I'm withholding judgment on the movies/tv shows for right now.

Most overrated TV shows:

Grey's Anatomy
Survivor (why is it still on?)
Dancing with the Stars
Friends

Overrated Movies:

Harry Potter (okay while I love them, they were super overhyped and the last one totally didn't meet the hype. If that makes sense)
Twilight

Overrated Books:

Twilight
Eragon

I personally was told that these books/series are awesome and I tried reading them and could not get into them. If a book doesn't grab my attention within the first chapter, I'm done reading.

The same actually goes for a movie and TV show for me. If it hasn't "grabbed" my attention within 15-20 minutes, I'm done watching.

I disagree with Eragon being Overhyped...it was Epic fail all the way thru

I kind of liked Eragon. I had to force myself through Eldest however and I doubt I'm even going to read Brisinger.

Twilight
Anything super hero oriented (Batman/Superman/etc)
Grey's Anatomy
Any and ALL soap operas
American Idol
Survivor
Top Gun
Dirty Dancing
Pretty Woman
The Notebook
Sleepless in Seattle
Yes, Yes, Yes.

Add to that:
Beowulf (the animated one w/ Angelina)
300
Ghost
I love you Man
Matrix (all 3 of them)

I'll probably think of more later...

Seriously? Are you saying that just to get a rise outta people or did you really think it sucked? What kind of movies (aside from documentaries about black holes) do you like?

FWIW, I thought LOTR sucked, too. Just not my type of movie.

And here we have the challenge of this type of thread. A movie/book/show can be really good and that doesn't mean I'll like it.

"I hated it" =/= "it sucked."
