So I made a thread a while back about underrated shows, and I decided to make a thread to discuss shows that seem to get an endless amount of praise, yet you don't consider it to be as great as everyone makes it. (Gotta mention, just because a show is overrated, doesn't mean it's bad. Some shows I consider overrated I still really enjoy). April 2012- Yes, I'm going to get a lot of hate for this, but the April 2012 Show is overrated. It is, it's usually considered to be one of the greatest CEC shows out there, and while it is a great show, I don't consider it to be the best thing from the Duncan era. It definitely has it's flaws, Camouflage isn't that great of a song, it's just fairly decent, Love Story is a super forgetful song in my opinion, and I find it to be the weakest of the show's songs, and Party Rock Anthem definitely isn't the highlight of the show. It's still a good show, I really enjoy it, but the song selection is entirely perfect, so I don't really consider it to be the greatest CEC show out there. Holiday Party- *Incoming Hate* *Incoming Hate* Holiday Party does have some really good songs. Chuck's Holly Jolly Christmas is one of my favorite covers. It's so simple, yet so charming. However, I've noticed this tends to be considered by many to be the best Holiday show, whereas I personally disagree. It's nowhere as near as great as the Holiday 2002-2007; 2011 show. Yes, that show was overused, it definitely should've ended after 2005, and make it's comeback years later, however, that doesn't mean the Holiday 2002-2007; 2011 show isn't any good. In fact, I absolutely adore the performances in this show. The VAs really seem to up their game in this show delivering some of their best performances out there. Munch's Christmas Tree, Chuck's Jolly Ol' St. Nicholas, there's a lot of really strong lead singing in this show. That, and the music accompanying these songs are perfectly modernized, to the point where it seems kind of timeless, and not really outdated. Yeah, Holiday Party did a better job at including more "obscure" Christmas songs, that aren't as famous as the generic songs found in the Holiday 2002-2007; 2011 show, but while Holiday Party had some fine performances, the Holiday 2002-2007; 2011 show excels in it's performances. Not to mention, I really like the story line incorporated into that show. Chuck E's Totally Tubular 80's Show- I won't deny that I adore the 1st segment of this show. I absolutely love the covers of Everybody Wants to Rule the World and Shout, and while I do love the cover of Overkill in the 2nd Segment, the third and fourth Segments are really weak in my opinion. I like 80's music (Heck, that's my favorite decade of music), but the third and fourth segments are really forgettable in my opinion. I can't stand the 3rd Segment, and while the fourth segment had the charming Little Bit of 80's, and a nice performance of I think we're alone now, I definitely don't consider this to be the best show of 2009, not anywhere close. April 2017 Show- Yeah, the 40th anniversary show was great, but I feel as though people made a little too much of a big deal out of this show. Yeah, it was great seeing all these references and callbacks, but Remember That Time? was such a weak song the second time around. If this song wasn't present in this show, I might've considered this worthy of calling this the best show in recent time, but alas, what could've been a perfect song lineup was tainted by this mediocre mess. So what shows are overrated in your opinion? |

What's the overall reception for Show 5, 2015? Because I consider that show to be on-par with the majority of the ones from 2015 (meaning incredibly sub-par and not worth seeing), but I feel as though people elevate that one slightly more than it deserves to be simply because it has four songs as apposed to two (likely to make up for It's a Date and Most Epic Mouse not being programmed originally due to Show 5 being produced while the company was moving to a new building) plus a new skit (Pasqually's Brother). Also regarding April 2012, while it's easily my favorite show of that year I'll admit that it does lose a little steam after the second segment and I thought most of the segments ended abruptly. |

Show #5, 2016 was DEFINITELY overrated (in my opinion)! I never really liked any of the songs on it anyways. If you think about it, there are so many cuts in between some songs (*Song Title* and *Nothing Like a Walk*) so what's the point of calling them songs? I get this was one of the "better" shows, but really the only songs they actually sing are Out of this World and Dream Big. Not to mention the fact that Song Title is them singing about the fact that they did not come up with a song. - (Honestly, I don't have anything REALLY against the show, I just feel that it is a bit too overrated at this point and the songs have been reused too many times.) |

April 2012 is definitely one. The only two strong songs to me are Party Rock Anthem and Everybody Have Fun Tonight. Also Show 6 2017. It's long, boring, the songs are dull (I do like Costume Party though), and the skits are dull. Edited by AD Machine, Dec 18 2017, 10:27 AM.

Love Story & Party Rock Anthem are two songs that, in my opinion, I don't like and not even the MMBB have made them better in their performances. Also it's called "Chuck E's Totally Awesome 80s Show" not "Totally Tubular" Edited by DinnerThriller, Dec 21 2017, 10:41 AM.
