Being a curmudgeon, I must hammer home the distinction between nonessential and awful; even though the overlap is significant, the list as it currently stands does a good job of making my case for me. Well, most remixes, remasterings, and re-releases do too, whether or not they make the list.

I take issue with this list, but only because it is far too short.

Hey ma, come quick! There's a guy on the internet telling some other guy on the internet that he could've just ignored something!

Overall, not impressed. Lots of predictable non-twists, and a lot of pacing issues where the camera lingered on stuff that could be seen coming from a mile away and around three corners. Doctor Who can get away with a few of those predictable non-twists, but not if they linger.

It must be covered in lead paint, and intersect with the part of the brain responsible for humor.

@avclub-749a8e6c231831ef7756db230b4359c8:disqus no, my mother did not give me a handjob. It was just a takedown of a shitty TV show; it wasn't my birthday or anything.

In the future, I think the AV Club should outline some rules about what kinds of shows are automatically disqualified from a "worst of" list. Under my version of the rules this would be one such show, because everything about it (other than the actual show itself - not to say that it isn't terrible, I believe you!)…

My mom loves it too. I finally went full-AV Club on her about it. In a shocking bit of symmetry between the internet and reality, my withering, impeccably-reasoned assault upon its myriad faults utterly failed to change her opinion.

If Whitney were actually human, she could be crushed by the lazy descent of a mid-sized feather. On the moon. Unfortunately, it appears as though she's got some of that there hollywood cockroach DNA.

Seconded, minus the "I liked it at first." Never before has such a shitty group of writers demonstrated such contempt for such a large audience.

If they ever made a "It's a Wonderful Life" parody involving the Foo Fighters, the running gag would be that everything is exactly the same, except, obviously, no Foo Fighters.

First you get the sugar…

"More like forty YARDS in the desert AMIRITE?"

D-bag an F, f-bag a D, close enough for jazz, baby.

Awesome entry, although I wouldn't have minded the instruments and backup tracks being a little lower in the mix; the vocal performance was clearly the centerpiece.

I vaguely recall a few scenes with the adopted girl's two pathetic friends that were laugh-worthy. Otherwise, this show made a strong argument-by-analogy for 5th trimester abortions.

I honestly have no clever response to your query, but I raise my fist in solidarity about Disqus.

You know, that kind of thing happened a lot in the Old Testament, even with the human characters. But don't read too much into it; after all it was two male lions.

Hrm, somebody in the police department murdering a bad guy…
