The Worst New TV Shows of 2019
What were the biggest television duds of the past year? Above are the lowest-scoring first-year primetime TV series (including limited series) debuting in the United States between January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019. Shows are ranked by Metascore (an average of grades from top professional critics on a 0-100 scale) prior to rounding, and must have at least 4 reviews from professional critics.
(#5) Give Apple some credit: In less than two months, the tech giant's newly launched streaming service managed to place two shows in our bottom 10. Now that's impressive! You probably won't want to see See, which wastes a reported $15 million per episode budget—that's final-season Game of Thrones money—on a very silly post-apocalyptic story set in a future where humans have lost their sight. And it's not even the worst piece of entertainment created by Steven Knight in 2019. (This is.)
“See relies on graphically gory battle scenes to carry a largely incoherent story, but I found myself giggling far more often than its creators intended. You almost have to admire its goofy confidence… as wrongheaded as it might be.” —Dave Nemetz, TVLine
