The dictionary defines it as an informal way of saying that something is 'of very poor quality'

1. sentimental, maudlin, melodramatic, corny
2. Any form of entertainment (music, movies) or aesthetic (hair style, photo pose) that the status quo has deemed fully open to ridicule, usually with no explanation. More specifically, the status quo here being that of Generation X. "tacky" and "dated" are closely related words, but far from being exact synonyms.
3.Something that is unintentionally kitschy, tacky, or of poor quality
