What Iconic TV Show Do You Think Is Overrated?

Featured Replies

There are a lot of television shows that are considered iconic or really popular/important in terms of pop culture but... let's be honest: not all of them are actually that great. Which show do you think is overrated?

  • CB Team

Friends. I won't deny just how influential it was, but I really do think it's an extremely overrated show. I haven't actually watched the series but have caught a few episodes here and there as my fiancee rewatches it, and it just seems really overhyped and at times even problematic.

THANK YOU.

I have never, ever, ever liked or gotten the appeal of Friends.

Succession ... like Friends, it just seemed way over-hyped for the story and acting it was offering.

Lot of Friends hate here!! Rude

For me it's actually Seinfeld. I enjoy the show, but it gets held up as one of the best shows of all time, and for me it's just simply not.

Yeah ... Seinfeld was a great show but not TV-God Level status.

I knew Friends and Seinfeld would be the main discussion here 😂 I never really got into Friends either, but did watch Seinfeld a lot when I was a kid. I'm sure it's almost unwatchable by today's standards as are most series from that era.

I watched Seinfeld religiously. I genuinely do not know why now in retrospect.

It was probably good for the time and there was much less on TV to watch back then. It would only be background noise now.

It took me a while to like The Office, but then I loved it. I didn't like Season 1 when I first watched it, but it got better as it went.

I was adamantly opposed to The Office for really no good reason at all, and then when I finally sat down and watched it I absolutely loved it!

I came her to say this, but the comments held me down!
