it’s a lot of great TV out there then
there are these shows good afternoon
everyone this is your captain and friend
I’d like to welcome you on jackpot
Airlines flight 1610 service to lost
wages welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we’re counting down our picks for the
top 10 worst TV shows of 2018 so far
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 the
absolute worst shows to air in the first
half of 2018 sorry Serena it’s fine
honestly oh and have another job in like
number 10 take two I’m detective McNair
I’m here to take you home didn’t we
really need another police procedural
ABC certainly seems to think so
and the results are about as dire as
you’d expect oh nice to see you too
Eddie take two comes from married couple
Terry Eddie Miller and Andrew W Marlowe
the creator of castle wow that sounds
promising
take two isn’t nearly as good or even as
possibly entertaining as its predecessor
despite their readily apparent
similarities really bad the cliched plot
is yet another variation on the police
procedural you’ve seen a thousand times
and the juvenile jokes often miss their
broad mark take two is nothing but
derivative summer network television why
do you immediately assume the worst of
people
first I’m number nine life sentence
I love cake and it’s my funeral my
living funeral I’m dying
life sentence has an intriguing premise
it follows Stella a cancer survivor who
now must deal with the consequences of
her carefree cancer driven decisions at
the same time her family must cope with
the sacrifices they made to make her
final years more comfortable stop in
boxes it just feels like it’s ending too
quickly you’re absolutely right
we’re not taking this insulting offer
thank you for keeping me for making huge
mistakes no for example maybe her
husband only married her out of sympathy
and maybe her dissatisfied parents only
stayed together to prevent further
emotional strain on Stella
you could mine a lot of brilliant
material out of this concept but life
sentence wastes it on manipulative and
saccharine sweet platitudes about life
and love all backed by acoustic guitars
it avoids complexity in favor of
off-putting sentimentality I went
through hell they did
but you’re worth it number eight
splitting up together now that looks
like a great show splitting up together
is an American adaptation of a Danish
sitcom about a divorced couple who lives
in the same house with their children
Lake life sentence a lot of interesting
and complex material could be mined for
this concept and the series stars the
always adorable jenna fischer in the
role of the matriarch i was just gonna
go for a quick run before work cool I
was just gonna do the laundry vacuum
plunge the upstairs toilet call a guy
about the broken sprinkler go to work
come home and make dinner however both
the concept and Fischer’s talents are
wasted on cliched writing the show is
full of stock sitcom characters and the
storylines are trite I’m sorry I just
I’m trying to work on that newfound
jealousy abounds the couple explores
boring freedoms and the maybe they’ll
get back together trope quickly rears
its ugly head
this concept deserves better seriously
can you play something a little less
depressing I’m going through a divorce
here but number seven our cartoon
president we are one year into my
presidency and it’s time to finally
admit I am absolutely crushing it our
cartoon president is a woefully
misguided animated sitcom from Stephen
Colbert one of trumps biggest detractors
based on a recurring segment of his
late-night show in an entertainment
landscape full of Trump bashing and
critique an entire show based on the
concept of his outlandish White House is
just redundant little dumb Donnie trader
Trump does whatever Zadi Putin tells him
when he’s not having unprotected orgies
with porn stars with a shades wide open
I can’t turn it off by now it’s safe to
say most people have heard all the jokes
here a million times before it’s just
stale predictable and recycled humor it
works better as short segments and
monologue punchlines
here’s my new Supreme Court justice his
name is bread isn’t that weird
number 6 instinct sorry to bring bad
news but uh there has been another
murder
yep it’s another police procedural Alan
Cumming plays Dylan Reinhardt an author
and professor who helps the New York
police with a serial killer but there is
a twist you see the killer is drawing
his morbid inspiration from Reinhardt’s
book
I know what you’re feeling gratitude
Alan Cumming is the soul star of this
show everything else is so incredibly
by-the-numbers and uninteresting that
you may turn out after the very first
episode hey hey hey hey hey wait a
minute
you’ve seen these characters these
stories even these shocking acts of
violence a thousand times before with
instinct you know exactly what you’re
getting into
while many people love them critics saw
it as just another hackneyed procedural
we don’t have any further questions
detective Needham do we number 5
American woman oh my god we’d make a
stay away from me joke here but we fear
that it’d be too easy American woman
stars the recently elusive Alicia
Silverstone as Bonnie Nolan a woman who
leaves her husband amid the wave of
feminism that swept America in the 70s
driving around trying to frighten people
well you’re not straightening me
okay this show could have told a complex
story about societal constraints and
shifting gender and power dynamics sure
it would be a little madman but it would
still be interesting I don’t take orders
from you right you should be because
your life is never gonna be the same
without me instead the show is full of
archetypal characters and blunt obvious
messages about female empowerment
there’s no nuance it simply expects us
to cheer solely for telling a
progressive story it’s certainly
well-intentioned put painfully flawed
trying number for Alex Inc it’s the
Cadillac of podcast companies the
people’s use Cadillac as a reference we
can’t think of a show released this year
that wasted so much potential
Alex Inc had a brilliant story in the
chamber a radio journalist and family
man played by the mist and charming Zach
Braff quits his cushy job and naively
tries to start his own podcasting
company we’re the most downloaded
podcast in the country it’s an original
concept that could have told a
fascinating story
unfortunately Braff puts on the JD
manchild shtick – frankly unlikable
results
exactly what I need to hear if audiences
don’t like or root for Alex then what’s
the point the show is also too
sentimental and annoyingly quirky and
the overly sick commie jokes are truly
awful what a disappointment I’m sure
that happens to you all the time yeah
all the time
number three here and now why can’t you
talk about it in front of me
because I am my own person who’s not you
with my own boundaries and everything
this is one of those rare HBO swings and
misses here and now is an embarrassing
mix of this is us and Alan balls
previous show Six Feet Under
that’s it you just made a weird face it
follows a wholly unlikable and obnoxious
family and tries to tackle numerous
hot-button topics including race
relations the destructive political
landscape and gender identities I look
at the world and not even the world here
no and all I see is ignorance however
this not only muddles the plot and
characters it also gives the show a
laughable air of self-importance he
wants to be brilliant social commentary
but just comes across as conceded and
overwrought we lost folks we lost number
two LA to Vegas I need to be our real
airline where people aren’t just looking
to cheat on their wives and but smuggle
Molly LA to Vegas is a workplace comedy
produced by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay
a team behind anchorman stepbrothers and
Talladega Nights
it’s certainly a winning combination but
we don’t know if Fox was the right place
for it because it reeks of sitcom
cliches you know in eight months of
flying I think this is the most I’ve
ever heard you talk oh I guess is cuz
you haven’t got me drunk before you want
another one
for example the characters are broad
caricatures with no depth or humanity
and the show often resorts to lame jokes
about sex and drugs it was cancelled
after 15 episodes and it’s not hard to
see why so far number one living
biblically I’ve decided to live my life
100% by the Bible too
I get that reaction a lot we know
there’s still half a year to go but
living biblically is a true contender
for the worst show of 2018 the show
follows chip curry a film critic who
loses his best friend and decides to
start living his life according to the
Bible it’s a decent idea that is
entirely wasted on stock sitcom tropes
if God had only got perfect people to do
stuff no stuff would have ever got done
the characters are thinly sketched every
joke is capped by canned guffaws and the
show is so afraid to offend anyone that
it just becomes annoying living
biblically avoids its own promise by
adhering to the generic set up
predictable punchline formula so guys if
you could just make my new lifestyle
seem as normal to her as possible that
would really help me out tremendously
well try but you look like Diane Keaton
