[@kristashafer93098]

The ghastly, unforgivable way they ended “Dinosaurs”! Dark, bleak, depressing. The series had been so silly, goofy, and fun.

[@flexivefowl8186]

I'll never forgive The Office writers for destroying Andy's character.

[@Xone9]

I was so done with Andy in the final season, to the point where I was actually glad Erin ended up with Pete instead.

[@ottosixtysix8546]

The show when they added Andy was so bad, it was the last one I watched. Does the term " beat a dead horse" apply?

[@Miguel-mp7uz]

​@@ottosixtysix8546it might if you actually used the correct version of the phrase.

[@codyhiginbotham6616]

I know that Ed Helms had to temporarily leave The Office because he was filming The Hangover Part III, but the writers didn’t have to just flat out ruin Andy like that

[@jonathanfitzharris4196]

Maybe just me but Ross's inner monologue during the cousin scene is hilarious!

[@mennaayman9689]

The episode with the wedding invitation was worse. it was the most boring episode of friends. The cousins thing is actually normal in many cultures around the world including mine, which I know is outlandish and gross to Amercians. lol.

[@fanofpink]

Damn it Lois. Malcolm could've worked his way into being a top level CEO and then became President. I hated this so much she constantly threw Malcom under the bus. Even worse where some people said she was right to do this.

[@adamzmuda5419]

That was pretty much Lois`s biggest flaw in the series: Having to win every argument and getting things to go her way no matter what anyone else thought or felt.

[@Nicholasmcmath-cr1xl]

Same I with you I hate how Lois treated Malcolm too

[@MegaWicked89]

17:07 This is going to sound highly controversial but, I actually liked the series finale of "Seinfeld". Because when you stop to think about it, the four main characters were just a bunch of horrible people behaving really really badly!

[@jasonmercer5779]

The Charlie Home Alone episode was one of my favorites.🤣

[@MeaganEarls]

It doesn't belong here.

[@trinaq]

Since the last few seasons were spent showing how incompatible Ted and Robin were, it felt like a slap in the face to all of the fans to shove them together at the last minute.

[@JamailvanWestering]

They were more compatible than man child Barney and Robin. They had more inside jokes than them. Ted was going to pretty much leave NY because of them… Also let’s not forget how Ted introduces Robin to his kids in the very first moment of the pilot… Now call me crazy but that’s now how you introduce your ex to your kids…

[@tolliSTFU]

By the time the series finale came, they had already messed up so many relationships that I couldn't care less whether they ended up together or not. To be honest it was probably a blessing in disguise that Tracy was written off because they probably would ruin her too

[@trinaq]

Whoever greenlit "Heil Honey, I'm Home", must have had to much faith in such a tasteless premise.

[@meduseldtales3383]

They probably watched The Producers and figured it would work as well in real life too.

[@gfear24]

The thing is, it was green lit in not one, but two countries. England and the US. Both didn't last one season.

[@doggosho3044]

It would work better as a short comedy sketch, end it with Hitler being killed

[@yoanastoyanova]

@@gfear24 Allo, Allo is also a Nazi satire but it's fantastic, and was quite successful. It can be done well, it seems like Heil Honey just wasn't

[@Boaz833]

I thought the Seinfeld finale was perfect. They are held accountable for their "crimes" or sins, but even that had no effect on them as they continued to drivel on senselessly about meaningless things, showing that they will never change.

[@YourCreepyUncle.]

George Michael punching his dad is not "widely inconsistent" with their relationship. It's pretty clear from the first three seasons that GM became increasingly disillusioned with his dad as he got older, due the fact that Michael never truly listened to him. The show even addresses this head on. So a college-aged GM punching his dad when the latter does something unforgivable is perfectly in-character.

[@kristashafer93098]

The Dr. Nora episode of Frasier was HILARIOUS! But I do have 2 big biases at play here. One is that I absolutely frigging LOVE Christine Baranski. She’s a massive powerhouse! Comedy, drama, singing, dancing!! The other is that I utterly DESPISE “Dr.” Laura. She’s smug and sanctimonious. Being forced to listen to her was the worst part of an otherwise enjoyable temp job I had. My supervisor was a fan. She told me “You either love her, or you hate her. There’s no in between.” It took listening for just a few minutes to realize that I hated her.

[@meduseldtales3383]

From modern point of view, the most disgusting scene in Friends is when Ross pretends to be a licensed masseur, so that a sexy woman whom he has never met before, would undress and let him touch her body.

[@jim1242]

it was hilarious, . also funny when he prentended a boy in a doctors waiting room was his son, but it turned out it was the son to women he was hitting on

[@reneewatters7182]

George Michael's dad was asking for that punch for years tho 😂

[@adamzmuda5419]

For the finale to Seinfeld, the four characters should have been released soon after due to a juror violating sequestration rules (which is what "Curb Your Enthusiasm" did with Larry after he got convicted, as he ends up later telling Jerry they should have done this idea with the Seinfeld finale).

[@vaibanez17]

Yeah but Larry did that on purpose because he was trying to make up for that terrible Seinfeld ending

[@clevelandphil]

The man from The IT Crowd responds with violence? The transbird hit him first.

[@clevelandphil]

Worst one was on Moesha wants a car, namely a jeep. Her father buys her an expensive sports car and Moronesha is hurt.

[@thor2003]

I was most annoyed by the episode in “Friends” where Joe demands everyone to buy him a new refrigerator, the scriptwriters wrote his character as a complete jerk.

[@DXKramer]

A LOT of the stuff Ross did on "Friends" was cringe.

[@annearly3200]

Louis was wrong. Malcolm has already suffered from being poor and struggling for everything didn't need tru out his adult life as well.

[@Miguel-mp7uz]

I do t remember a louis

[@Agemus6139]

It’s always sad to me that so many were too stupid to realize that HIMYM was about Ted’s love of Robin and his guilt about it. If you didn’t figure it out by the season one finale that the mom was dead, that’s on you, not the writers. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@TheGeekzNetwork]

What about in children’s sitcoms like Drake & Josh with the worst episode being The Theater Thug? What really pissed everyone off about that episode is that even when Josh caught the real thug, the cops still mistakenly arrested Josh for the real thug & let the real thug escape. 😡 we get it, Josh can be a lot & a jerk sometimes like being a worst teacher for Megan & the entire class at her school, but this is a pretty messed up thing Nickelodeon ever did to one of their characters! Thankfully, Drake later got what he deserves when Josh is done with him.

[@GarryLarryBarry]

I love Ross being a sociopath, the Friends spinoff should have been Ross sperated from Rachel and outcast from the group, following him in his daily activities, becoming more and more criminally dangerous.

[@robertmaclachlan4379]

In regards to the episode of The IT Crowd the episode was not offensive in the slightest and just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right. I find it utterly hilarious that you're not allowed to make fun of trans people but it's absolutely acceptable for a woman to beat up a man nobody says anything about that. 2024 is filled with dumb people.

[@randomreviews4278]

3:45 come on man really. Tbh one of the best moments of the show

[@Jeremiah_Rivers76]

What were the producers on when they made _Roseanne_ Season 9 a dream?

[@radrobd123]

In retrospect, the jump the shark episode of Happy Days has been widely mocked, but it did not ruin the show's popularity as the episode aired at the beginning of season 5 and the show ran for 11 seasons.

[@annearly3200]

I thought the MIM ending was horrible he grew up poor and working hard for everything. Why did also need work and go to school just to get burnt out

[@olleselin]

Yeah, that final scene of "Seinfeld" wasn't very fun

[@henri191]

There're many bad scenes in Friends, one is when Ross dated a girl who was his student, wrong and then Rachel dated her father, also wrong, but like Friends is a comedy show, so probably get over these things

[@Josh-g1h9n]

Many people act like Dr. Nora now

[@baxterwilson368]

7:58 I keep this mixed up with “Hi Honey I’m Home,” which I used to watch in the early nineties.

[@SDChargersFreak]

In the original script, Fonzie was killed by other sharks in the water that weren't in the net circle. They were just random sharks who came over to see what was going on.

[@jabberwock6]

dinosaurs was dark when they introduced the ice age which killed the dinosaurs in the series finale

[@lindseyh-8383]

Community's mention definitely should've been the puppet episode. That was the absolute worst thing to happen to the show.

[@georgeprchal3924]

I agreed wholeheartedly.

[@glazgogirl]

JD and Carla kissing was part of an important story arc to help heal Turk and Carla's relationship. It was a cringe moment, but what it finally leads to is Scrubs gold. I don't think it fits on this list.

[@jaimereupert4247]

The "ending" to HIMYM should've been #1.

[@CutterHistorical]

All Lois wanted was to have Malcolm play her way, she says so in that final episode that if Malcolm didnt try to defy her, she wouldve not cared but she had to set Malcolm up and sabotage things on purpose... besides Malcolm wouldve given Lois some money and helped her out

[@huntermengel2683]

My wife and I love Friends , we just skip over the cousin episode and pretend that was never a plotline 😬

[@Weplay2players]

At :30 your voice blended so well with the scene I thought it was a part of the voice over in the show lol

[@georgeprchal3924]

I really dislike the episode where Lily thinks she's a better coach than Marshal.

[@TheBlond49]

Scrubs' whole final season was far worse than Carla's kiss with JD

[@elemenohpe]

Lois was a typical parent from that time period

[@NewhamMatt]

The frustrating thing about that IT Crowd episode is it was actually the show's funniest episode. Douglas and April were the B-plot, but the A-plot was the unmatched story made iconic in five words. "This, Jen...is the internet."

[@dannyaraya8017]

randy’s first appearance in that 70’s show

[@meduseldtales3383]

I don't mind Ted ending up with Robin. Killing of the Mother was the real worst scene. And the way the show treated her generally was gruesome as well! Her first real love dies as soon as they are getting serious, and why? So she would live like a nun the next 8 years, to wait for when Ted is finally ready to settle down, to keep her practically a virgin, untouched and unspoiled, while Ted sleeps around with half of New York! Disgusting old-world gender roles disguised as modern entertainment.

[@trinaq]

Long before "Big Bang Theory", Christine Baranski played ANOTHER unlikeable psychiatrist in "Fraiser". Not even her acting talents could redeem either character.

[@dimidrugg9592]

Maybe her TBBT character was a subtle reference to her Frasier character.

[@mistermattmoose]

i'll give honorable mention to two mash episodes. first, hawkeye gets a fancy bottle of wine and has the nurses compete in a contest to win a date with him. the other was when a pretty swedish doctor (mariette hartley) visits the 4077 and he embarrasses himself while dancing with her. actually there's a third one where he tortures himself when an old flame gets stationed at the 4077. i know hawkeye evolved from a pig to a sensitive guy over the run of the show, but lord...........

[@dayo8843]

The Dr. Nora episode of Frasier was good

[@chrismartau]

The Seinfeld finale is so misunderstood. They spent 9 seasons not caring about anyone or anything and get punished for seemingly the smallest thing. It makes sense in the context of the show.

[@LazyParasyte]

I used to watch Roseanne reruns when I was younger and it took me forever to understand the finale. For the longest time I thought the whole series wasn’t real and then found out it was just the last season. Also let me just say I completely agree with this entire list. I’ve cringed through almost all of these episodes 😂

[@amarie1001]

“people do it all the time.. in the mountains.” is actually hilarious lol

[@spacejam8765]

Two broke girls is really funny. Who cares what people think. Also The IT Crowd is brilliant. That episode is just so funny. If you have a problem with the episode, don't watch it.

[@thelittlefactsvideos]

Are people forgetting the ‘Joey’ sitcom sequel to Friends?

[@ajthomas112000]

Malcolm in the Middle's ending was so bad and out of nowhere.

[@precious_muse]

One of my least favorite scenes in a sitcom happened when Ray tried to “work on” his cousin Gerard on “Everybody Loves Raymond.” When Ray is annoyed with Gerard’s mannerisms, Debra tells him, “Why don’t you work on you?” Ray then turns around and says to Gerard, “We should work on you.” The things he tries to teach Gerard, like forcing him to make eye contact and smile, just reminds me of uncomfortable moments from my life when I was forced to do the same, and my being autistic made that particularly difficult.

[@joermnyc]

Curb Your Enthusiasm mocked the Seinfeld ending again in it’s own finale, sending Larry to prison… only for Jerry to come in and save him because he accidentally tainted the jury. “This is how we should've ended the finale”.

[@damiencrews7603]

I thought roseanne had one of the best endings to a tv show ever

[@Ryan-xl1lr]

Ross hitting on his cousin was a real low point for him .at least Pheabe got me laughing.

[@cyclopstb]

I love 3rd Rock from the Sun, but I never forgave Sally for destroying Tommy’s good relationship with Alyssa Strudwick and Harry left Earth without mentioning his relationship with Janice(Chyna)

[@PZCherokee]

From what I remember Sally didn’t ruin it. Tommy lost his virginity to a random chick (I think Don’s niece?) and then told Alyssa and she rightfully broke up with him.

[@cyclopstb]

@@PZCherokee It was Mary's niece and Tommy admitted he was wrong. Check the season 5 finale, Sally thought Alyssa was gonna dump Tommy after she was helping Tommy with his HS speech. So she came to school and lied to Alyssa's face that Tommy was breaking up with her.

[@PZCherokee]

@@cyclopstb Omg I missed some episodes! Thanks. I'm gonna try to forget this spoiler lol. I haven't seen the show in years but used to record every episode on tape religiously as a kid

[@rothmandaniel6644]

Don was batting way above his average

[@Jamal-bl7yh]

Owen Maestro and His Mom Children's Hospital (2010-2016) The Infamous Oedipious Complex episode where Owen Is screwing his Mother I love Owen Maestro but his backstories are a bit Inconsistent given the Satirical nature of the Medical Parody sitcom

[@dominiquepitts9125]

To be honest, The Office entry that should’ve been on there was when they finally broke the fourth wall after Jim and Pam’s argument over the phone and the boom guy came over and comforted her

[@ma53jg]

The Dr Nora episode can still be seen on Frasier. Maybe I misunderstood the narrator.

[@PZCherokee]

Syndication means when they air the reruns on network tv (not streaming) they probably skip it.

[@ma53jg]

@@PZCherokee Thanks!

[@frankbrodie5168]

The I.T. Crowd didn't upset it's fans with the episode shown here. It upset over sensitive critics, and 0.1% of the general populace. That's enough it seems. Because they were a very very vocal minority.

[@DaveAlan316]

Idk I liked the show enough that I binged the whole thing in a day & that angle was the only part I didn't like. Still consider it a great show overall though

[@TheWatcher-h5c]

Too sensitive people ruins comedy

[@ELMolliez]

Seingfield ending threw them into jail out of nowhere. It was an epic fail.

[@baxterwilson368]

17:57 I remember the finale because it aired around the same time the American “Godzilla” movie hit theaters. While everyone was talking about this, I was talking about the movie, which I loved. 😂

[@algolin]

I liked "Charlie home alone". I think it's hilarious.

[@c-chizzle42]

Nothing from Sunny in Philadelphia should be on this list

[@marvelmite1]

I think im more okwith the "it was just a story" ending to Roseanne than most of what else happened in the season. I didnt mind the dark, sad ending. It felt true emotionally. Im glad it didnt stick though because i like where the Connors have gone since

[@Regreviews]

No lie #2 and #1 were ranked to high

[@foxhound13]

I remember watching friends and binge watching the whole series because my wife was obsessed with it. Middle of watching this series I pointed out saying “Ross is the worst human being there is, why are they friends with him?” And it was like glass shattering to her. She didn’t realize how terrible he was as I pointed out his flaw that weren’t actually cute but something that you go “damn, dude needs to stay away from Rachel for being so controlling”.

[@oliverfa08]

I think it's because it's a sitcom, you know...As a sitcom is made for comedy you probably gonna watch and see many problematic acts, but comedy makes you forget that

[@Charl_es19]

You know...there're many awful and wrong scenes on Friends, like Rachel and Monica kissing each other just for the "guys pleasure", but i and most the people think these scenes are creepy and funny at the same time.

[@rcleme]

I was kinda hoping all 20 were friends scenes.

[@redseaford9426]

I'll glad that I'm not the only one who hated the Charlie home alone episode. Just wasn't funny or fun to watch. Didn't really feel like a sunny episode

[@ScreenHackTV]

How is jumping the shark not no.1

[@Fin745]

Because it was retroactive old wives tell. Nobody has any issue with episode at the time it aired and the person who coin the term, that didn’t happen until almost a decade later(the episode aired in 1977 and the term wasn’t coined until 1985). The show was #1 well after this episode. Just do some research and even henry winkler said it made him upset for sometimes until he realized that as long as your talk about the show…you’re still talk about show.

[@ScreenHackTV]

@Fin745 lol I watched it at the time. Granted I was 4 yrs old but i remember the confusion in the following years as I got a tad older .

[@dart336]
