TV Series most people hate but you like.
« on: August 03, 2015, 10:11:54 PM »
So I have been rewatching alot of Star Trek lately, and just started watching Enterprise again.

I watched star Trek with my dad growing up alot, and I can remember watching Enterprise when it was released with him and enjoying it at the time, and in years since it is seen as the "bastard son" of Star Trek in the way the prequels are to Star Wars.

This got me thinking, what are some series you love even though most people do not, and why?

Rewatching Enterprise the way they did the tech (It being the past, done after the other series in real life) actually worked well in comparison, the story is actually well done for the most part for Star Trek standards (I feel like they went into Time Travel too early and that made alot of people not like it, Episode 1, REALLY? lol), and overall the acting is pretty good for TV of the time.

Nostalgia may have some factor to it, but even with all the stuff I notice that is off/not right, the series overall hold up, to me.

I'm a big voyager fan but people seem to hate on it a lot. Janeway is smoking and the ship design is beautiful. Too much holodeck tho.

Yeah same here, for me we watched together the reruns in the eighties of the first original Star Trek.

I've always thought Next Generation was by far the best. I love all the great characters like Data, Worf, Jean-Luc, Geordi, Wesley etc..

Three's Company.  Hey I was poor growing up.  We didn't have cable so sitcoms were a big thing in my home.

Yeah NG is my favorite series of ST by far. I just re watched the whole thing last month.

I would agree, Voyager was great, but way too much holodeck.

I wasn't a huge Enterprise fan, but I watched it all the way through, which is more than I can say for DS9 and Voyager.

We need a thread like this for movies. Unpopular movies actually exist, unpopular TV generally gets cancelled real quick. Even a "flop" like Enterprise must have made some money or they would have killed it much sooner. Now OC and Stiggs...I've only ever met one other person who didn't hate that movie. Even the director has abandoned it.

There was a show (I think back in 2000 or 2001, I don't remember) called She Spies.
It was sort of a low-rent modern day version of Charlie's Angels.

I quite liked it, but it never really seemed popular with the masses.

Full House wasn't bad at all.
In fact, most of the ABC "TGIF" Friday night family comedies were quite enjoyable.
Life seemed so much simpler back then, at least if those shows are anything to go by.

Hate is a strong word, but I lost the ability to stomach it around the time I turned 9 years old.
