Most underrated for next time! Although what is defined as underrated? If a show is lauded by critics but has a relatively small viewership, is that considered underrated?? I’m specifically thinking of Better Call Saul as an example of that.

[ohmylol]

Is BCS viewership that small? I thought it was good/average for a Cable show , but yeah, I would consider it underrated too, same with The Americans

Oh actually I’m not sure of the actual numbers lol. I’m going on me not knowing anyone who watches aside from ONTDers with ~taste.

Yes for The Americans, too!

still seething from Game of Thrones winning best drama when it was the Americans' last season

I’d be into ‘very popular male/female character you can’t stand’

I appreciate the second poll, I just voted for that one.

‘Why Doesn't The General Public Have Taste versus What Does This Show Have To Do For Reviewers To Hop Off Their Dicks.’ - yea that’s much better imo, but now we know for future originals

I don't know how a n y o n e can watch Gilmore Girls. I have tried. I have made it through 2 seasons. Everyone is insufferable!

I just saw clips of it and found it off putting hearing them speak lol. Whatever convo they were having just sounded unnatural to me

i can't even explain it. i rewatch it from time to time and i hate lorelai and rory so idk why i do it.

I grew up with it. There weren't many shows on during its time that had its main focus on female centered relationships. That said, I can still recognize how problematic it is and how it isn't for everyone.

I really need a post with the most overrated showrunner because there are a lot of bad tv shows being lead by the same trash, to only cast white, straight characters and queerbaiting the hell out of them and killing the female characters and sidelining the non-white characters.

I need it solely to scream about how Steven Moffat is a twat

Gilmore Girls is the most overrated to me

I don't think it's absolutely awful but the amount of discussion it inspires to this day just baffles me

Voted for most underrated show for the next poll, I find it easier to pick which thing I like the most rather than which one I dislike the most
