I remember that for some reason, the Washington Post hated this show, to the point that their weekly Nielsen ratings report continually listed the name of the show as "My Two Duds". I don't mean that Tom Shales snarked on the name in his column; I mean that they called the show that in the agate type on the TV listings page. I can't recall them doing that for any other show.

EDIT: It looks like it may have been the work of John Carmody, who did snark on that in an October 1987 column. Apparently, the name stuck.
