For me, it has to be Winnie the Pooh. I just never found the Hundred Acre Woods and its inhabitants interesting. Pooh himself was a lazy rear end in a top hat who only cared about stuffing his face with “hunny” and creating elaborate schemes to get more instead of trying to be a decent friend to the others. I’ve tried to look at it positively as an adult, but the more I think about it, everyone in the Hundred Acre Woods becomes even worse than I remember except for Piglet, who usually gets taken advantage of because he’s too sweet and innocent to say no, and Eeyore, who could use some genuine help for his depression instead of being told to “cheer up!” and being forced to interact with others. It’s like It’s Always Sunny with horrible characters, but as animals lol. Also, The Jungle Book. “The Bear Necessities” is a bop, but the movie never interested me and it was on all the time. Just by extension I never cared for TaleSpin, either. I dunno why I never liked either version of The Jungle Book. They’re certainly not bad by any means, but I always thought updating the story to a 1930s-ish flying ace plane world was an odd choice.

I've never liked Star Wars even a little I had a friend who was super into it and he used to smack me with one of those extendable plastic lightsabers when I beat him at Mario Kart so that may have given me a bad taste for it

Buffy the Vampire Slayer I tried to like it and I watched one of the episodes that Oz was in because I had a crush on Seth Green, but that turned out to be the episode where he died or left or whatever so I had no further incentive

Couldn't get into Harry Potter or Pokemon as a kid. Not by choice, but because they were SATANIC and thus not allowed in my parents home.

When kids at school started getting into Power Rangers I kinda tepidly got behind it, but I drew the line at Dragon Ball Z a couple years later.

X-Men, specifically the animated series. The opening theme was cool and it had a pretty neat montage, but once the shows started I had no idea what the gently caress was going on and no desire to learn.

Superhero comics. Never really got the appeal. My dad had stacks of stuff like Marvel and poo poo and I would not read it. Other comics were ok.

Pretty much everything in the 80s. I have distinct memories of not liking just about any TV show because, even as a child, it all felt "old" to me, and made me feel... Depressed, I guess would be the best word for it. Somehow to my 6 year old brain, Silver Spoons felt dated and weird, while it originally aired. Same for everything you could think of - Who's the Boss, Family Ties, etc, etc. Why older feeling tv shows depressed me, I'll never know. And I didn't have the word for it back then, I just knew they made me feel bad/sad/lonely.

From my early childhood I had an instinctive, visceral hatred for the mainline DIsney characters and iconography--Mickey, Donald Duck, Goofy, and the rest. It was all so polished and sanitized that it felt like Disney was always talking down to me, and Looney Tunes seemed subversive by comparison (though I was too young to realize that much of Looney Tunes was hella racist). Mickey Mouse's dead-eyed stare made my flesh crawl, gently caress him and his lovely friends. E: Never really liked superheroes either, I took a juvenile delight in calling them "stupor heroes", and I like them as an adult even less because now they're completely inescapable and grown rear end men think it's cool to gabble on about Captain America and Thanos and the Infinity Stones

Was never into super heroes or power rangers or harry potter but everyone has said those already. So I'll add that I didn't like tamagotchi. E: people would huddle around over those things and sure maybe something fun to do in class but having a gameboy was just better Grey Cat fucked around with this message at 06:42 on Jun 21, 2023 |

You know the golden age of Disney Channel programming? Yeah, none of it was for me. e: I watched old Zorro reruns on the channel, though, because Zorro was cool.

Mortal Kombat. I've never been good at fighting games but even I knew the controls were jank and the gore was just a cheap ploy for publicity. Friends bored the poo poo of of me. I just could not see the appeal. Seinfeld and Frasier were much funnier and more interesting to me.

You people are making me feel old. I was in my teens or 20s when the poo poo you're talking about came out.  For me, I never understood why people liked the Benji movies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benji_(1974_film) Or Mighty Mouse. Or Eight is Enough.

Rugrats was good and clever, you just didn't understand its best parts because you were a little kid or a teenager who didn't give a poo poo. Doug, on the other hand, was made exactly for you and you understood it perfectly and you're correct in hating it.

The parent stuff is all miserable and I love it. Doug was harmless, not much to say for or against it. There was just much better shows at the same time.
