    I never gave it much chance, but was bored by what I saw of it.

    Oprah
    Sally Jesse Raphael

    Hmm, five worst TV shows EVER...

    1) 700 Club (any televangelist really)
    2) SURVIVIOR (Any Reality TV actually)
    3) Anything with Krappy Lee Gifford (Actually)
    4) Quantum Leap (Liked Bakula actually)
    5) Strip Mall

    Okay, I admit that maybe limiing this to the five worst TV shows ever was a little limiting and besides all I used as my selection was Science-Fiction. With great pleasure I inflict upon you the 5 worst TV shows of all time, in no particular order.

    -Neighbours: incredibly cheesy, Australian soap.
    -Bear in the Big Blue House: Caught about 15 seconds (about 16 seconds to much) of the opening titles this morning and thought "Bl***y hell!, what is this crapola".
    -Jerry Springer: One really, incredibly bad program.
    -Any episode of SeaQuest without Michael Ironside in it.
    -Mortal Kombat Conquest: 25 episodes of crap with quite possibly the most bizarre last episode of a show since the Prisoner (we're getting canned, let's kill everyone).

    The problem with Babylon 5 was, you had to see (nearly) every single episode to follow the 5 (?) season story arc.

    Some of the worst:

    Farscape
    the one about the fire fighters (70s I think)
    Chips (California Highway Patrol)

    .....!?

    Why the H... did I ever watch these !!!

    When thinking of B5, just do what I do, IGNORE SEASON 5!!!!!! Worst season, made no sense and was completly disjointed from the rest of the series.

    Probably 'Emergency' if the characters were Gage and Desoto.
    'Code Red' if it was a very short series (not totally sure about this one).

    I liked the Eagles, the Mk 9 Hawk and a lot of the model work. Acting could be stiff (Barbara Bain and molasses in January come to mind) and second season writing left a lot to be desired (What Irwin Allen type creature is Maya turning into this week). I view the first season a lot like ST:TNG and ST S9 first seasons, not quite there but showing potential.

    My nominees for the mindless drivel award:
    Married with Children
    Unhappily Ever After
    Who's the Boss?
    90210
    The Dukes of Hazzard

    Cleopatra 2525 gets an honorable mention for the worst TV episode that I couldn't stop watching. It held the same kind of gruesome fascination as a train wreck. I just had to watch to see how badly the writers could screw up a concept that was really awful to begin with.

    I watched Airwolf, and read a magazine article once that explained that the Helos frame couldnt do any of the following
    1) carry the guns/missles shown
    2) carry the ammo for said systems
    3) carry the computer system shown

    not to mention the silly mach2 crap :-)

    I'll limit my 5 worst to shows that are "sci-fi-ish" and recent.

    5) Buffy the Vampire Slayer
    4) Angel
    3) V.I.P.
    2) Roswell
    1) Yoyager
