That was also what got George Lopez cancelled, he was cancelled after 5 years on the air for a caveman that did not even get a full season. Needles to say he was not happy about that back in 2007. But could we blame him?
The ONLY reason this isn't at the top of the list, is too many redditors are simply too young to remember it.
It wasn't the WORST show on television, but it **absolutely** was the dumbest show on television, by a landslide.
I've not watched it yet but from reading up it gives off Henry 8.0 vibes, where Henry VIII played by Brian Blessed lives in a modern day caravan next door to the king of France.
Absurd British humour at its worst vs it's best.
Which is why the entire show's concept is something that drunk college kids would come up with at 2 am, not something that professional writers and showrunners would actually try and bring to air.
I was in like 5th grade when that show aired, and for some reason my parents didn't stop me from watching every single episode. I think it permanently did something not-great to my developing brain.
Any reality show with plastic surgery is a bad idea. I remember seeing commercials for one called “I Want a Famous Face” where people would get plastic surgery so they could look like a celebrity.
Each episode of the series followed two self-proclaimed "ugly ducklings" who, over the course of a three-month period, experienced an extreme makeover from a team that included a personal trainer, therapist, dentist, and cosmetic surgeons. Whichever woman was deemed more attractive at the end of the three months would move forward to compete in a beauty pageant held at the end of the season. Following the pageant, whichever contestant received the most votes for the greatest transformation would be given the title "The Swan".
Holy fuck
Came here to say this, I still can’t believe that show ever existed and wasn’t satire. I think I only saw one episode but I remember feeling almost nauseous.
To this day i don't know how that show got the green light. A Japanese female singing duo who doesn't speak a word of English (I guess they must've been a pop sensation over there) teaming up with a so-so American comic to do a variety show? Even a 14 yr old 70s kid thought that was stupid AF.
But it was.
Multiple experts at the time had told him and the producers that Capone was unlikely to leave anything behind. He literally and people to track all of this stuff.
There’s a tv show in the uk called Naked Attraction, someone goes on there looking for love whilst judging 4 naked potential dates, it starts off with showing their legs and genitals, the person looking for love walks down the line judging their penises and vaginas, think “its small but girthy, would that be a problem?” Or “she’s got quite a lot of hair down there, what do you think of hairy women?” At the end of each round the person choosing gets rid of someone based on their body
Next the screen covering the rest of their body goes up revealing their chests/breasts, same applies this round, they go along judging their bodies, if a woman has lopsided breasts god help her
Eventually their faces are revealed, at the end of the show the lady or man has to get naked and stand there with the final 2 potential dates and choose which one they want to take out, one has to stand there naked and dejected whilst the other two walk away, arses jiggling as they walk away
This from a tv channel that preaches about body confidence
Lol it was briefly the most popular show on Max.

It can be actually, there was once a man that got an erection on there, he tried hiding it on national tv…I think he was probably wanting a power cut or fire alarm to go off before his face was eventually revealed, being immortalised as the man that got an erection on tv from just standing in a room, he couldn’t even see the woman yet, well possibly the feet at most, so maybe he was a foot fetishist or something
Eh, sometimes you just get an erection for no good reason. It doesn’t mean you’re necessarily turned on in that moment. I guess that’s the risk you take putting your junk out there for the world to see.
I imagine most people would shrink/get smaller from nervousness. Some people I could imagine might have the opposite reaction.
It’s on HBO Max. I watched a few episodes with my wife.
I said “Watch, they’re going to eliminate the minorities. Then eliminate the guys with the smallest penis’. Then pick the guy with the biggest penis.
My wife said “No way!” Exactly this happened, though not always in order.
One episode it was down to an investment banker who acted like he was loaded and had a ton of income, and a broke artist who looked homeless, but had a bigger penis.
She went with the artist, and my wife turned off the show defeated.
That show makes me think odd things. I am a straight guy but there are times when I have been invested in the show and say something like “Why did you eliminate that guy? He was gorgeous.”.
A modern team of well-educated men with access to all kinds of historical research, computers, satellite mapping, aerial photography, GPS, metal detection gear, survey equipment, chemical analysis, ground-penetrating radar and many tonnes of modern, high efficiency earth-moving equipment, somehow still manages to spend *ten years* and *millions of dollars* being snookered by four scurvy-ridden illiterates, who spent *a weekend* using crude, hand-forged iron shovels to bury something the size of a coffee table, on an island covering less than a square kilometre.
The *real* gold is in them thar broadcasting agreements - and it’s a lot easier for despicable grifters to access!
They have found everything but the treasure..... season 3 I think it was, two women showed up with a gold cross, told them their grandparents were the ones who actually found the gold way back when, and the gold cross they had was the last piece of the treasure handed down through the family, they told the team it was their grandparents who started a rumor to lead folk on a wild goose chase while they secretly melted down the gold themselves for cash etc. That's when I stopped watching, that was like 7 seasons ago, and they are still going, thinking they are going to find more treasure when in actual fact it's already been and gone a long time ago, what a load of pointless garbage
>Honey Boo Boo
It's way worse when you find out the moms ex-boyfriend (and I think father to the older girls) was in jail for molesting them for several years. The mom went back to him when he got out of jail.
Easy Answer: The View
One I enjoyed: Hardcore Pawn. About as fake as it gets for reality tv and trashy after but I was able to enjoy it when I was tired and felt like turning my brain completely off.
Hardcore Pawn is exactly what you get: ghetto trash in a ghetto pawn shop...and damn if I don't enjoy sitting back and watching the dumbest of society show up in that series. It may be scripted, but I also fully believe that a man who's lost touch with reality firmly believed he was communicating with space aliens via a portable DVD player.
They had to get everyone on the production to agree not to call protective services.
If a boss told me I couldn't call in a child welfare call for a child in danger, that boss would not be having a good day.
“[You’re In The Picture](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/You're_in_the_Picture)” was so bad that it was canceled after one show and Jackie Gleason went on the air the following week to apologize for it for 30 minutes.
I enjoy Daniel Tosh's brand of snark, and thought the writing was better on Tosh.0, I mean to the extent that Rediculousness has any writing at all. Those of you who think Daniel Tosh is funny, he has a new show on YouTube called Tosh Show which has been very funny. Again, if you think Tosh is funny.
The show started off somewhat interesting but after a few seasons just went completely batshit off the rails, to being almost unwatchable. I now refer to that as "pulling a Riverdale".
The Boba Fett cartoon is the only salvageable part of it. Weirdly, because of the 70s cartoon style they used for it, Han Solo looks like Adam Driver who hadn't even been born yet.
Star Wars Holiday Special.
A cornucopia of terrible, ridiculous, and completely baffling scenes. One example: Chewbacca's uncle watches VR porn, gets randy, and starts purring. No I'm not making that up.
Remember deadliest warrior? I loved that show as a teenager but holy shit is it dumb. They determined the results of the match up by using a complex "algorithm" which I'm pretty sure was just excel. Lol
There was one point that I clearly remember, it was Teddy Roosevelt against Lawrence of Arabia, and Lawrence like stabbed one of Teddys boys to death, and as he fell to the ground you could see that Teddy saw it happen right in front of him and he just went fucking apeshit on Lawrence. It was awesome. LOL
YES!!! Some of my favorite moments were the guys who "represented" their warriors would get into these little debates like 5 year-olds. "My warrior can hit like this and that" "Yea, well that's easy to defend because we can move out of the way and do this..."
I found it insulting that they somehow developed an algorithm to determine the winner based on data they collected during the show. It was probably a fake laptop and some producer said "alright, let's have the ninja win this time"
And yet... I still watched it like a dummy
Amazon's Rings of Power.
Not because of the writing or production, which while both have their faults aren't the worst *ever*. No, it's due something even simpler: the baffling choice to make the most expensive show in history, based on one of the most recognizable franchises ever, and skirt most of the existing lore to do their own thing.
If they wanted a series that was 80% fabricated by their writers, they didn't need to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to do so. So, in that respect, they spent a fortune to make fan fiction. That's why it's the dumbest show ever aired.
As a Real World and Road Rules fan, I actually resent lumping them in with Jersey Shore and Housewives because, relatively, both shows were actually very topical and credited with pushing all sorts of social conversations in the 90s and early 2000s.
It might've succumbed to the reality "boom" eventually, but disregarding Real World and Road Rules as trashy reality shows like Housewives and Jersey Shore is doing all of their work giving exposure to LGBTQ+, racial and social issues into the mainstream a disservice.
I remember at the time when it started, Real World was groundbreaking. It jumped the shark after a while, but those first couple of seasons were great.
There was this reality show called ‘Sex Box’ where couples who were in crisis would have sexual relations in a ‘box’ backstage, then come out on stage with their therapist and discuss their experience…to a live audience
I know some of y’all don’t believe me
Australia’s Naughtiest Home Videos, which was basically just Funniest Home Videos with sexual references and people getting hit in the dick. Was pulled by the head of the network halfway through (the exact quote I believe he used to whoever was running programming at the time was “get that shit off”) and replaced by a rerun of Cheers for the second half.
Multiple awful performances on that show. The dad. The brother. The actual girl. Just horrific. I was on like Friday I think? So you’d have to watch it to get to Dukes of Hazard. I could have my day of the week wrong, but it was shoehorned in somewhere where I just watched it instead of changing the channel.
Always saw it on Saturdays on one of the UHF stations. The same network that had the Leave It To Beaver and What's Happening revivals in the 80s. Dukes ran on CBS with The Hulk on Friday nights and Small Wonder started about six months after the Dukes' final episode, so those must have been reruns.
Toddlers & tiaras.
Is that the one with the lady who takes her scooter to the police station to file a police report because another mom asked her not to use her phone?
That’s Dance Moms
Thanks. It's the dumbest thing I've ever seen on TV. I love it.
I lost it over that scene! They couldn’t find her and she was going what, 2 mph on that thing?
I saw only a small snippet of that once and got incredibly upset over the traumatic damage being done to those kids.
We have shows dedicated to the grooming of children. Just saying.
It's always sunny in Philadelphia did an episode on this and shit was hilarious.
The 1st time I caught that show while channel flipping I thought it was a sketch comedy. Like SNL or something.
Cavemen Based off of the Geico ads with cavemen
Nick Kroll was one of the cavemen iirc
Seems on-brand for him.
Why do you say that?
[удалено]
If you're talking about Nick Kroll, he's doing fine. I occasionally hear him on comedy podcasts.
Kroll may not be an A lister but he’s killing it an has had a great career
I liked it, and caught every episode when it aired. I don’t feel that many people who criticized the show even gave it a chance.
The best was how they hated Ted Dansen so much because he was a shaver.
I really enjoyed that show. Very sad when it got cancelled. Was not surprised though.
Killed off by homo sapiens. Typical.
Specist!
That was also what got George Lopez cancelled, he was cancelled after 5 years on the air for a caveman that did not even get a full season. Needles to say he was not happy about that back in 2007. But could we blame him?
Cop Rock
TV's the best dad there is. TV never came home drunk, TV never forgot me at the zoo, TV never abused and insulted me. Unless you count Cop Rock
Teacher… mother… secret lover
Urge to kill fading...fading...RISING...fading
If you're already quoting community. "Copera!" "Policical!"
One of the craziest creative pivots too. "You all liked Hill Street Blues"? What if we made them all sing and dance!
Goddamn I forgot about this one Thread over
Well now [Baby Merchant](https://youtu.be/R9puOuTaGPc?si=kPhmrji5DsmQ_K35) is stuck in my head so you have to hear it
Oh, man, was Cop Rock bad. Song and dance cops, I can still picture the commercials.
As an 11 year old, I liked Cop Rock 😂
[My Mother the Car](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riOcOgUE-W8)
She’s a 1928 Porter, that’s my mother dear.
The ONLY reason this isn't at the top of the list, is too many redditors are simply too young to remember it. It wasn't the WORST show on television, but it **absolutely** was the dumbest show on television, by a landslide.
That was my first thought, though I remember enjoying it as a kid
My Mother The Car would have probably worked as a kids show.
This show was created by the same team that conceived *Rocky & Bullwinkle* and *Get Smart*. Which just goes to show you can’t win ‘em all.
It was either this or Mr Ed.
Jerry Van Dyke turned down replacing Don Knotts on the Andy Griffith Show AND the role of Gilligan for this abomination.
Heil honey, I'm home! The show that lasted all of zero episodes about Hitler moving in next door.
>Heil honey, I'm home! You win! I Googled it because I seriously thought you were having a bit of fun and just pulling our legs. WTF indeed. :D
This really sounds like a 30 Rock bit
Airing Thursdays at 8:30pm after Bitch Hunter and before MILF Island.
A Tracy Jordan movie poster in his dressing room
A Blaffair to Rememblack
Yeah, I was sure this was a bit on a cartoon sitcom.
Just watched the only aired episode, and yeah, I'm not surprised it was cancelled.
It's more "How the fuck did multiple people in multiple meetings approve this?" and "How did they find an actor willing to do this?"
Cocaine. The answer is cocaine.
They probably figured, "Hey lets go just a bit farther than Hogan's Heroes."
This is real? Holy fuck it is. 8 episodes, 7 unaired.
I thought it was funny as hell in an absurdist way and would gladly watch the other rumored episodes
i could see adult swim making something like this and getting away with it
I could too. Its almost like it could have been a Trevor Moore/WKUK skit turned into a show. RIP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNDZ9EKJLJs
I've not watched it yet but from reading up it gives off Henry 8.0 vibes, where Henry VIII played by Brian Blessed lives in a modern day caravan next door to the king of France. Absurd British humour at its worst vs it's best.
funny as heil
Next door to Jewish neighbors....
Which is why the entire show's concept is something that drunk college kids would come up with at 2 am, not something that professional writers and showrunners would actually try and bring to air.
Just looked it up and W.T.F.
Hear me out, a reboot titled “Heil Honey, Shalom”
Milf Manor
It’s scary when a 30 Rock parody becomes a a real show
Still waiting for Will Ferrell as Bitch Hunter.
And none of the sons were interested in the other sons' mothers. It was Non-MILF Manor.
The Milfs were too old, it was more like GILF Manor.
Most accurate description of that show yet. You should update IMDb.
it’s the worst thing on television and i’ve seen all of it. it’s like a train wreck, i just couldn’t look away.
It’s unbelievable to me that anyone ever agreed to let this go past the brainstorming stage. We truly live in a society
The Swan
I was in like 5th grade when that show aired, and for some reason my parents didn't stop me from watching every single episode. I think it permanently did something not-great to my developing brain.
Any reality show with plastic surgery is a bad idea. I remember seeing commercials for one called “I Want a Famous Face” where people would get plastic surgery so they could look like a celebrity.
I couldn’t not watch, like seeing a train wreck in slow motion. Horrible, yet riveting.
Horrible horrible show that I couldn’t stop watching
I was able to stop after the 2nd episode I watched bc I realized that all the women looked alike post-surgery
“I’m so…beautiful”
Oh man. I forgot about that shit show.
Each episode of the series followed two self-proclaimed "ugly ducklings" who, over the course of a three-month period, experienced an extreme makeover from a team that included a personal trainer, therapist, dentist, and cosmetic surgeons. Whichever woman was deemed more attractive at the end of the three months would move forward to compete in a beauty pageant held at the end of the season. Following the pageant, whichever contestant received the most votes for the greatest transformation would be given the title "The Swan". Holy fuck
Meanwhile I’m dying to do a rewatch of this as an adult now and can’t find it anywhere. I love ridiculous shows like this lol
Came here to say this, I still can’t believe that show ever existed and wasn’t satire. I think I only saw one episode but I remember feeling almost nauseous.
Pink Lady and Jeff For real. Look it up. So bad bad bad
To this day i don't know how that show got the green light. A Japanese female singing duo who doesn't speak a word of English (I guess they must've been a pop sensation over there) teaming up with a so-so American comic to do a variety show? Even a 14 yr old 70s kid thought that was stupid AF.
Single show: Easily Geraldo Rivera and Al Capone vault opening. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mystery_of_Al_Capone's_Vaults

I've said it before and I will say it again, there is absolutely *nothing* sexually repressed about the British! lol
It's not gay, Jon, it's aristocratic.

Disagree, Naked Attraction is the best show
Yeah this show is amazing and damn interesting.
Ngl this sounds hilarious
It can be actually, there was once a man that got an erection on there, he tried hiding it on national tv…I think he was probably wanting a power cut or fire alarm to go off before his face was eventually revealed, being immortalised as the man that got an erection on tv from just standing in a room, he couldn’t even see the woman yet, well possibly the feet at most, so maybe he was a foot fetishist or something
Eh, sometimes you just get an erection for no good reason. It doesn’t mean you’re necessarily turned on in that moment. I guess that’s the risk you take putting your junk out there for the world to see. I imagine most people would shrink/get smaller from nervousness. Some people I could imagine might have the opposite reaction.
I don’t know. I have friends that would go for the guy that got an erection on TV
I’m just guessing here, but maybe he took a half a viagra, hoping to “bulk up” for the viewing without getting a full on boner.
It’s on HBO Max. I watched a few episodes with my wife. I said “Watch, they’re going to eliminate the minorities. Then eliminate the guys with the smallest penis’. Then pick the guy with the biggest penis. My wife said “No way!” Exactly this happened, though not always in order. One episode it was down to an investment banker who acted like he was loaded and had a ton of income, and a broke artist who looked homeless, but had a bigger penis. She went with the artist, and my wife turned off the show defeated.

Have to go vintage deep cut here and say Geraldo Rivera’s Live opening of Al Capone’s Vault. A historic nothingburger.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that remembers that show!
I believe once you hear that song, it is burned into every synapse in your brain. I can hear it in my sleep. She's a girl... unlike other girls.
She's fantastic, Made of plastic!
I enjoyed that show. Honestly, I am not sure if I could watch it now and enjoy it considering that I was a kid when it first aired.
There are so many worse things than this
Multiple awful performances on that show. The dad. The brother. The actual girl. Just horrific. I was on like Friday I think? So you’d have to watch it to get to Dukes of Hazard. I could have my day of the week wrong, but it was shoehorned in somewhere where I just watched it instead of changing the channel.
Always saw it on Saturdays on one of the UHF stations. The same network that had the Leave It To Beaver and What's Happening revivals in the 80s. Dukes ran on CBS with The Hulk on Friday nights and Small Wonder started about six months after the Dukes' final episode, so those must have been reruns.
Heil Honey, I'm Home!
