"The School House"

Quote
An episode of the short-lived 1949 television series "The School House". This show was a flop in the rating and was also panned by reviewers. They thought that while the cast was talented, the script and production values were poor. To be honest, this show doesn't seem that bad. It could be worse.

It's OK for it's time... (the "worst" from '49 is better than the best from the past decade  Roll Eyes )

The worst from the early years of television? IMHO, overly creepy kiddie shows (that probably inspired horror film screenwriters & authors) that featured wooden puppets ("Howdy Doody") & clowns ("Super Circus")!

I'm still trying to think of anything that might rival "Turn On" as the worst TV show of all time.

"Skins" is officially cancelled

"Perfect Couples" wasn't the worst show I've seen but it was pretty bad.  The only thing good about it was Olivia Munn.

"Wilfred"

Cheesy and boring


The whole pet is smarter than it's owner is very much common in comic strips & animation.

It's pretty much a combination of those silly gimmicky sitcoms from the 1960's with farfetched premises (ie "Mr. Ed") and modern shows (ie "Two and a Half Men").

It features Elijah Wood as a single man who hangs around a dog (a man in a costume) that gives advice on him hooking up with it's owner...

Oh yeah, that's got "success" written all over it.  Roll Eyes  It's hard to believe that some TV executive got millions to come up with that idea too.  I might not be a genius but I think I could come up with better show ideas than that.

Guns N' Roses Turn Down 'Glee' Offer

Posted on Jan 18th 2011 4:00PM by Brian Voerding

The cast members of 'Glee' won't be heading to Paradise City anytime soon.

Guns N' Roses have reportedly turned down the hit show's request to feature their songs, according to Entertainment Weekly. In a Sunday interview with the magazine, Slash said didn't give details on how the band voted, but made it clear that if it were solely up to him, he'd rather be watching 'Grease.'

"In the current climate of what's going on in entertainment these days, I try to be more optimistic than negative because it's really easy to get negative about it, but I draw the line at 'Glee,'" he said.

"When 'Grease' came out I was like, 'Oh, c'mon, give me a break,'" Slash, who's currently touring with Ozzy Osbourne, said. "Actually, I look at 'Grease' now and think (that) between 'High School Musical' and 'Glee,' 'Grease' was a brilliant work of art."

Guns N' Roses are one of just a handful of high-profile musical acts to decline the invitation. Coldplay and Kings of Leon have passed on the show, but given that Glee becomes more of a cultural juggernaut every week, both have been rumored to be reconsidering the offer.

Slash  recently did a song for "Phineas & Ferb", a kids' cartoon that airs on Disney Channel (home of "Hannah Montana" & "High School Musical").

Though just noticed about it, found a news article.


I find it ironic since "Phineas & Ferb" is owned by Disney, which are known for having animated movies that are musicals (some even made it onto Broadway). Also the show has musical numbers on every episode. Granted they're nothing like   "Beauty & The Beast", but more in tone of the music videos on  "The Looney Tunes Show" (not confused with the superior originals).

I feel like a freak sometimes because I've never seen a single episode of "Glee."

"Toddlers & Tiaras"

Among the lowest of the low. Not to mention disturbing.

"Pop-Up Video", never really understood the appeal and have heard that many of the facts aren't true, most tend to be random/not relevant to the song/artist, the "pop-up" noises are distracting, and also the novelty tends to wear off fast.

They put in one of those pop ups that Deborah was going out with a member of the Back Street Boys and it wasn't true.

"Lassie"

The only positive attribute is that it makes good use for parody.

There was a show that had Julie Brown in it (not Downtown Julie Brown) that also lasted only one episode.

"The Real World" signaled the beginning of the end for a certain cable network when it premiered on May 21, 1992...

That was definitely the moment where MTV jumped the shark.
