Flicking through the TV guide has left me very disappointed. 2013's television started off really well with shows like Africa, Ripper Street, Wild Arabia, Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe, Dancing on the Edge, Mrs Brown's Boys as well as a host of other short documentary series. Now however there is well...not much. I mean there are the usual things that are always on, but other than that there isn't anything worth opening your eyes for. In fact, there are some shows which really shouldn't be broadcast. Here are some of the worst.
Gogglebox
It is a show about people watching television. So you'll be sat there watching, on television, people watching television.
Paddy's TV Guide
Watching this will lower your IQ. Imagine if your brain had testicles. Now imagine being kicked hard in the brain testicles for half an hour. That is the best way to describe watching this show.
Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway
Its just like cramming your head with some sort of mind pudding. You know its bad for you, it doesn't taste all that great but it isn't that bad for just sitting there and gorging on.
Almost anything on BBC 3
They just keep churning out painfully mediocre or samey shows. Family Guy aside, there is just nothing which anyone will remember in about 2 weeks time.
Hollyoaks
I have no idea how this is still running. Well actually I do, sort of. Put is this way, blind people wouldn't tune in, but a deaf person would. Lets face it, the dialogue isn't exactly brilliant.
Call the Midwife
Massively overrated borefest.
Our Queen
A sodding two hour long documentary on ITV about the sodding Queen during 2012. Yeah forget the Olympics and the Paralympics, the possible discovery of the Higgs boson, the Arab Spring, Curiosity landing on Mars, Felix Baumgartner's sky dive and Obama's re-election, let's just look at this rich woman waving for two hours. Fantastic.
Oh well, at least Doctor Who is back on soon.
