Not sure what you are talking about but I get the impression this post was directed at me for some reason. Actually, it was to Painkiller. Sorry. I forgot to quote.

You would let obsessive fandom turn you off completely from a show? Rabid fanboys annoy me too, but I don't hate most of the shows the drool over. Doctor Who is one of my favorite tv shows. If you hate it, I can't say that doesn't make me a bit sad inside, but I would hope that you hate it for legitimate reasons rather than just for the fact that some people obsess over it. No, I hate it because the Doctor seems like a twit, the acting seems average at best, plot devices solve everything and the whole show just bores me. This is just my opinion, but whatever. It's perfectly fine, if I can't see how good the show apparently is, that's my loss, right? I can respect that. Doctor Who is one of my very favorite shows, and, to be entirely honest, I disagree completely with just about everything you said about the show (minus the plot device thing. Yeah, they kinda do that a lot...), but I'm not one of the quintessential fanboy types who takes personal offense to alternative opinions. I'm just glad you've apparently given the show enough of a chance to dislike it for your own reasons.

A lot of people still like Once Upon A Time. I watched most of the first season and didn't have the patience to keep going with it. It's just so incredibly slow-paced. I've tried watching both Deathnote and Full Metal Alchemist. I didn't like either of them. Also Arrow. It really just kinda sucks. I really wanted to like it, but I just couldn't.
For the vice versa side, I really like X-Men Evolution and My Little Pony.

You know what show will never end up on this thread? Revolution. That show... everyone hates that show.

Like X-Men 3, Spider-Man 3, and the Star Wars prequels. I see their numerous flaws and I realize they all pretty much suck, but I like them anyway.

X-Men 3 would have been fine if they didn't try to cram enough for 3 movies into one.

I just can't stand Andrea to the point I had to quit. Same. I found Michonne boring, as well. The only characters I liked were Glen, Daryl and Merle.

The show didn't really grab me either. Most of my friends on FB that watch the show are posers that don't read the comic.
The comic is miles ahead of the show IMO.

Ugh... The only thing that makes it worth even talking about is Ellen Page. Separate movies would eliminate the screen time for all of those minor characters. The core X-Team was pretty solid in the film with Wolverine, Storm, Beast, Colossus, Shadowcat and Iceman.

Still crippled by the director though. There is absolutely 0% doubt in my mind that everyone performed at sub-par acting levels. It is like the 3rd movie took place in "Ham Land" and everyone was acting like they were in a Chinese comedy crossed with 80s action movie, with how bad they were overacting. Hugh Jackman is the perfect measuring stick for it too. Compare his acting in the first two to that one. It is almost like the role is performed by different actors (Maybe Hugh found his drunk double a la Prestige?). Extending that horrible display for two or three movies would have taken me from enraged to suicidal.

I'm not a big fan of One Piece, either.
