if you're in the mood to hate watch a piece of film/animated media, what's your go-to?

mine?

a brutal, but necessary experience to refresh the soul and cleanse the toxins from your humors.

a close runner up would probably be that stupid kevin bacon serial killer show .... I can't remember its name tho.

The House of the Dead movie by Uwe Boll.

I highly recommend turning on The Bachelor and just listening to it. If you watch it, you can get distracted by the pretty people and pretty locations. By just listening to it, you really get to experience awfulness on a different level. It's not just the rote, insepid things the air heads have to say .. it's the production choices of when to play music cues, the awkward things the host is forced to say, the "teases" for whatever drama they invented. It's the living embodiment of 50 years of bad television cliches all in one package.

I forgot Lost. That was a retrospective hatewatch. Well, it fell apart before that, but I still kind of enjoyed it.

Actually, let me stop fronting. I finished all 8 seasons Dexter even though I mentally checked out like 3 seasons prior.

HyperZoneWasAwesome · « **Reply #13 on:** September 30, 2015, 01:30:15 PM »

Holee Shit did Prison Break shit the bed. Lasted four seasons but they ran out of good ideas before the first one was even through.

I still can't believe I pushed myseslf to watch all of Dexter. I had stopped right after season 5 with a more or less high opinion of the show (season five was naff, but forgivable up to that point), watching the last three seasons consecutively within a two week span should have killed all the good taste I had left.

I don't know that I technically hatewatch anything. The bad things I watch I actually like them even though I recognize they are bad. True Detective Season 2 is something I hate watched but I didn't enjoy the experience at all and never ever would watch it again.

I guess Walking Dead would fall into this category for me as I know I will continue to watch it but I'm very mixed on it at all times.

I'd label my stuff guilty pleasure instead of hatewatch.

The Ship on TNT is a good guilty pleasure. It's absolutely terrible from a logical perspective and I understand why a normal person wouldn't waste two seconds on it, but its so dumb it crosses back over into being entertaining. I mean look at this nonsense.

There is another show called younger where this clearly middle aged women pretends to be a young twenty something to get a job. It's ridiculous and utterly unbelievable and frankly condescending. But its also fun to watch. It's like a female version of entourage.

I do this with The Economist.

If I was independently wealthy I'd just read ancient issues and mine for gems. I'm reliably informed that they wrote charming things about the Irish Potato Famine.

I have only watched it once, but Avatar by Cameron would probably qualify. Happy Feet maybe, the ending to that got me mad as hell.

I don't really get hatewatching but if I were to hatewatch, I suppose it'd be Entourage, anything with Guy Fieri in it, Girls, Californication, How I Met Your Mother, and anything made by Aaron Sorkin.

One of the most baffling sports success stories. At least Cowherd put on some tough guy posturing, the Sports Dork didn't even want to talk about sports half the time.

Was severely disappointed by season 2's swing from godawful to simply mediocre, and delighted by season 3 kicking it back into full on "i dont get kids" Sorkin coke rants.

All time is The Walking Dead. I've seen every episode and I've hated every second of it. It's Under The Dome level awful writing and acting, and every season/half season follows the exact same arc.

You're mistaking all his tortured metaphors and references to 1980s/1990s films for non-sports talk.

I tried to hatewatch Gotham, but on top of being terrible it was too boring so I quit two episodes and a half in.

I don't really hatewatch stuff because I have amazing tolerance, but until the end of the first season I sometimes wondered if the writers had given up on Gotham.

But man, if you compressed the first season into like three episodes and then had the first two episodes of THIS season. And eliminated the Bruce Wayne/Gordon plotline completely. You'd be working with gas.

"24" was a hate-watch for me, though by s3 they got rid of the two characters I most wanted to die, so I said "thanks" and never looked back. (Even during explosions)

I'll admit I watched that show for a while, but I think that's when the hate started to overtake.

Jackass 2 in 06 was probably the most I laughed in a movie theater, along with Borat that same year.

VH1 in the mid 2000s:

cky was fun when i was a 20-something in college but seeing these dudes still going at it at in their 30s just makes me sad.

oh and flavor of love is fucking amazing. especially the ep where that chick shit on the stairs. i guess a related hate watch would be that terrible 'bitches living in a mansion together' show on oxygen. edit: the bad girls club.

I am super-done with "24." The brit who played the terrorist was so over the top cheesy, I can't even watch him in anything, either.
