Baywatch
Before you bring out the pitchforks, listen to what we have to say. Just because it is popular does not mean that it is good. In 1989, TV critics were not impressed when it made its debut. As a matter of fact, it garnered such low ratings that NBC canceled it after the first season. It was moved to syndication, where it went on to survive for 10 seasons. In the review that appeared in the Miami Herald, they said it should have been titled “Sullying Sand ‘n’ Surf with Silly Stories” instead. It’s not quite as catchy, huh?

The Powers of Matthew Star
It might be sci-fi, but there are still boundaries one must respect. The show would have benefitted if it had a less is more mentality. It focused on a high school student who was also an alien prince from a planet called Quadris. It began to feel overstuffed through the first and last season when they made the main character and his alien guardian work as secret agents for the US government. This plotline did not achieve much than to confuse viewers and ultimately led to its cancellation.
