    OK, I'll agree that particular episode was one of the worst in the whole series, but it really wasn't representative of the show. But hey, everyone has different tastes.

      babylon 5 - everyone told me it was brilliant and I tried to watch it on TNT in reruns from the start and hated it
      Space above and beyond - my brother liked it but I never liked it seemed riduculous that a military agency would wate pilot training on troops who fight on the ground. Top gun meets band of brothers in space - truly horrible
      Survivor - and all it's clone "reality gameshows" with stupid "challenges" and high school election popularity votes

        To say I can't stand that show is being kind. UGH

          Space 1999
          Babylon 5

          I just couldn't get into either one of these. I guess Star Trek has spoiled me!

            I watched a lot of it, but it never really clicked with me either.

              Babylon 5. Not a bad show just couldn't get into it.
              You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                For me, Heroes is way up on the list. Had a great couple of seasons and then turned terrible.

                I really tried to tolerate "The Bachelor/Bachelorette" because my wife loves it and wants me to watch the show. I have tried but I literally get annoyed about 5 minutes into the show and want to poke my eyes out with pencils.

                I finally told my wife that I have tried my best but honestly get nauseated just seeing a commercial for the show so I told her to feel free to watch it...I just can't stand it. You can add American Idol and Dancing with the Stars as well. I am happy to say, I don't know who won last season's American Idol or Dancing with the Stars. I don't know whether or not they are airing the Bachelor or the Bachelorette currently and would not be able to name more than one or two of them if you put a gun to my head and even then, I would have a hard time thinking of their names. I only remember one that had a different last name like St. Michelle or something like that and another that owned a winery but still don't remember their names. There is also the one marriage and I still can't tell you the bacherlorette's name.....was it Jen or something like that?

                      Enterprise; I made myself watch the first season and a few episodes of the second. I can't believe this boring show lasted more seasons than TOS.

                      I was a fan of Smallville until about 3 years ago. I have watched many episodes since then anyway, hoping it gets good again.

                        I agree, it was boring as hell ... I couldn't watch it either

                        I suspect the boob factor (T Pols, that is) helped the geek ratings.

                        Same thing with Voyager's 7 of 9

                        If the network hired a big boobed actress to just stand in front of the screen and do nothing for an hour i'm sure it would have high ratings and be a hit show.

                            Bablon 5. My buddy was really into it. It was depressing.

                            Knight Rider, same guy same reason.

                              Wow...I myself loved Babylon 5...didn't miss a single episode...lol...



                              It's one of the few shows were Earth space forces were one of the weaker and less technologically advanced ones (the only ones with rotating spaceships to create gravity)...humans were the underdogs...I loved that aspect of it.

                                I watched one that was actually happy. Weddings stc , but at the end they could'nt RESIST having on crewmember stare off into space monologing " Today was happy but what darkness waits TOMMOROW?"

                                It's like the opposite of most shows where you know there will be a happy ending.

                                I also tried to like Battlestar Galactica Smallville and Heroes.

                                Got sick of Star Gate after they wrapped up the Egypt thing. No spin offs please.
