Melrose Place. just... shoot me :P

Police Squad. . .or maybe that should be in the first thread of this.

I loved it but it was also sort of a one-note song.

oh wait, reading comprehension... Melrose Place survived for faaar too long. I remember watching it through the first season going "why... why am I watching this drivel? why?"

My Secret Girlfriend on Comedy Central. At least I hope it's gone for good.

"My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss", the best (a VERY relative term) of Fox's "Fake Reality Shows". The show was pulled halfway through (without choosing a 'winner' or revealing the identity of the 'secret boss') and the left over episoides were tossed onto Fox's website. But I was rewarded for my loyalty to that guilty pleasure when I got to write about the unseen finale as a "guest expert" in msnbc.com's Reality TV Blog (scroll down). Any trainwreck you can walk away from WITH A PAYCHECK is not so bad. But I haven't volunteered to watch-and-write-about any show I hate since, which severely reduced my income but increased my sanity, so I have no more recent examples.

I guess I must confess that, as a kid, I ENJOYED "My Mother The Car", rated the 2nd Worst TV Series Of All Time after Jerry Springer, and now available on Hulu where I realized it REALLY WAS as bad as they say (but not because of Jerry VanDyke who got a bad rap).

Two words: COP ROCK. Oh my sweet lord.

Cop Rock was great.

The 2009 Cupid. I'd like to blame my ex-girlfriend. Yes, yes, I'll do that!

There was a TV show version of "A League of Their Own". Horrendous.

Californication. It's about a bunch of middle-aged people with all the impulse control, pretentions and intellectual depth of first-year university students. Everytime I watch an episode, I swear I'll never watch another. But somehow I do wind up doing it anyway, and I know I'll watch season four, as I want to find out what happened now that the Hank/Mia thing is out of the bag.

Poochinski! There's only one episode (also available on Youtube) and it is so great and so terrible. "You're a dog!" "I'M A COP!"

Also I was about to overreact about danf saying Police Squad but on reflection I decided yeah, it wasn't awful but would have overstayed its welcome quickly.

The Millionaire Matchmaker. Since I caught a mini marathon Saturday morning that hypnotized me, what a trainwreck of a show, you can't look away. They will let some of the creepiest people date perfectly wonderful people for money and the dating world is so bizarre in the first place. The finale's tonight and I am there.

The 2009 Cupid.

Oh god yes. It was all the worse for crapping all over a beloved original.

Average Joe, the dating reality show. I am so, so ashamed I watched a season of this.

If we're talking shows that only lasted a few episodes, I wish I still had a recording of the Emeril sitcom.

The episode summaries give one a good sense of what it was like.
