there were your madman’s your Sopranos
and your wires and then there are these
why do you care about this girl maybe I
like her legs welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’re counting down our picks
for the top ten worst TV dramas of all
time and to cut end on the story short
no please just spare me the details it
was not the Queen mum’s birthday all
over again
before we begin we publish new content
every day so be sure to subscribe to our
Channel and ring the bell to get
notified about our latest videos for
this list we’re looking at television
dramas that are considered poor by
either or both TV watchers and critics
no matter how brief their run may have
been we’ll also be somewhat liberal with
the definition of drama basically as
long as the show generates conflict and
emotion from its characters it can be
it’s liking that also we won’t be
considering miniseries despite how bad
the Kennedys after Camelot was I want
you to do something important with your
life I want you to do something that
would make your father proud my father’s
good number 10 Charlie’s Angels ready no
we’re not talking about the 70 show
that’s a classic we’re talking about
ABC’s 2011 reboot which was both
horribly misguided and unnecessary
didn’t we just have two movies about the
Angels not only was the idea lazy but it
seemed as if every facet of the
production was as well the scripts were
atrocious and critics often lamb basted
the three main actresses for being bland
I’ve got a text from Gloria she wanted
me to meet her after work and why not
come in instead of lurking around on the
street it also did away with the campy
fun of the original and presented itself
far too seriously
at least the 70s version had strong
female characters at a time when that
was relatively rare well done angels
Thank You charlie number nine super
train as a result transit corporation
will construct starting from scratch the
First Continental railroad built in this
country in 75 years super train is the
holy grail of failed television at the
time it was the most expensive TV show
ever produced in the United States
NBC put a massive amount of money behind
its marketing hoping that it would be
the next big thing think the game of
thrones of the 1970s however the show
ended up being both a critical and
unsurprisingly it was canceled after
just nine episodes despite a valiant
effort from NBC to save their hopeful
cash cow it was an utter failure that
nearly bankrupted the network it’s now
regarded by many as the biggest
television flop of all time with you
right now
number eight hunters in the modern
landscape of television a show needs to
be exceptional to get noticed it’s no
surprise that hunters was quickly buried
and forgotten about you know what
hot-headed police officer Afghan that
defend training hunters was a sci-fi
show about an organization that protects
the world from alien terrorists the
entire show was roasted by critics who
called a generic and cliched and
criticized the amateurish production
values we just lost it even holds the
distinction of being the rare TV show to
hold a 0% critics rating on Rotten
Tomatoes after week viewership the last
six episodes were pushed from 10:00 p.m.
to midnight and the show was canceled
after just one season you don’t owe me
an apology
number 7 Criminal Minds Beyond Borders
you have got to be kidding me I wish I
was Criminal Minds has been around
forever and while it isn’t considered
prestige television by most it’s still a
safe show that continues to generate
millions of viewers spin-offs were
inevitable but this one lacks the appeal
of the original Beyond Borders followed
the basic Criminal Minds outline only
this time it involved American citizens
who are in trouble in other countries we
know about the Avalanche that killed
if the generic decades-old story lines
weren’t bad enough the show was also
riddled with xenophobia as the show
often portrayed foreign countries as
dangerous violent hell escapes given the
uneasy political climate of the mid
2010’s this was the opposite of what was
needed on our TV screens you cannot
honestly say that this hellhole is going
to be the last one we were on can hear
you then I’m sane that’s another problem
I mean not a single word of English
number six Eldorado it’s no secret that
soap operas aren’t thought of as the
highest form of drama but the classic
soap opera could seem like the wire when
compared to Eldorado would you say she
was 17 if she’s a day yes well some
girls prefer an older man oh but not
funny I mean he’s old enough to be your
father
Eldorado was primed to be BBC’s next big
ambitious soap in the end it was a mess
critics called the acting horrendous as
many of the actors had little to no
prior experience and many characters
spoke in bizarre and unbelievable
accents hey listen you did a good job
yesterday
Miguel called me he was very pleased the
production itself was also amateurish as
the show often suffered from sound
problems due to filming in inappropriate
locations rather than in a studio the
production difficulties resulted in the
nervous breakdown of a producer and the
show was swiftly cancelled after just
one year do you know how much money I’ll
get the biskits
you should ask for more I’m gonna have
to untie what with that anger booth
you’ve just about blown the lot number
five stalker
wearing a silk blouse hint of a bra red
fingernail polish
I took the male leap that it was meant
to be noticed let my eyes linger in
hopes that you would be flattered
stalker was a CBS procedural that
starred Dylan McDermott as detective
Jack Larsen a man who must work with his
team to solve various stocking cases yes
stalker was generic and trophy but
that’s not why people found it so
terrible after all there are tons of
generic shows out there instead soccer
was viciously attacked by critics due to
its overly nihilistic and violent tone
fear mongering and misogynistic
tendencies it was considered an ugly
show full of ugly characters and
situations and it was canceled after
just one season due to its dreadful
reviews and inadequate audience size
what’s not to hate you can’t guarantee
that
all right that I’m just gonna say it
why do you wear sexy things if you don’t
like Charlie’s Angels Ironside was a
misguided attempt at remaking a classic
series this time the target was Ironside
an NBC drama that ran for eight seasons
throughout the 1960s and 70s the 21st
century show garnered controversy before
it even aired by casting a non-disabled
actor in the role of the disabled Robert
Ironside and it only got worse from
there was it a condition of employment
Ironside was butchered by critics for
its manipulative treatment of
disabilities it’s unpleasant main
character and it’s derivative nature you
know what happens sex with it so you
turns out audiences don’t like being
preached to as the show lasted only nine
episodes and only four of those aired on
broadcast TV sorry I didn’t mean to
assault you it can’t be easy
okay you’re gonna have to bear with us
while we describe cop rock because it
sounds like something we made up but
trust us we didn’t the show was created
by Steven Bochco the same man who gave
us police procedural classics like Hill
Street Blues and NYPD Blue
only this time he blended hard-hitting
cop drama with musical numbers yep this
the concept itself is ridiculous and the
tonal imbalances left us questioning
whether we should take it seriously or
not it was unsurprisingly cancelled
after just 11 episodes and it quickly
went down in history as one of TV’s most
number two South Beach look if something
was wrong or agency would have cost
somebody
South Beach had a few big names behind
it future Breaking Bad star Giancarlo
Esposito starred as gangster Robert
Fuentes and Jennifer Lopez was billed as
an executive producer
but despite the talent South Beach ended
up being one of televisions worst shows
it was considered both pretentious and
mindless and the dialogue was heavily
criticized due to its numerous cliches
and platitudes what happens if I say no
this is how you get to the top you can
only sleep your way to the middle the
show failed to garner well any interest
as it was one of the lowest rated shows
in television at the time if he screws
up just one time where if I see any
appoint as his thugs around here he is
out it was quickly cancelled after eight
episodes and it has yet to appear on
home video due to extremely low interest
you know and I said that would be a part
of each other’s lives forever this isn’t
exactly what I had in mind before we
unveil our number one pick here are some
honorable mentions Jeff goes and that’s
you’re the other one
[Music]
number one vivillon vivillon really
should have worked
cBS put a ton of money behind it in
superstar hugh jackman both starred and
served as executive producer
but even Jackman’s star power wasn’t
enough to save this production vivillon
squandered all its potential in just
about every area it’s writing acting and
directing were all heavily criticised
with some critics calling it the worst
TV show ever
despite the budget it was cancelled
after just two episodes due to the
scathing reviews and lack of viewers
it’s now considered one of the biggest
failures in American television history
both critically and commercially when
exactly did buddy change his will
Armando because the last time I checked
he was leaving everything to me that
would be the night he was killed and is
that legal do you agree with our picks
