Best show of all time

I tend to like the organized crime related series:
Breaking Bad (and its offshoot BCS)
Sopranos
Boardwalk Empire
Peaky Blinders
all very good.
The last two are noteworthy because they deal with the reality of the intertwined worlds of politics and organized crime.

Boardwalk was really really great.
Breaking Bad and the Wire 1/1a
GOTs, sopranos next in line
Succession ( if they close well Sunday night and if they had a Fifth year could have pushed-to be included.
Mad Men in the next group with Better Call Saul.
True Detective could make up some serious ground if season four blows up - still gotta make up for season 2
Sit Coms
Seinfeld well clear of number two.
The Office had a chance till it went off the rails.
Cheers pretty high up there for me

#1 Vikings (Ragnar seasons were the best, but still good after his death)

Victoria Principal. She overvalued he worth as an actress and quit the show so they killed her off. After not finding employment elsewhere she came back and they had to juggle the plot like everybody dreamed she had died.....bogus.
Nice entry. I wouldn't have thought of that. Not because I disagree but because it isn't a series but individual shows with different actors.
Best episode?
Its a good life, starring Bill Mumy. He, along with Angela Cartwright were in every thing produced in the 60's. She also did Twilight episodes. (I sing The Body Electric)They would work together in Lost In Space. She became iconic as Brigitta Von Trap.
She was a good creepy kid. Despite this she was a charming girl and talented actress.

I didn't know that I was your dad. Honestly. She said it was ok. But thanks.
The Office
Scrubs (first 5 seasons or so)
Arrested Development
All In The Family
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (first 6 seasons or so)
Deadwood
Peaky Blinders
Better Call Saul
Rome
Dexter (first 4 seasons)
Yellowstone
Vikings
Breaking Bad
Fargo (seasons 1 & 2)
Ozark (lost interest when Covid hit, had time wait too long for next season)

Never seen Band of Brothers, Sapranos, or Game of Thrones so I'm sure those would be on my list too.

The original Andy Griffith Show. Virtually every actor on that show went on to be immensely successful in subsequent shows.
I was wondering if anyone else on here was a fan of Banshee. Hands down the best action show on tv.
West World - first couple seasons are sooo good they made me question reality
Breaking Bad - never missed a Sunday night
GoT - great show albeit very violent
Me Robot- started off stellar, kind of lost me as it went on
Comedy
Office - amazing but really struggled post Michael Scott
Seinfeld - yep

I keep circling back to Seinfeld. Bored on a weekend in January, turn on Seinfeld. Not feeling good but can't sleep, Seinfeld hits the spot. I know 65 year olds who watch Seinfeld regularly and I have a 16 year old who loves it.

This. It was ground breaking because of its content and wasn't it #1 for 5 or 6 straight seasons ?
It was in the early days of the Fox Network and it was pretty much anything goes back then as they were trying to fill their schedule. Sunday nights were a blast but alas times like that often prove to be ephemeral.
Skinemax in the 80s. Used to watch the crap outta this, occasionally would see a nipple....
There were rumors that a kid in school knew how to unscramble the signal. I found that if I changed the tv channel from 3 to 4, the picture would come in clear in black and white with no sound. That worked.Skinemax in the 80s. Used to watch the crap outta this, occasionally would see a nipple....
