PoP! Top 6-Pack: Overrated TV Shows

http://panelsonpages.com/?p=25322

I agree with you on Glee, but I disagree with you somewhat on True Blood. I can agree that some would think that it is overrated but you can't compare it to Twilight.

Like the list. Still want to see Dexter, but Chuck, then Glee, and then Lie to Me had me mentally applauding. They're so boring to me. Get why people like them--especially the first two--but just aren't my thing.

True Blood, still up in the air. For older Twilight fans, it's a yay, and for those who want actual vampires back, it's a yay as well. But I just don't know how to feel about it. Maybe later down the road, like I did with Supernatural. Catching up all in one big burst.

I caught up on True Blood in one big burst too. I watched Season 1 in about 2-3 days and the same with Season 2. It takes a bit to get into.

Personal opinion not withstanding, 19 emmy nods shows that Glee is not that overrated. Even the article seemed to have more good things to say then bad.

Rachel can be annoying, and the baby con was tough to watch sometimes,but Glee was a show made in 2 parts. The 1st 13 were made without knowledge if a full season was going to be ordered. The second half was made months later. Season 2, with a full season ordered and time for a well thought out full story arc, will show whether Glee was overrated or not.

Definately dont agree with True Blood. Twilight copied the Sookie books and the quality of them is not really comparable. Okay if I have to compare them True Blood is better in every way possible to the Twilight movies and books and wouldnt make my top 50 overhyped shows right now.

Glee is perfect for this list. The show is alright but was sooooooooooooooooo overhyped that it cant possibly keep going like it is. Saturation level 1000. Better to keep people wanting more or no matter how good something is they get burned out. Just ask Prison Break, Heroes, OC and any other show that was hyped through the roof and went in a downward spiral after the first season. Prison Break is the poster child for overhyped shows. Still cant believe they made four season and a movie out of that show.

Agree. I loved Prison Break but by the 3rd season it turned into a giant WTF.

^I definitely think season 3 was the weakest. I thought they improved though, and season 4 was pretty good.

Ugh... The Emmys are so full of hype.
