On the other place I constantly saw memes of shows that I thought ‘well if they’re that popular they must be pretty good’

Shows like:

Avatar, The Office, Parks and Rec and IT Crowd

I’ve watched them and I just don’t get it. They aren’t so amazing that they are worth that level of adoration IMO. Avatar has its good spots and Parks and Rec is pretty enjoyable but I cringe at American office and IT crowd is forgettable.

However a show I actually really like, Community, only started getting the same type of treatment after the pandemic because people watched it on Netflix. Although it’s still not as popular as these others. Are people just really basic or am I out of touch?

Anyway, what show did you watch and think ‘I don’t get what the fuss is about’? Maybe it was Community?

    I agree somewhat, I never actually finished watching it, I was shocked when it just seemed to continue season after season. The show turned into a zombie.

      Yeah, I didn’t make it past season 2. I’ve definitely watched more episodes of worse shows, but Walking Dead just did nothing for me. I am glad it helped popularize Steven Yeun though, he’s awesome.
