I'm going to go with the Brady Bunch.

Always disliked the show and hated Cousin Oliver (the character, I liked Robbie Rist.)

He's not cute, anymore, but sounds like he may be a liberal; he calls Clear Channel an evil company.

9. Everybody Loves Ramond.
How the world's least funny man makes the most money per episode and continues to win emmys is one of those mindboggling puzzles of the ages.

I know it's going away in a couple of weeks forever, but the onslaught on syndication is going to be pure murder. Other than that one, I suggest Fear Factor, Survivor, Big House, or any one of a dozen stupid, idiotic, self-aggrandizing "reality" shows.

I never understood why people like to see/hear others be made fun of intentionally.

19. CNN's "Crossfire"
That show serves no purpose whatsoever. It's "The Jerry Springer Show" of "news" panel discussions. People screaming at each other. When CNN reformatted this show, with the studio audience and the screaming, it turned into "The Howard Beale Show" from the movie "Network".

I'd rather watch 30 minutes of dead air than "Crossfire"
