10. Flash Gordon: Yes, we’re going here. It’s badly written, badly acted and poorly paced. Every time we watch this series (and we HAVE tried) it just doesn’t work for us. |

9. Far Out Space Nuts: Gilligan’s Island in space! This is really… really… boring. I can’t fault it for much else besides this. Bob Denver did the best he could with the material, but the show was just trying to pander to an audience that the writers obviously didn’t understand. |

8. Small Wonder: So you’re a super-genius who created a robot so convincing you can pass it off as your own daughter. What do you do with it? Sell it to the military? Take over the world with an army of them after having them infiltrate the schools where high-ranking officials’ children attend? Maybe you wire them as atomic bombs and send them in to strategic targets posing as students? The answer is, “none of the above”. You just treat the robot girl like it’s your kid and try not to tell anyone about it. That makes a lot of sense. I know it was for kids, but come on… toss us a bone. |

7. Night Man: So which is worse? Having a saxophone-playing superhero played by an actor who just randomly presses keys or having a superhero who’s only power is being able to tell how the bad guys are? Seriously that’s his power. He can detect evil. In the first of our comic book adapations to reach the list, Night Man was at least kinda like the source material, but still bad. I’m talking “Baywatch Nights” bad. |

6. Out of this World: This Saturday morning series from the 80s always failed to connect during a time when there were some very good sci-fi comedies on television, for example “The Charmings” and “Alf”. This series just didn’t make a lot of sense. The best part of this show was the swingin’ theme song. |
