Worst 10 TV Shows of 2006

What's a best list without a worst list? With every 1 great show, there are at least 100 bad ones. I'm only going to focus on 10 shows that I've hated to watch, or hated that they were even on the air in the first place.

10. Deal Or No Deal Howie Mandel hosts a show that requires no skill, no strategy, and no thought whatsoever. All it has is really annoying contestants screaming, ripoff "Who Wants to Be A Millionaire" lights, and a catchphrase "Deal Or No Deal!!!" shouted at the top of his lungs. I really don't understand how anyone can watch a show totally based on chance. I should create a show based on the lottery and have people pick random numbers and a huge ball drops out the numbers to see if they win. I'll just make sure a hot chick drops the numbers.

9. Six Degrees Everyone on this show is related to each other in some way, whether it be a chauffeur drives around a lawyer who is defending a woman who knows the chauffeur's brother and is a nanny to the lawyer's friend...it sounds interesting, but since it feels like "Felicity" but with adults, it sort of doesn't work. I don't believe adults have this much time to whine about relationships. Which brings me to...

8. Brothers and Sisters It's like thirtysomething with actors you've seen before! And some actors from thirtysomething! Sally Field is in it, which means we're in for constant crying and emotional scenes. I've never seen so many overwrought rich white people complain about so much on television...without it being campy.

7. Men In Trees Ally McBeal in Alaska, basically. The character tries to be cutesy-quirky but ends up patronizing and over-the-top irritating. It's like she's living in a snow globe where everything is just so "quaint, but rustic." I know women are supposed to like this, but the women I know would be sorry to know that to land a man you should move to Alaska and be afraid of raccoons and birds and act helpless.

6. Charmed I have always HATED this show, I watch it sometimes because I hate it so much. The range of acting is sarcastic, bordering on bitchy. And I can't take Alyssa Milano seriously, ever. And whose acting gets worse after Melrose Place? Though I bet Rose McGowan could power a small village if they could harness her eye-rolls into a power source.

5. 20 Good Years "I AM JOHN LITHGOW AND I AM ACT-ING!" This show is so embarrassing it's sad. Two old guys trying to relive their glory years. It makes me so sad.

4. Grey's Anatomy McDreamy, McSteamy, McMeany...This show makes me McSick to my McStomach and I could McHeave. I'm glad I moved from Seattle because I would be scared to hurt myself in fear of being treated by these self-centered doctors. Though I bet if I had to use the bathroom at Seattle Grace I would run into doctors having sex in the stall next to me. The show itself is definitely emotionally draining, plus the adding of the indie music for interludes must go. Meredith must go.

3. The View Rosie O'Donnell is a braying idiot, but she is entertaining. I just wish they had someone with some news experience on that show. Barbara isn't there very much, so the remaining women ride on their uneducated opinions. I've turned on this show to get my fill of muddled yammering over each other. Who would have thought Joy Behar would be the sane one on the show?

2. teachers. I believe I'm the only one who saw this show, and for good reason. I honestly don't know how anyone thought this show was funny, amusing, or had good characters. The lead guy was the retarded brother in "Gigli" which should have been a reason NOT to cast him. But this show seemed to be one of those "Sum of it's parts" shows, meaning the individual characters should be funny + school makes funny + cute star + cute girl love interest= funny sitcom! But the problem is they forgot the chemistry between the characters!

1. The Rachael Ray Show Anyone who uses the phrase "yum-o" must die. And what's with EVOO? Is it such a pain to say "Extra Virgin Olive Oil?" You're saving what, one second? Yeah, that'll make me cook faster. Rachael Ray is so perky and obnoxious I feel like she's a little too familiar with the audience. I thought about joining the "I Hate Rachael Ray" fan club, but that would require me keeping tabs on her whereabouts, and I would rather just avoid her altogether.
