very, very bad

I think that THIS is without doubt, THE most boring tv-serie ever made. One thing is that this one has been going for over 38 years (why in the world would people want to see this?). And another thing is that you can stop seeing it for 3-4 weeks, and you would STILL be able to know what has happened. Personally, I, for one, think that this should be taken away from tv.
