I've always felt that overrated/underrated topics are a little snobbish. In a way it suggests that anyone who doesn't share your exact taste in entertainment is crazy and/or wrong. I'd much rather have a topic about a specific show and to discuss the pros and cons of it without resorting to the equivalent of, "I don't know how people can like this show because -I- don't like it!"

Overrated
Metalocalypse: Even the greatest heavy metal can't make up for a repetitive and pointless story.

Naruto: So...he's a ninja....and he wears orange?

Family Guy: How long can one show survive on 80's refrences?

Robot Chicken: Family Guy on auto-pilot.

Underrated
Arthur: This show has been on the air for over ten seasons because of some of the best writing for children's animation ever. Far more than just your average kid show.

Megas XLR: I feel like this was appealing to the wrong demographic.

The Emperor's New School: YES, it doesn't have all the original voices, but it's still a darn good show.

I suppose I can see why you feel that way, yeah. After all, my "Why FG?" post did conjure those reactions. But, I don't know if the topic is meant to be snobbish. Rather, a gauge of shows we as a community may have consensus on regarding attention.

Just my. $0.02

Actually I liked that topic you made because you weren't saying "I hate this show and I can't fathom why it's so popular!"; you were asking people why they liked the show, so it looked like you were wanting to gain some perspective.

My topic wasn't meant to be snobbish at all. The point wasn't to bash any shows. It is possible to like something but still think it's overrated. I liked the first few seasons of Family Guy but now I feel that it's terribly overrated, people quote it to death.

And and I'm curious why some people said AD: Jake Long is overrated. Are you kidding? Just because you don't like it, it doesn't mean it's overrated. Not trying to be rude, I just don't understand where you got that from.

Oh, thank you. I'll be honest part of me WAS "I hate this show," but yeah, I wanted to know what drew people to it, not use it to call them all stupid...
