22. Life With Lucy
While it can be hard to believe, even icons like Lucille Ball made some mistakes in her career. Life With Lucy was pinged by critics for material that was behind the times, with the Washington Post likening reruns of the show to a “well-suited torture device for KGB agents and drug smugglers”. Yikes!

That aside, it’s hard to fault a comedic legend for one unfortunate career choice. Was the comedy really as old fashioned as viewers claimed it was? Regardless of the consensus, Lucille deserves nothing but love and adoration because she’ll forever be imprinted in our minds and hearts from the iconic, I Love Lucy.
23. Murphy’s Law
Murphy’s Law states, “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” This led to us keeping an open mind about a series of the same title, which ended up being a mistake. The show follows Daedalus Patrick Murphy, an insurance fraud investigator with a string of personal issues, none of which were relatable to viewers.

Newsday didn’t hold back in their review of Murphy’s Law, calling it “Monumentalizing meaningless, pathetically puerile and irredeemably ridiculous.” Harsh, even by our standards, right? One season down, the show waltzed off’ screens after just 13 episodes, never to be heard of again until now.
