Least liked: shows where you’re supposed to hate everyone in them

[–] supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz 1 points 15 hours ago

yeah I love veep but it can get depressing

Most liked: group of misfits/outsiders gets up to shenanigans (from ATLA to It's Always Sunny). Also, European Jew experiences life, is annoyed by it and makes witty remarks (big part of Seinfeld, all of Curb your Enthusiasm).

Least liked: petty, immature, emotionally unstable man does illegal and immoral shit for several seasons, ruining everyone's lives in the process, before dying by the sword just as they lived.

Love: shows where kindness is a major theme (The Good Place, Ted Lasso). Medical stuff where the drama is only in the medical emergencies (The Pitt).

Hate: Annoying voices and spastic motion (so most cartoons).

I definitely get the dislike for nearly all game shows but what's your view of Jeopardy?

[–] memfree@piefed.social 1 points 22 hours ago

I like the radio show "Wait, wait! Don't tell me!" more than Jeopardy. The radio show is always about stuff that got recent attention and mostly news. Jeopardy can be anything and when there's a category about sports or pop music, I'm sunk. It feels like the categories can be tailored for the contestants, and it is too easy to 'get' me with a subject with personalities who are uninteresting to me.
