Flip That House: I watched a couple of times. I never saw a house flipped…or even un-pimped.
Pinks: What a huge disappointment. The title made it sound so good, too!
Unique Whips: See above.

"Flip This House" is infinitely better than "Flip That House"
especially the Charleston SC team, who are currently suing A&E and getting a show on a different network

I am proud to say that I believe I am one of the few humans who has NEVER watched one minute of Survivor or American Idol. There's far more productive things I could do . . . . like ram my head against a wall & such . . . .

I tried to watch Ugly Betty, and found it sucky.

Survivor: too infomercial.
Ugly Betty: too camp.
American Idol: the musicologist in me watches this as fieldwork. What makes music bad can be just as fascinating as what makes music good.

Every single show on TV, with the exception of a few Comedy Central shows, is horrendous.

I agree with PigIron!
However, I love Reno 911. It makes me wish that I had cable tv.

Don't even get me started on American Idol and it's perpetuating total crap pop in America. What is wrong with people when they'll accept Clay Aiken and Chris Daughtry?
Terrible.

Listen Up
Lucky Louie
Newer Scrubs, which I swear was funny at one time.
I don't think most of what's mentioned has been disappointing, so much as plain terrible. did you have high hopes that American Idol would be good?

new scrubs is still alright. it seems like they left the random kind of comedy and went a little more serious. but its still one of the best shows on tv.

I'd have to say almost all shows, in my opinion, are pretty disappointing, except for the Simpsons (which has ebbed and flowed over the years, but is still solid entertainment) and The Office, which is still comedic gold.
I used to be a Lostie, but they lost me with their shitty writing.
And for no other reason, SNL gets my temporary and fleeting respect for Dick in a Box.

Lost is so disappointing. The first season was so amazing. .

When I saw the three shows you think are disappointments I thought how anyone could anyone think they wouldn't be disappointments. Then I saw the rationale. Hilarious.
Desperate Housewives has been a huge disappointment the past two seasons. It was delted from the season pass last night. Scrubs has not been as good either. Moving to the Thrusday line-up is when it should be stellar.
The only other shows I watch are The Office, Extras and The Daily Show.

renton 007 understands me.
This is, clearly, a person of taste.
