One of my guilty pleasures are Hallmark Channel movies lol, especially Christmas ones.
It's just easy and sugary and it always has a mostly happy ending.It's comfort TV.

The original Charmed was a guilty pleasure of mine. Magic, really hot girls, it was definitely turn-off-your-brain comfort tv.

Chicago PD.
Hank Voight holding it down.
I only watch it occasionally and all at once. Very over the top crazy. Lot of fun.

Those can be weirdly entertaining if you're in the right frame of mind. I watched one random one on Netflix last time I was sick. I was actually surprised they only mentioned Jesus three times in the whole flick and it wasn't even overt.

For me at my age my guilty pleasure is probably Power Rangers. I don't watch every season but generally only go for the ones where the fanbase consensus is generally good.

The Smurfs. (The original cartoon, not the CGI abomination.) I still buy the collections whenever I find one I don't have.

TV: Old school cop shows like Dragnet and anthology shows like The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone.
Movies: Monster movies, especially classics like King Kong, Godzilla and those “big bug” flicks from the 1950’s.Avatar: Here's to the late, great Steve Dillon. Best. Punisher. Artist. EVER!

Old game shows. Amazon Prime has a bunch available now. Watching 70s shows I grew up with like Password Plus, Match Game, and just discovered What's My Line, which I'm now also devouring on YouTube.

The Batman & Robin movie. It is just so terribly bad and campy and such a wrong headed approach to Batman that I revel in how awful it is. And George Clooney is sooooo handsome.

I thought Clooney was outrageously miscast so I actually never watched it. Clooney is not a bad actor, IMO, but a very bad fit for that character. Originally Posted by Osiris-Rex

even so... I think I've watched almost every episode of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic". the first two seasons are actually quite well done... but after that it's become something of a guilty pleasure for me.
the other one is "Miraculous Ladybug". I've seen over half of the episodes in the original French. and although it's egregiously formulaic approach to storytelling has improved... it's still awfully predictable and has shamefully bad puns all over the place it's still fun. some of the super villains are laugh-out-loud ridiculous... sometimes it's fun to see what bizarre villain will show up next. it's also got one of the funniest Street Fighter parodies I've ever seen.

Total Divas. I started watching it as the idea of a wrestler's life always sounded weird to me plus it's also seeing women in a very male-testosterone environment so I thought it could make for an interesting show. Then I turned it on, it's no different to any other reality show where it's clearly faked and the attempts to manufacture drama are pathetic. However I keep watching it...

While it's right on the line of "Guilty Pleasure"/"Legitimately Enjoy", Mama's Family.
