I think the worst TV network currently has to be Nickelodeon. Hate their shows, hate their commercials they run on that channel, hate everything about their ambition. Just a terrible all around horrible and trashy network with unfunny and poorly written shows now. They used to have classic shows like All That and ICarly but after ICarly ended its original run the entire network went to trash. What is the worst TV network in your opinion?
Hard to dispute that one. Throw in OANN and Newsmax as well.
Watched Newsmax for 90 seconds, the first commercial was for a Trump coloring book. Shameless doesn't even begin to describe it.
Misspelled "Faux."
TLC. It's 24 hours of boring trash that is specifically designed to be boring trash.
Trashy Life Channel
No you aged out of a channel that is meant for children with different tastes.
For real I only clicked this post to see if anyone called OP out for his bizarre opinion. Like bruh it's literally a children's TV channel.
Comedy Central is quite a misnomer these days.
I saw an ad on comedy central recently for their weekday lineup, which is Seinfeld and The Office. Doesn’t matter what new stuff they put out, it’s not going to do better than two network TV shows whose heyday is long past.
It's like MTV, there's no actual comedy on Comedy Central anymore except for maybe South Park.
Bring back Detroiters you cowards :(
This makes me sad. Comedy Central got me through college.
The CW
It’s known so much as a bad network, that when a new show comes out that looks cheap, people will say it looks like a CW show.
The first two seasons of Arrow, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, and Legends of Tomorrow are way better than anything produced by christian or news channels. Hell I would rather watch Riverdale and Batwoman.
This time next year The CW network probably won’t even be here thanks to Nextar. They’ve already cancelled 14+ series and counting this year. Which is sad because I really liked their programming from the other big 4 networks
Yeah I heard the news. They might not have always made great stuff but they ironically carried DC during a period where their movies were really bad. RIP.
i don't think anything has been worse for the country than CNN / Fox News / MSNBC.
otherwise, there's a lot of networks that i think are filled with useless or boring programming, but some people seem to get value out of most of them so why would i care when i can just as easily ignore them myself. i, too, think the programming on Nickelodeon and Disney Channel pales in comparison to what they had in my childhood, but i'm a 34 year old man now and my 7 year old nephew seems to like what they're offering
One of those is not like the others.
you say that just because you have party affiliation, anyone else who does not subscribe to either side of the idiocy will agree they are all one in the same.
oh, the three are pretty much the same, though at least Fox has realized the last president is a loser (just look at those midterm results) and has stopped giving him quite so much attention

CBS News app is ok for some straight news.
24 hour news was a mistake tho. Having to fill all that time and turn a profit was a disastrous model.
QVC, any of the News channels which aren't news just opinion, CBN.
I LOVE QVC!
To each his own, personally hate shopping and try to avoid it at every turn.
I don't buy stuff, it's just great for a laugh sometimes.
It is a close contest between the History Channel and TLC. The winner would have to be TLC used to be fun and interesting and have really cool programs about science but when it made the switch to reality TV in an attempt to boast ratings most of the other networks followed.
Sure there are bad things about Discovery and History but Pawn Stars, Ax Men and Ice Road truckers would never have been a thing unless TLC proved it could be profitable. And as much as I hate History Channel programming 95% of the time at least they never pitched Toddlers and Tiaras as a concept.
Seriously anyone who pitched the concept of T&Ts never needs to be in charge of producing a television show ever again.
TLC and it's not even close.
Pick a satellite/rabbit-ear TV channel, any one will do (unless it’s MeTV.)
All the broadcast and cable channels have become crap because their owners are all focused on streaming which while it is the future is also a massive blackhole of money.
The channel owners complain about cable cutting as they themselves kill their own channels by depriving them of content.
Right now I could think of several that it could be: Fox News, ABC, NewsMax, E, MTV
Any of the former "Educational Channels". History Channel, Science Channel, TLC, etc. They all had their original programming replaced with trash reality shows. In fact, I'd argue that naming Good TV networks would take less time than naming all the terrible TV networks now that Cable/Satellite is basically dead.
MTV.
I dont have cable but i cannot recall the last time i came across that channel in the wild and it wasn't some terrible reality show.
MTV or as I call it the ridiculousness channel

The one I watch the least of is NBC
I don’t have cable anymore so it’s hard to say what is worst passed the main networks for me.
All of them except FX.
I've hated MTV ever since its inception. Chris Morris singlehandedly destroying it with a sketch only lessened the pain
IFC used to put on really great sometimes weird films and now its nearly all re-runs of shows and average movies.

BBC
Most disappointing might be BBC America.
Yes, they always show American movies.
CNN
A channel run by fantasists for fantasists. No wonder it's dying.
