What is Amanda Holden famous Apart from BGT where she judges other peoples talents despite the fact she has none herself.

[nickcastings]

I didnt believe there could ever have been ten worse comedies than Citizen Kahn or Mrs Browns boys, I stand corrected.

[wstine]

"Brighton Belles" proves that Britsh remakes of American shows can be just as bad as American remakes of British shows.

[andrewjones]

Mrs Brown's Boys is even worse than all these. Enjoying it relies heavily on finding a middle-aged man swearing whilst wearing a dress to be hilarious. I guess you didn't include it because it's inexplicably popular.

[shilohstore]

As an American going through the comments all I know for sure is the worst show is something called Miss Brown's Boys 😂

[TheRuddster]

The actor playing Hitler was in the legendary Father Ted lingerie episode 😂 "it's Ireland's biggest lingerie store I understand"

[JoeBleasdaleReal]

Amanda Holden AND Leigh Francis in the same show is the ultimate red flag

[dinodar]

“When you think of Davina Mcall, you remember she’s a great presenter” Speak for yourself

[lesleyhawes]

I am happy to say I missed all of these apparently dreadful " comedies ", so I can continue to bask in the memories of the hundreds of really good ones I've seen.

[lukebale]

I will defend Hardwick House after seeing the series on YouTube. The later unaired episodes are so much better than the ones shown and has a cameo from Rik and Ade as well so win win

[vcool]

The problem is when you use an actor like David Jason, it doesn't matter how good or well known Delboy was, if the script is unfunny, the actor will be unfunny. Having David Jason, won't make a TV show funny.

I liked Hard Cell🤓 There were a few parts that I thought went too far but I still found her show entertaining

[ZuluRomeo]

Does anyone remember a sitcom in the late 90s called Grown Ups? It’s not to be confused with a similarly named sitcom in the 2000s. It was about grown adults who were friends together and go through all the usual sitcom relationship tropes, but the conceit is that they all behaved like children.

It was awful. It only lasted some 6 episodes.

[JennA-uflo]

I want to know if anyone involved with “Heil Honey I’m Home” managed to keep their jobs, starting with the suit who greenlit it in the first place.

[vannessar]

Miranda and Mrs Brown's Boys takes some beating for unfunny rubbish.

[ZuluRomeo]

The most amazing thing about the Heil Honey disaster? It was only shown on Galaxy, a satellite TV channel run by British Satellite Broadcasting (a wannabe rival to Sky that ended up being consumed by it forming BSkyB).

Imagine being so bad that it was cancelled after 1 episode was shown on a long forgotten satellite TV channel that hardly anybody had access to and barely even knew about.

[brianfinlay]

All of these show are an example of what happens when you try to take a mildly amusing 2 minuets comedy sketch, and turn it into a tv show.

[giuseppeianniello]

Basically “Mrs. Brown’s Boys” is the parallel of “Teen Titans Go”

Both feature insulting characters and very dumb stories & writing, but for some reason it’s still on air disrespecting the audience

[markant]

The assistant director on "nan" is a friend of my sister and she said he told her Tate was a nightmare to work with, the ranger at my volunteer site said she would walk past him while he was working and scream and shout at ton sacks in the path, she`s an arse.
