Of everything you've seen on the boob-tube, what do you believe is the worst of television?

Sheesh quite a few come to mind, will pop a few on, and on the "Best of" thread ASAP.
Think "Married with Children" would be near the top of the list for starters.

Jerry Springer - It celebrates stupidity and undignified behavior.

Second that Siren, I'd throw "The Maury Povich Show" in there right alongside it.
*shakes head in bewilderment*

Agreed, kat. Maury's really just as bad.

I agree with all of the above, (it's hard to believe Jerry Springer was once Cincinnati's City Manager). I'll add to the list of "stupidity and undignified behavior"....
"The Osbournes"
VH1's "The Rock of Love"

I detect a pattern here. So many of the "reality" shows, which often are as scripted and predestined as regular shows, have no redeeming values.

Hopefully these type of shows have just about run their cycle, though I guess if they're cheap to produce and pull an audience we'll always be plagued with them.
One here called "Big Brother" has just bitten the dust after six or eight years of mind numbing badness, with any luck it's the beginning of the end, but I wouldn't bet on it though.
