20 TV Shows People Watched Every Week Only to Realize They Totally Sucked

Listen, we’ve all made mistakes when we were younger, and for some of us, “when we were younger” was 2022. Maybe you made some unfortunate fashion choices that left you with a closet full of unwearables. Maybe some poor investments, chiefly in the energy drink/body spray combo sector, did a number on your credit score. You definitely kissed some people who would physically repulse you today.

Most of all, you almost certainly had terrible taste. Bless their hearts, but there's a reason we mock media made for teenagers — their hormones cloud their sense of artistic evaluation. Maybe you exited the womb espousing the merits of prestige TV, but it’s more likely you were enmeshed in some trash sitcom you couldn’t be paid to watch today.
