Too many "what got cancelled too soon" questions, what's a show that went on too long?

Hard mode: no The Walking Dead

Big bang theory. It was absolute garbage.

It's weird with Big Bang Theory, when it first started me and my friend circle loved it, thought it was brilliant but yes it did lose something after a few seasons.

But online everyone just seemed to hate it - could it be because we're British and it just landed better with us..?

It was good the first few seasons, people shit on it because they shit on everything popular, but it WAS a good sitcom, it just never grew up.

Also, I found the depiction of the Indian guy funny at first but it quickly got racist and never got better, they just kept piling on the racism

Nah I shit on it because it was shit, for something that was supposed to be a comedy it wasn’t funny at all, it is subjective of course, I’m sure people did find it funny

Anything with a laugh track immediately turns me off, watch some of the clips with the laugh track deleted and that’s the humour you are left with.

It's unfair to remove the laughs, fuck up the whole flow and call it bad. If the show had been written to be without a laugh track it wouldn't come out that way
