Have you ever been so excited to start a new show or movie and wondered why people liked it? Well, some Highlanders here at Hazen gave us some movies and shows they feel are way too overhyped. 

Reagan Ross (9)

Breaking Bad: “I think it’s overrated because of the number of memes that I’ve created from it…I don’t think it’s that good.” 

Alexa Powers (9)

Squid Games: “I think it’s overrated because there was a lot of hype about it but it’s just a simple show.” 

Timothy Anderson (9) 

Mid 90’s: “Because a lot of depressing stuff happens in it.” 

Moon Schell (9)

Riverdale: “I think it’s poorly made and the story line is weird and hard to follow.” 

 Kathleen Freitas (10)

Outer Banks: “I tried to watch it but it wasn’t that good. I found it very boring.”

Colby Duenas (10) 

All American: “Because it’s all about Spencer and Olivia.” 

Alex Castellanos (10) 

Seinfeld: “I think it’s overhyped and receives more attention than it should…it’s not really all that.” 

Alan Perez (10) 

Heartstopper: “I feel like the story itself is too overplayed and was shown a lot.” 

Logan Browning (11)

Wednesday: “I just couldn’t get behind it. I found it immensely boring.”

Leo Patricelli (11)

Top Gun: “Because the second one is better and the first one is not that good.” 

David Mkrtumov(11) 

The Vampire Diaries: “So much goes on in that show, there’s something new happening in every season and I feel like too many people watch it.” 

Karl Warner (12) 

The Office: “While it is a good show, it’s been over for a while now and nothing new has come out of it…it has some issues that some fans just overlook.”

Vianey Levron (12)

Grey’s Anatomy: “I just think the newer seasons are really bad. It’s not the same and all the characters are dead.” 

Martin Metefe-Rodgriguez (12)

F.R.I.E.N.D.S: “It’s just annoying. I tried watching it, but it got boring.”

Do you agree? Or do you think these shows deserve the hype?
