What popular show have you not watched and have no interest or plans in ever watching it?

Mine is Walking Dead - have never gotten the zombie craze and it doesn’t appeal to me at all.

I'm so out of it, I don't even know what shows are popular. 

I guess I'd have to say Modern Family and Orange Is The New Black. Zero interest in those shows.

Gotta be Big Bang Theory for me.  Friends keep telling me how funny it is.  I’ve seen a few minutes of reruns here and there and I don’t get the love.   :sadbanana:

 
SoA

The Wire

Homeland

OITNB

TWD (I used to watch this religiously, but gave up after #DumpsterGate)

This is Us

I know a lot of people that really liked OZ but I thought it was pretty terrible

Anyone that doesn't watch The Wire, Breaking Bad or Mad Men is really missing out

Haven't watched This is us and have no desire to 

 
it's usually the top rated sit coms and/or dramas... things like NCIS or whatever it's called and the nerd show...  big bang. not interesting, not funny. makes me a little bummed that they're celebrated or watched at all, tbh.

eta: and anything to do with housewives or spoiled families reality shows.

I made it through 10 minutes of Rick & Morty before I turned it off. It was 8 minutes longer than I should have but I wanted to say I tried.

Every reality show ever - including Survivor, American Idol, Kardashians, Housewives of wherever, etc.

I've never quite understood lumping all of these into the same bucket. Survivor is a competition.  Yeah, there are "characters" and definitely some hamming it up for the camera. But it's not mindless nonsense like the real housewives or the Kardashians.

For me, the answer is stranger things. I can't possibly be into a show centered around a bunch of annoying kids.

 
Agree with Walking Dead. People swear its a great show, but I just have no interest in the zombie thing.

SoA is just a terrible show. I barely made it through an episode and a half.

I tried both Mad Men and House of Cards and while they were OK, I found them both kinda boring and never made it past season one.

People with no interest in Breaking Bad, GoT, The Wire, and Shamless have no taste.  :P   I suppose you people don't like Dexter either?

 
Deadwood - bored me

LOST - uneven and weird, not in a good way

Breaking Bad - To depressing an underlying premise... or premises; couldn't get into it

Stranger Things - need to check it out again, but felt like forced weirdness and kinda pedantic 

House of Cards - A more sterile pedantic without the weirdness. Never got into the characters  

ETA: Walking Dead.... didn't care about the characters, just not into the genre I guess. Gore without I dont know... giving an#### about anyone or anything else

I guess Curb Your Enthusiasm, Orange is the New Black and Shameless don't count for me because I tried to watch them.  None of them clicked for me. 

This is Us fits the bill.  Based on commercials and conversation, I think I'd rather spend an hour punching myself in the nuts.  So... TIU and every reality show. 

 
stranger things is many things- and I can see not getting into it. but pedantic isn't a word I'd use for it... even though it's a good word.

 
Tried Breaking Bad. Premise is so depressing. Can’t get into it. 

Bailed far too late on TWD. First season was awesome. Got to be so cringe worthy and formulaic after S2.

Ill echo what @TLEF316 said above. Dont see how you can lump them all together? The Kardashians and Alone are both reality shows, but couldnt be more opposite. It's like saying, "I hate all non-fiction books" or "I hate all documentary movies". If the topic interests you, wouldn't you be at least somewhat interested in the reality show about it?

 
GoT, Walking Dead, OitNB, Shameless, all current network dramas & sitcoms. Only sitcoms I ever liked in my adult life were Seinfeld and the Office.

Maybe I need to watch more, cause it was just like set up and boring as #### to me... like I should have liked it, but ... meh.  And boring. which shocked me. But like I said, I only watched a bit, should give it a couple episodes.

PS: Word was chosen because I expected just the opposite

I don't like sports, shows about sports, highlight shows, dramas, comedies, anything on a streaming service, anything on a network, Shameless US or UK, Office US or UK, Mad Men US or UK, reality shows, documentaries, adult cartoons, kids cartoons, or any cooking shows.

I really have never liked anything except for Chemical X's episode of House Hunters.

 
It would be easier to list what I will watch: baseball, hockey, college football, wrestling, American Heroes Channel, Doctor Who.

For everything else, I read a book instead.

 
Anything on any of the four major networks, until the sun burns out.

I know "The Good Wife" got good reviews, but I can't imagine a network lawyer show about a scorned wife has any great life lessons.
