25 TV Shows That Are Kind Of Bad, But Honestly So Good

"My mom and I love to have mother-daughter movie/tv nights and one night we stumbled upon What/If. It turned out to be the most bizarre and crazy thing we’d ever seen. It’s so outrageously cliché that, at points, I honestly couldn’t tell if I was watching a really cliché soap opera or a brilliant satire. My mom and I kept laughing at how absurd it was...but we kept watching."
