Hoops (WORST)
Seasons: 1 season, 10 episodes. Starring (voiced by): Jake Johnson, Ron Funches, Cleo King, Natasha Leggero, A. D. Miles, and, Rob Riggle. Hoops is an adult-only animated comedy series that, unsurprisingly, lasted for only one season. It featured the life of a high school basketball coach who believes he can change the path of his life through his own team by pushing them into the big league.
Why it’s a stinker: First and for all, the language. Just because the show is intended for adults, it doesn’t necessarily mean Ben Hopkins, the basketball coach, can have a vocabulary that consists only of dirty words. The graphics of the show are nothing to be proud of and resemble many other animated shows seen before. Because the show was canceled after just one season, the writers, assuming a second season would follow, never bothered changing the end and the viewers are left on a cliffhanger.
Chasing Cameron (WORST)
Seasons: 1 season, 10 episodes. Starring: Cameron Dallas. This show focuses on Cameron Dallas, a social media influencer and a member of the group called Magcon (Meet and greet convention). The show covers Cameron's road to fame and the uncompromising price he has to pay.
Why it’s a stinker: This show is supposed to be suited for teens, however, there are no educational topics covered at all, not to mention signs of the sort of adults we want our teens to grow up into. The only thing this reality coverage gives is more screen time for Cameron.
Richie Rich (WORST)
Seasons: 2 seasons, 21 episodes. Starring: Jake Brennan, Brooke Wexler, Kiff VandenHeuvel, Lauren, Taylor, Joshua Carlon, and, Jenna Ortega. Richie Rich was created by DreamWorks Animation for a Netflix production. Richie develops a way of growing clean energy vegetables and ends up making loads of dollars. Basically, it's a show that emphasizes why underaged children should be handed loads of money.
Why it’s a stinker: It's supposed to be inspired by the comic character of the same name, however, there is no resemblance whatsoever between the 1953 character and this 2015 interpretation. Besides, teaching kids that you can become a billionaire just by selling vegetables you don't eat is not really educational. Parents spend days upon days trying to convince their kids to eat their greens.
Sexy Beasts (WORST)
Seasons: 2 seasons, 18 episodes. Sexy Beasts is a reality show exported from the UK. It's just like any other dating show, however, everything is coated in layers of fantasy land, with the contestants dressing up as animals and mythical creatures.
Why it’s a stinker: In a nutshell, Sexy Beast is a show about obnoxious people, doing absolutely nothing that is worth our time. As this is a reality show, there is no written script, however, the participants do transform into unrealistic creatures, therefor a touch of class and sophistication could have done wonders.
Too Hot to Handle (WORST)
Seasons: 3 seasons, 29 episodes. Too Hot to Handle is a British reality show that gathered ten adults who have difficulties holding on to a proper and meaningful relationship. They are placed in one house and are forbidden from having any physical contact with each other. If that simple rule is violated, the prize money is reduced each time the rule is broken.
Why it’s a stinker: There are loads of dating reality shows however this is as low as it can get. This show is almost abusive to our intelligence. Taking part in a competition where you're not allowed to have any physical contact with your fellow housemates just doesn't seem to go very far and remains low-quality TV for very few people to enjoy.
