Not if you remember Bob Thomas kicking a field goal in the snow vs. the Giants to secure their first playoff appearance in your young lifetime. And having all the excitement trashed a week later when the damn Cowboys demolished your/my team 37-7. Or a few years later when the McCaskeys decided to throw around nickels like manhole covers while Ditka was blowing a championship roster.

:lol:

Small Wonder was a show so stupid that I couldn't believe I was watching it, and, in those years before ubiquitous internet, people couldn't believe I watched it.

@Curious Hair: No mentioning how hot Kotter's wife was. That didn't happen until later.

Did we previously discuss my childhood crush on the wife from Welcome Back Kotter or is this just something you intuited?

Models, Inc. was a solid show with a gripping storyline and plenty to say about our topsy-turvy lifestyles.

Any show that has trump the cretin on it is the very definition of insipid.

Damn, responded before I saw Tommy’s post. Had the cliffhanger season finale which was actually the series finale as it was not renewed. Awful

I don't see how you can call a show that had the balls to make a Nazi POW camp as the setting of a comedy only 20 years removed from WWII as insipid.

All of the Nazis were buffoons but at one point each of them had been captured by Nazis?

Then inclusion of Ivan Dixon was perhaps the beginning of funny PC culture though. Like he'd have been there irl :lol:

I still love Hogan’s heroes. Maybe it’s not garbage but it was rain delay theatre when they ran out of baseball follies or a clips from the 73 mlb season.

I tire of your anti-Red State prejudice.

Having said that, I have all the respect in the world for the hotness of the daughters, but Petticoat Junction was the definition of insipid. That's why you groaned when it came on at 12:30 on those days when you were home sick from school.

Crazy hot those Jo's.

The first year I lived with my future wife I became very familiar with the ABC soap line up. 40 something squirrel would like to have a word or fifty with 20 something squirrel.

There are lot of valid nominations, but it's hard to imagine anything being markedly worse than Two Broke Girls.

The only thing preventing it from being as bad as Two and a Half Men is that you can turn off the sound and ogle Kat Dennings.
