Below Deck Mediterranean (2016)
2020 and were stigmatizing mental illness
I've loved Below Deck but Below Deck Med needs a complete reset. Captain Sandy, Malia and Bugsy need to go but Malia specifically needs to be fired for her comments on social media and the show about Hannah's panic attacks and the shameful stigma she is spreading about mental illness and anti anxiety medications! It's completely uncalled for. And if Sandy and Bugs and even producers are in on it, which I'm betting is true, all involved should be fired. It is 2020 and no one should feel this ashamed for needing to take anti anxiety medication for their panic attacks, let alone have it used against them for a dramatic firing on a reality tv show. It's disgusting and insulting to people with mental illness and the brave advocates who try to fight this type of stigma every day. I've never been more angry watching a season of below deck and to be honest, their whole plan comes off really pathetic and obvious to everyone. Yeah, I don't blame everyone for wanting Hannah gone although I did really relate to her and grew to like her a lot, but there is no need to drag people with anxiety for tv ratings, find another way! I'm so disappointed in Bravo. Fire them all!
The Originals (2013)
One of my favourites until Season 5
Amazing show until the terrible ending. Seasons 1 through 4 were perfect. I guess it should have ended at the end of Season 4 but if I really had it my way, a supernatural show like this could have gone on way longer with so many endless possibilities for what The Original vampire family could have done. It's even more infuriating that they spent their last season as a overly long commercial for a terrible sequel show that is nothing in comparison to The Originals or even TVD! I am devastated that it had to end at all but this way is even more depressing. It almost makes me wish I never started watching at all.
Fear the Walking Dead (2015)
Trying to stick with it but FTWD just doesn't compare to TWD
I'm no expert in producing television or anything, I don't usually leave reviews of tv series, I've just never felt so disappointed in a show before. I started watching FTWD simply because I finished TWD and was missing it and hoped FTWD would help fill the void. It hasn't. I will also add that I have been disappointed with TWD ever since Rick's uncertain... situation. (Trying not to spoil it for others)
The reason I fell in love with TWD is because it brought people together that would normally never be around each other and I feel Rick was vital to bringing everyone together and deserved a happy ending. I understand it's a walker apocalypse horror but let the bad guys get killed off and keep the charming stars of the show we come to root for!
And this is why I can't seem to get into FTWD... The main characters suck, they aren't likeable, they're selfish and there's no sense of loyalty/heart like TWD. Nick started to grow on me and then they completely changed the entire show and started over. It should've just been canceled if it was that bad and they should've started over with a whole new series instead... (or not.) I also think it was a bad idea to bring in boring characters from TWD to try to save the show as well, it should've remained it's own show.
I also excepted FTWD to focus more on the beginning of the apocalypse, like the first season. They could've done so much more with that, they could've had a much more diverse cast. They could have had politicians and the army and everything in between, rather than focusing on one screwed up, dysfunctional blended family that all dies anyway. They rushed through the world ending and then it just became a sad knock off of TWD except there's no family, loyalty, heart. It's all so very disappointing.
PS. I'd also like to note that I am not all the way caught up on FTWD. I'm almost at the end of season 4. I hope it gets better and I've decided to continue to stick with it for now.

Lindsay Lohan's Beach Club (2019)
Lindsay makes no sense
Lindsay is a walking contradiction and does not know anything about running a business. She should be embarrassed by this show and her warped decision making skills, or a lack there of. What a train wreck.
