Oh if I only had one vote (which I do I guess) I'd vote the same thing over and over and over and over again and it would take something astonishingly terrible for me to change my mind so without further ado.............................
ANIMORPHS
I was obsessed with those books, they were my first ever fandom and I knew them back to front and when, one day, I saw an advert saying it was going to be a TV show I remember dancing around the garden in joy (don't laugh - I was around 11 lol!) but then it didn't get shown for over a year after the advert turned up and I settled down, ready to be blown away and it was... wrong.
The first thing that annoyed me was that they got Tobias' hair colour wrong. Then it didn't take long enough for them to morph - they could suddenly do it in ten seconds when in the books it takes minutes and that adds to the suspense. That was wrong. Then slowly more and more changes appeared and I was left going "what did you people do to my books!? My beloved books!?" with my mouth hanging open in shock.
I had to watch the whole season though, because I was a fan and I felt it was my duty to have to sit through it and I'm pleased I did because on one episode I heard a gorgeous song being played in the background. A couple of years later I found the tape they'd been recorded on and fell in love with it again but I had no idea who it was. A while later found out who it was by (Eden White) but couldn't find her in any shops anywhere. Then, years after that I came across a teaser on a website where you could hear the first two minutes of songs for free and remembered why I loved it (had forgotten about it by then) and then, finally, after about six years, my sister ordered the CD over the internet for me and I have to say that the song is amazing and to this day still remains my favourite ever. What song is it?
Eden White - Song Unsung
Saw Animorphs video on sale in poundland the other day (haha) which is what reminded me of how bad it was and got me wondering what other people have had as their worst TV shows.
