Anything with Housewife in the title - Desperate Housewives, Real Housewives of..... - I absolutely don't understand those shows or why anyone watches/ed them.
My kids hated Caillou when they were little. I banned Mr Dressup after the puppeteer that did Casey/Finnegan died and they changed the puppets - all the new puppets were whiny little turds, much like Caillou.

"Made in Canada" I think was up there with "Da Vinci's Inquest" in terms of really good CBC shows. I never saw the originally airing of "Made in Canada", but caught re-runs. Damn that show was funny. I am also glad that it actually had a proper series finale.
Onto some tv shows I never liked, I really was not fond of the other "North of 60", "Due South", or "Doogie Howser".

I tried watching it, but I felt like it was a bad rip off/trying to latch onto the success of Corner Gas.

I can't stand that show. But even worse is Caillou. Treehouse re-did their schedule and now Caillou is on at 7pm. Disturbingly, my daughter really likes that show. Unfortunately for her, 659-723 has now become bathtime.

That was one of the most underrated Canadian TV shows ever. I loved "Made in Canada".
I will admit to watching "Republic of Doyle," but that's only for the lovely eye candy that is Allan Hawco. The episodes are pretty horrible, the writing is terrible.

Caught an episode of Alaskan Women Looking for Love on a recent flight, just pure bottom of the barrel scrapings on this one. Group of young women (from Alaska) are flown down to Miami (to look for love) and they struggle to fit into a world they don't understand.
"I can't wear rubber boots to the club?!... oh the club isn't even open at 2:00 in the afternoon"
"Wait bottle service means we pay $500 for a bottle of vodka?"
"Ohh this cute little patio with the drag queens and rainbow flags is a gay bar?!"
Just pure tripe.

To be fair, Desperate Housewives is a scripted drama like Grey's Anatomy, CSI, or anything else... and had astronomical ratings in its first 2 seasons. Real Housewives of Wherever are completely different; the fake, scripted "pretending to be reality" crapshoots about the pretentious snobs.
I watched the first season of DH to see what the hype was about, but I'd never in a billion years watch Real Housewives, Jersey Shore, Honey Boo Boo, Toddlers/Tiaras, etc.

Big Bang Theory, 2 and a Half Men, How I met Your Mother....
Depressing that these shows make TONS of money but funny shows like Arrested Development and Party Down get cancelled
