britain. Christ, what a load of crap.....

I like Little Britain, it is hilarious. As is Suburban Shootout.

Also, I know it is finished but Phoenix Nights is still class.

best- the Spranos, Frasier, Lost, anything on UK TV history, songs of praise and Hollyoaks- for the chicks man, the chicks

:angry: Worst- any reality tv show ( well i suppose it does work 1 brain cell, handy if that's all u have). soaps and the Jeremy Kyle show (what a self-righteous, pompous prick!!!!)


The FORCE will always triumph over the dark side!!!

You don't realise how good U.K telly is until you live abroad, Portuguese t.v is like the Chanel 9 sketches in the fast show only worse.
My favourite all time programme must be The Simpsons ,the worst any Portuguese soap.

I have spent some time in Asia and some of the shows there are awful. In fact awful would be too kind a word. You can tell that many of the sets are cardboard and the acting....

As a Scrubs-a-holic i have been watching the new series on E4 on thursday nights and i have discovered a show called "The War at Home" afterwards. Absolutely brilliant.

Greece always wins...Its true too...comparing the two is like dumb and dumber...you call it crap and crappier.

I made a movie for a school project once...it was better then the things I see on tv sometimes, Ill put it this way.

I usually just watch football on tv thats about all I can take...
