According to a new study conducted by Reviews.org, some of the most-watched shows in the United States are also some of the most overrated. In an effort to figure the TV shows Americans love to hate, Reviews.org took some of the most-watched shows of all time and asked residents from every state whether or not they believe those shows are overrated.
First, Reviews.org compiled a list of the most-watched TV shows of all time from IMDB. Once they secured that information, an anonymous survey among Americans 18 and older was conducted. In states where enough responses were received to represent the population, Reviews.org highlighted the television show with the highest majority of respondents indicating they believed the show was overrated. The results may surprise you.
Out of every state surveyed, NBC’s Parks and Recreation was picked most often—eight times total—as the most overrated show in America. If every state has an equal vote, Parks and Recreation is the most overrated show. When looking at the survey overall, however, Rick and Morty was voted the most overrated show. Fifty eight percent of participants cited Rick and Morty as overrated.
