While 2025 certainly had some great TV shows, it also had its lion’s share of terrible series.
If we’re going to talk about the best of 2025, then naturally we have to talk about the worst. Not every show is going to be a hit, not every season 1 is nominated for an Emmy. Many of them are simply headed for the trash, and some trash even gets a second season.
Watch with us is rounding the bottom of our TV hours this year, unluckily dresses spin-off to a silly political thriller starring Robert de Niro.
We’ve picked and ranked the five worst shows 2025 had to offer.
5. ‘Pulse’ — Netflix
yes The Pitt it was the best medical drama of 2025, then dust it may have been the worst. The show follows a group of surgical and emergency residents at Maguire Hospital, a trauma center in Miami, as they all compete for the same thing: the position of Chief Resident in Emergency Medicine. Residents navigate their personal and professional lives while managing various medical crises while dealing with the aftermath of a massive scandal at their workplace.
dust Ultimately, it failed to charm both critics and audiences, and was justifiably canceled shortly after its disappointing debut. Critics eventually found it dust went all-in on tired tropes without doing enough to set it apart from other hospital dramas like out of breath or even the 86th season of Grey’s Anatomy. If it’s just another medical procedural show, why not watch something that really elevates The Pitt? ddespite good acting, a poor plot, annoying characters, and questionable depiction of sexual harassment made this show one to skip.
4. ‘Zero Day’ — Netflix
Robert De Niro plays George Mullen, a former president of the United States who is brought out of retirement by his successor to do a very special job. Mullen has been assigned to head a group investigating a massive global cyber-terrorist attack that killed thousands of innocent people. You see a new prestige series starring a performance tour de force like De Niro and think, “How could it go wrong?”
Well, when it comes to Day Zero, it can go very wrong. The executive produced political thriller Noah Oppenheim (A house of dynamite) ends up being a completely forgettable experience: a mouth-watering commentary on hot-button issues that offers nothing of substance. Even the extra star power of Angela Bassett, Jesse Plemons i Connie Britton can’t help bad writing and average tension.
3. ‘Monster: The Ed Gein Story’ — Netflix
This is not the first time that Ryan Murphy‘s name will grace this list as the prolific showrunner committed several crimes against television this year. But perhaps the least offensive to the tastes was Monster: The Ed Gein Storyalthough it really is a “lesser of two evils” situation. The third installment of the monster The anthology series follows the life of infamous serial killer Ed Gein while examining his influence on pop culture and true crime.
Critics somehow managed to find more value Monster: The Ed Gein Story that the next inclusion in this list, all is fair which has an impressive 6 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes compared to Of a monster 22 percent. The main highlight of the show is the great performances from the ensemble cast and also a stellar production design. However, most found monster to be a repulsive contortion of Gein’s persona without meaningfully commenting on pop culture, the only thing Monster: The Ed Gein history what he does is surrender to the very thing he wants to warn.
2. “All’s Fair” – Hulu
The only reason Everything is fair Not number one on this list is that while the show was universally panned by critics, it received enough hours of hate from the public to warrant its continuation, but just barely. It’s one of those Emily in Paris situations where the car crash on the side of the road makes drivers want to stick their necks out and look good, even though they shouldn’t. It’s the same situation with all is fair Murphy’s legal drama about an all-female Los Angeles law firm that landed the series renewal.
A show that has been dubbed by numerous critics as “one of the worst shows ever made” will unfortunately have many people watching out of curiosity to find out how exactly a show could be so bad. in the end, Everything is fair it’s not even a “so bad it’s good” situation because the show is too boring, too shallow, and poorly written to be entertainingly awful, even though it’s led by an utterly forgettable performance from Kim Kardashian.
1. ‘Suits LA’ — Peacock
The “Flop of the Year” TV award goes to LA dresses, a remarkably ill-conceived spin-off of dresses based on the fact that people enjoyed the output dresses when it was added to Netflix. But trying to exploit the streaming success of an older show doesn’t mean that a creatively uninspired spin-off will generate the same success. The creators behind it LA dresses he didn’t seem to understand what he was doing dresses so good to begin with, and instead of trying something new and interesting, they simply create the same thing a second time, but worse.
To close out 2025, Hulu doesn’t have a new series of its own to keep us glued to our screens in December. What it does have, however, are a couple of shows that are moving, at least for the holiday season. Thank you! You have successfully subscribed. Subscribe to newsletters Please enter a (…)
LA dresses simply tries to transpose the narrative of dresses in a different setting, but without any of the writing, acting or editing that made the original such a great, fresh, fun watch. Also, the show already had a failed spin-off with Pearson in 2019, which was canceled after one season and starred in one of them dresses most fascinating characters. If a show with an original character couldn’t work, why did they think they could capture magic with an all-new cast playing poorly written characters? yes Everything is fair at least it has a hate clock plot, LA dresses it has absolutely nothing to warrant watching it.
