  1. The Morning Show: Season 2
    To give the second season of The Morning Show something, anything, to propel it forward, there are a variety of soapy dramas, many of them pinned to the new characters. These cobbled together histrionic dramatics are offensive compared to the gravity of the issues of the first season. Even combined, the desperate scrambles of the second season don’t have enough bite, or credibility, for the viewer to invest in.
  2. Veronica Mars: Season 4
    There are a few new characters that are life preservers in this murky swamp of uninteresting plots.
  3. The Inbetweeners (UK): Season 1
    Every cheap sexual innuedndo, obvious adolscent pun, and cliched puerile situation is exploited here. [Holiday 2009, p.86]
    • Under The Radar
  4. The Expanse: Season 1
    This could have been more appealing with a stylized visual approach or a novel tone but instead it's sci-fi-by-numbers. [Nov-Dec 2015, p.78]
  5. Welcome to the Family: Season 1
    Welcome to the Family's storyline is so predictable, it doesn't warrant watching.

    Imperfect Women
    Much of Imperfect Women’s runtime is squandered, wringing these forty-something friends through one plot contrivance to the next.
  7. The Tomorrow People: Season 1
    The Tomorrow People, which is a remake of a 1970s British show, is completely bogged down with rushed exposition, stale acting, and pointless action scenes that leave not much to look forward to.
  8. We Are Men: Season 1
    For a comedy, We Are Men is, in a word, sad.
  9. High Desert: Season 1
    High Desert is barren of laughs, and its tone is as abrasive as a dusty California valley cactus.
  10. My Generation: Season 1
    There is absolutely no reason-other than the sheer good-lookingness of My Generation's cast-to tune into the show. Still, we are rooting for creator Noah Hawley (The Unusuals, Bones) to drag this one out of the mire.
  11. Once Upon a Time in Wonderland: Season 1
    The main storyline isn't strong enough and the incongruous peripheral elements just confuse rather than engage the viewer.
  12. Detroit 1-8-7: Season 1
    The rest of Detroit 1-8-7's cast is fill-in-the-blanks police fodder. The only two characteristics that separate this show is one, it is filmed wholly in Detroit (who cares, a soundstage looks just as convincing) and two, the cameras are handheld (who cares, that shakiness can become very annoying).
  13. Great News: Season 1
    For now, it lacks such innovation, to say the least. It's as stale as yesterday's paper.
  14. Mom: Season 1
    The characters are cookie-cutter, the dialogue predictable, the jokes stale and flat, completely unexpected from a sitcom veteran.
  15. Dads: Season 1
    With such a superior comedy cast, it's deplorable how far this badly written and directed show has dragged them down.
  16. Sleepy Hollow: Season 1
    This could be a watershed moment in TV's long and inglorious history of idiocy, a drama that unintentionally almost matches Arrested Development for laughs.
  17. Outsourced: Season 1
    In under 10 minutes, Outsourced manages to hit numerous offensive Indian stereotypes, borders on being racist, and not remotely funny.
