Bad shows and movies you enjoy watching.

There is something strangely calming about terrible, mid afternoon US sitcoms, like King of Queens, Rules of Engagement... that sort of thing. They are barely funny, stupidly cheesy at times and its hard to find them in any way entertaining, but you can really just veg out to them.

Daytime TV is made for this sort of thing, I mean I'm prone to tuning into Judge Judy as well.

True Blood before Billith was pretty amazing and awful at the same time.

It seemed to appear at a time where any new big tv show was a bit of an event and my quality control was a lot lower. If it came out today I'd dismiss it as absolute trash.. mainly as I imagine it would be some sort of lowly ranked Netflix show nobody talks about.

I don't know, the first season took itself pretty seriously and is legitimately enjoyable IMO.  It goes off the rails pretty quickly though.

I remember the first episode being pretty pornographic. It hinted at being a much cleverer and better show than it ever turned out to be.

You know, you nailed it. King of Queens is really fun to watch (at certain times).

Haha. I've never really understood the "guilty pleasure" thing when it comes to entertainment. I mean, it can be fun to watch something really terrible and make fun of it, but I don't want to spend much time watching things that aren't done well. Too many wonderful shows out there these days ;)

Watching Twilight has always given me a lot of laughs. And I mean A LOT OF laughs.

But, a testament to my bad taste...

Gossip Girl - A highschooler never dies inside of us :D

Charmed - I have done a rewatch of the old one and boy, was it hilarious. There were some great moments and several episodes were nicely done, but boy, when it sucked, it really sucked.

Melrose Place - for some reason, I spent beginning of this millennium watching this. And I remember I liked it.

Star Trek: Voyager - not necessarily bad, but every time someone says how boring or bad it is, I start arguing

Legend of the Seeker - this one was perfection and anyone who disagrees is completely wrong.

Desperate Housewives - this started as somewhat good, but somewhere in the middle it completely lost its direction. Needless to say, Bree VandeCamp remains my hero.

Revenge - Again, great premise, and I was hooked after couple of episodes but by the end, it was too much.

OK, so I admitted to more than I thought :D

What do I win?

I had been thinking on this for a couple days, and was coming here to post this as my answer. Only thing is it's one of my favorite movies from my childhood. And, is it really that bad a movie? I mean it was wore out by TBS ad nauseum. But, it is what it is, an 80's action movie. I never really thought it was any worse than any of the other sword films from that time period.

Yea, you win two ferrets, a black panther and a eagle. You're welcome.

Demolition Man is one I thought of recently.  It's the perfect amount of entertaining shittyness.  BTW, only gonna mention movies, not shows.  We basically already did this with shows about a month ago.
