The Worst TV Show of 2020, According to Critics
These were the most poorly reviewed television series of the year.
With most of us spending more time indoors than ever before this year, we've been watching an unprecedented amount of television—from reruns of classic series to exciting new offerings. But not all new TV is good TV. In fact, plenty series this year failed to get a seal of approval from the critics. Based on their reviews, the following list represents the worst TV shows of 2020.
We went through Metacritic's list of every TV season that came out this year, then looked at the 50 lowest rated offerings. Most of these shows made their debuts in 2020, while a handful of them simply had especially abysmal seasons. And though many were limited series or such unmitigated flops that they won't be returning, others will be back on your screens next year. (Don't say we didn't warn you!)
Here are the TV shows critics weren't thrilled about in 2020, from the meh to the miserable. Read on to see if any of your favorites earned this dismal designation. And for series on the other end of the spectrum, check out The Best TV Shows of 2020, According to Critics.
