Strongly Recommended Netflix Shows That Turned Out to Be Horrible

There are some shows that always seem to be in the most popular section of the streaming app that just don’t resonate with some audiences. We’ve all turned on an episode of a highly rated show only to find out that everything from the acting to the dialogue is terrible.

But to each their own! Some people really enjoy all of the shows listed below, and other people would only count them among their guiltiest of pleasures. One thing is for sure though, these shows have definitely polarized their audiences.

“Pretty Little Liars”

“So no one has said this, but Pretty Little Liars.

my girlfriend at the time said it was the best show and what not. the plot is ridiculous, their clothing and makeup would never be allowed at a school, a bunch of 16 year old girls surely cannot have so many secrets that they can be blackmailed to such an extent.

the police cannot be so ineffective and stupid. There cannot be sone crazy stalker person thats getting off on tormenting the lives of a bunch of teenagers and their friends.

In saying all that, its my guilty pleasure and i love watching it for the exact reasons i pointed out, as well as pointing out those reasons its a [bad] show.” – Reddit / skylmingakappi

“I feel exactly the same way. I’m binging my way through it so I can finally find out the answers to the mysteries yet I often find myself getting frustrated with how they behave. It’s ludicrous that they wouldn’t reach out to an adult through all of this. But still I watch…” – Reddit / kalo56

“The L Word”

“The L Word. I watched two full seasons to give it a chance.

SO BORING. EVERYONE CHEATS ON EACH OTHER. THE END.

And for what it’s worth, I am a lesbian lady myself and still found the show boring as hell. Just wasn’t my thing.” – Reddit / Raediv

“You forgot to mention: all straight women are straight until they encounter a lesbian.

Case in point: Shane shows up at a house to do hair for a bridal party, only to be chased around by the lusting bride, her mother, and the bridesmaids like they were zombies pining for live flesh.” – Reddit

“Scandal”

“Scandal. I can’t enjoy it cause I feel like everyone is over-acting” – Reddit / labradorz

“Scandal: if you’re angry and self-righteous enough, you can make a loud speech and then everything goes your way.” – Reddit / CleverBandName

“the part that grinds my gears so much is her APARTMENT.. she’s been kidnapped from there, others have been kidnapped from there, it’s been broken into countless amounts of times, national televsion has broadcast her building, paps have hounded her there multiple times… yet the president with SS shows up there all the time (super safe??) and she’s lived there throughout the entire series…. MOVE AND MAYBE ALL THIS STUFF WOULDNT HAPPEN” – Reddit / definitewhitegirl

“C.S.I. Cyber”

“C.S.I Cyber. It was/is terrible,I cringigly watched 3 eps but couldn’t take any more after that. Recommended by an acquaintance whose advice I wont be following again any time soon.” – Reddit / sorfak

“Quick tag their packets and we’ll track them back through the intertubes using this handheld packet sniffer, hackers call it pinging them.” – Reddit / bigschmitt

“I like to imagine that character is just highly lazy and uses techno babble to obfuscate their passing off 15 minutes of work and 3.75 hours of web browsing as 4 hours of work.” – Reddit / funkyb
