The year’s worst TV

The absolute worst moment on TV this year never even made it to TV. But just the thought of it was so odious, it made the list. Judith Regan’s aborted interview special with O.J. Simpson, titled “If I Did It,” would have aired during sweeps in November and was billed as Simpson’s “hypothetical confession” to the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. Criticism was widespread, with even Bill O’Reilly addressing the special with a Talking Points segment titled, “America Hits Its Lowest Point Ever.” Fox quickly yanked the special from its schedule.  (Michael Yarish / EPA)
