Society & Culture Overrated/Underrated

Yeh, nah! I can't stand Kath and Kim either.

I just don't find that parody humour funny. It's so easy and simplistic to pick on the "common" people for a laugh. It's largely not clever and not witty. I have never once laughed at anything on Kath and Kim. I don't think I've even smirked or chuckled at it.

Kath and Kim represented everything that was horrid about the Howard years, they were just his sort of people.

London is amazing. Could easily live there.

Absolute shitehole. I lived in Manchester (a far better city) and couldn't wait to get back on the M6 after an expensive and underwhelming time

London is great fun if you have money. Northerners, as a rule in England are far more friendly than southerners too.

Each to their own. Found Londoners to be rude, and the beer was crap (and too many ****in' Aussies)

Overrated: Smith's BBQ Ribs Chips - they're tasteless and Salt & Vinegar - they're shit
Underrated: Original/Plain Smith's - there's just something about them that's enticing.

THIS. I remember when I was like 6yo, I didnt mind Fish Fingers & Salt & Vinegar chips. Then one day, I suddenly realised that I couldnt stand both of these foods, havent had them since. They are just AWFUL.

Infact, if someone has just been eating those rank chips, I wont even let them touch me, as that scent stays behind on their fingers.

Also, one of my pet hates is when someone says plain chips or plain icecream (for salted & vanilla respectively).

I like this post. I agree that Frasier is criminally underappreciated, it is an infinitely better show than Cheers. The first 5 seasons are great, especially the eps when Niles covers for Frasier's radio show. Unfortunately, after Niles and Daphne got together it died quickly. Season 10 and 11 are pretty bad. And the finale is among the worst ever for any TV show.

Ha ha! When I first read someone say Frasier, I was going to post that it would have been more highly regarded if they stopped at 9 seasons like Seinfeld, so there you go. Seinfeld is my favourite comedy of all time, but Frasier probably had the best written dialogue of any sitcom of which I can think.

Underrated: Seinfeld finale.

It will get even better with more age. It would have been impossible to write something to match the hype, and they went with something pretty brave and off-the-wall.

Yep. Criminally underrated. Family Guy is pure, unoriginal, lame shit.

Love the ep when Hank's jeans are ruined and he's forced to wear slacks. Dale: "Hey Hank, how are things down at the bank?"
