The other thread got me thinking. What things that people like are to you an example of bad taste?
I personally think anyone who enjoys Bum fights or any other exploitation reality stuff is guilty of it.
What do you think?

Reality tv shows like Jersey Shore or Real Housewives. Anything that rewards people for acting ignorant and dumb.

Any exploitation of those who cannot give informed consent.
Like Jon and Kate Gosselin parading their children on TV, or people on Maury showing pictures of their children while a woman tries to figure out which of the 12 guys she slept with is the father.

I'd add "Toddlers And Tiaras". Anyone who thinks that shit is okay loses a lot of respect from me. Oddly enough, I've yet top meet one.

Guys who take their love of "real dolls" (realistic, lifelike sex dolls) over the limit. By attending get-togethers with other doll-lovers, and basically pretending the doll is their wife/girlfriend and even sometimes taking them out in public.  I don't know if that's exactly the same as "fandom", but it screams bad taste (aside from being creepy as hell). |

Shows like Manswers (if there are any others like it). No offense to anyone who enjoys that kind of thing, but that kind of obnoxious testosterone poisoning is just... well, obnoxious.
Also, I'll agree with CelticJobber. I have nothing personal against Real Dolls or people who are into that sort of thing, but it is kinda creepy.

Child exploitation is number one, period. I don't see how anyone could think giving Jon and Kate a TV show could turn out anything but bad. And Toddlers & Tiaras? I can't help but see it as the prequel to Intervention.
Also, anything that puts cameras on the shallow, the stupid, and the both. The Hills, Jersey Shore, Real Housewives, and pretty much any show based on a celebrity being a celebrity. I think that type of show pretty much ruined my view of reality television, which is unfortunate since shows like Hell's Kitchen and Solitary are essentially reality television themselves.

Toddlers & Tiaras - What the f***? They're children not barbie dolls.
Are you Smarter then a 10 year old? (British version of Are You Smarter Then A 5th Grade) - What the hell, you have these kids answering trivia questions. Why? Is that what the kids learn in school? That shits corrupt.

Toddlers and Tiaras makes me physically ill. How some of that stuff isn't borderline child abuse is beyond me.

Toddlers and Tiaras makes me physically ill. How some of that stuff isn't borderline child abuse is beyond me. That show bugs me on two levels, really. The first is obviously the "using your child to get time on TV" issue, which I think we can agree is pretty bad. The second is that there are going to be a lot of selfish, obnoxious kids growing up who started by either being on this show or wanting to be on this show. |

Anything that glorifies looking like an anorexic supermodel for both sexes while slamming down anyone else that doesn't have that build. I can understand being fit and trim is a healthy way of life, but in the end, it's what's on the inside that really counts.
And yeah, add me to the Toddlers and Tiaras list as well.

I'm sort of confused... I like a lot of things that are in poor taste, but I don't consider myself to have poor tastes in quality TV, film, and music... is this what I find the creators to make in poor in taste, or what I find suggests the viewer to have?

Toddlers and Tiaras is sickening.
Something I have a huge problem with is dogfighting or cockfighting. I don't know about your areas, but around here, at least, cockfighting is a huge "sport" that draws lots of bettors and spectators.
