8 TV Shows So Bad They Should Be Cancelled

3. Toddlers & Tiaras

Toddlers & Tiaras is the show that spawned Honey Boo Boo - need I say any more? Not only is it one of the worst examples of reality television out there, but it's reality TV that involves children, children who have no autonomy or the ability to make their own life decisions.

The show centres on the phenomena of child beauty pageants, but it's not so much an examination as a glorification, as children are decked out in bizarrely adult clothing and caked in make-up.

To many outspoken critics, the show is genuinely akin to child cruelty, as they're unable to recognise the difference between "costume" and reality.

For a while it seemed as if the controversy surrounding the show may have killed it, but its seventh season aired August 2016 proving that its still very much alive. Who is watching this trash?
