All of the dramas (except for 'Star Trek - Enterprise') are just dull cop shows, all of the sitcoms are either dumb-guy-beautiful-wife or family sitcoms with not one drop of originality or creativity. The last good sitcom was Frasier. And, then there's the wholly-uncreative and villanious reality TV genre. The only shows with creativity left, it seems, are cartoons (Sonic X, Pokemon, Duck Dodgers, many more).   (0 people found this comment helpful, 1 did not)

Should I be with Sweet Dean or Bad Boy Jesse? 2. Sitcoms that have fat slobs with beautiful wives. i.e Still Standing 3. COP/Medical/Law dramas-All of them are the same crap. 4. Game shows-Remember when Who wants to be a Millionaire was a hot show? Shows like Greed and The Weakest link pop up. 5. Reality shows-I love them but they are not original. The common themes are eating nasty bugs, dumb stars, hating the chienne du jour, celebrity judges making nasty comments, or putting media wh$%$res into mansions. l. guess some TV shows do have a lack of originality.   (1 people found this comment helpful, 0 did not)
