10 Worst TV Shows Of 2022

6. Blockbuster

It speaks volumes about the current state of streaming services that Netflix have unironically made a series championing Blockbuster, but I guess we can take some solace in the fact it probably won't get a second season.

Following a fictionalised version of the world's final Blockbuster store, the workplace comedy is so derivative and comedically unimaginative that it constantly teeters on the edge of cringe-worthy and plain forgettable.

Put it this way: When modern sitcom veterans Randall Park, Melissa Fumero and J.B. Smoove can't bring the laughs or capture any kind of complexity in their characters, you've got a disaster that needs to be put down.

If this is the only tribute Blockbuster gets on the small screen, it's safe it deserved a hell of a lot more. What a waste.

I get to write about what I love, which is cool. You'll typically find me in front of a TV, or hunkered down behind a book, or dreaming of things far away. Be good to each other. Find my other writings here: https://allthethingsineversaid.substack.com/
