Idk the shows between breaking Bad and GoT. Btw. Where is the walking dead?

I’ve haven’t seen the vast majority of these so I can’t speak for their quality.

Some I’ve started but haven’t finished and the quality varies drastically.

I’ve only seen four of these to completion (Breaking Bad, Mad Men, Mare of Easttown and Baby Reindeer) only two of which (Breaking Bad and Mad Men) I would recommend.

But the biggest questions on my mind: why would you compile such a list when there’s still 8 decades left in this century? Will television as a medium still exit in 2101?

I’m curious how they made the list… It couldn’t have been just some intern / writer putting down their top 100? There had to be some sort of stats involved no? Like number of people watching? Number of weekly watchers? Impact on online discussions? I don’t see what state it could have been which would have ignored so many other shows.

No anime on the list means they’re just uncultured.

Who puts a limited series next to a tv show?

Someone who doesn’t know what the fuck good tv is that’s who.

I don’t agree with the list, but what is with the check boxes. Where’s the box for “this show sucked.”

Lmao @ The OA.

That’s the one where they prevented a school shooting through the magic of interpretive dance right?

I’ve watched almost none of these. But I’ve seen a lot of them advertised - hard. This feel like promotional material. I’d bet all of these are currently streaming on varying services. I mean looook at all these shows you haven’t seen. Do you want to be the only one who hasn’t seen PEN15? If you don’t keep paying higher and higher monies to your streaming overlords you’ll miss the the in progress award winning shows. Do you want to be a social pariah?

Atlanta? No fucking way.

No Young Sheldon? Wtf

True Detectives (SEASON ONE)

True Detective shouldn’t even be considered a series. Just an 8-part miniseries with 3 more fan fiction spins afterwards.

Vince Vaughn as a cop was the worse TV in HBO. I bet there is a star at the lobby when they killed that character.

I was discussing this list with my wife yesterday - from the other comments we’ve watched more than the average person here. I’d say we’ve seen 4 out of every 5 shows at least one season and probably finished about 20% of them (with minor exceptions like spin offs or movies or new seasons in the last few years with a hiatus).

What struck me was the inclusion of Suvivor and Ru Paul - I don’t doubt their cultural impact and significance, nor their importance towards their fans - but as a mark of quality of what a TV experience can be, considering performances, risk-taking, writing depth, cinematography, music, costuming, editing, props design, imagination and ingenuity - I wouldn’t have included those in the Top 100.

The Good Place should be ranked 1st because the list is subjective and I disagree with it, also I haven’t watched most of these shows. Community would be in 2nd place.

So apparently, the 21st Century is already over, and pretty much every good show is made in English. Got it.
