A Reddit user asked ‘What show is overrated but is treated like a masterpiece?’ and here are 30 of the responses.

Bust out the downvotes folks: The Super Bowl.
No continuity. They keep changing the main characters every god damn year, the central romantic arc between Tom Brady & everyone on Earth got stale real quick. Weirdest laugh track of any show on this list, guaranteed. The lack of female representation is beyond cringe.
Besides Tom Brady there isn’t a single female character for almost 30 seasons.
But the final straw for me was the way they killed off Kaepernick, finally get a character with real substance & kill him off b/c cancel culture has no f**king boundaries.
Ugh.

The walking dead is something that always baffled me how it went beyond ~2 seasons.
They had the same loop of storyline repeated in every season – they run, they find shelter, they go out for food, someone gets bitten, they get overrun, they have to find somewhere new. Rinse and repeat for like 10 seasons.

Greys anatomy – that show just needs to end.
4.
How I Met Your Mother. Every episode glorifies Ted’s toxic behavior and makes it look romantic. I get so triggered watching that show
5.
If no one else will say it, I will. Squid game is WAY overhyped. I’ve seen people say it’s the best Netflix show or even the best Korean show. If people give other Asian media a chance they’ll find way better than automatically assuming that the first Asian show they see on Netflix is the best thing ever.

Most doctor/hospital shows. They can be ok for a while but they get predictable quickly and run for way too long.
7.
The Big Bang Theory
I cannot stress this enough.

Game of thrones hands down, it left good threads hanging but never really stitched them into anything.
10.
Gilmore Girls. Rory is a horrible person
