No Pushing Daisies?
Andor not in the top ten is clown dookie
I wonder when the list was created
The Expanse. Where’s the fucking Expanse?
I wouldn’t put Breaking Bad over The Wire.
The Wire is, without a doubt, the best written show in television history. If anyone hasn’t seen it, you have to see it.
Nah it totally jumps the shark when Marlo is introduced. The shield is better. Plus it had a whole universe
The writing in Oz might be better.
I wouldn’t put Breaking Bad over many things. I’m still sore I made myself watch the whole thing.
In what world is The Office US higher than The Office UK?
The first few episodes (first entire season maybe) of Office US is worse, but as an entire series there’s little argument that the U.S. version was more engaging, created more diverse and memorable characters, and had much better storylines. Most of this is purely because it ran longer, but it’s really a very different type of show.
Absolutely agreed it’s McDonald’s against a good restaurant, sure one serves more customers but it’s nowhere near the quality
No whose line?
Though the majority of its runtime has been in the 21st century, it initially aired in September of 1998 (British version was back in '88). Every other entry on this list starts at 2000 or later.
No
This is Dicktown erasure! Also, it’s ludicrous that Taskmaster isn’t on here.
No Seinfield?
Seinfeld ran from 1989-98. This is a list of 21st century shows
But gilmore girls is in there? Please dont tell me gilmore girls was on during the 2000s and fuck with my memory
Sheet says 2000-07, starting on the WB and their last season concluded on the CW. Maybe you only saw it on CW?
Holy shit i googled and it started in 2000… my whole life i remembered that show being on in the 90s…wtf
Seinfeld sucked. What a dumb show.
For you
Shocking. Man has opinion and that opinion primarily applies to himself.
I tried. I just couldn’t ever get into it.
So… For you…
Isn’t every comment like that?
The sitcom format in general just doesn’t work for modern audiences. The format needed entirely self contained narratives which could be watched with a whole family - that isn’t what the market demands these days.
I think Seinfield sucked but I think all sitcom sucks, mostly because I didn’t grow up in a house that watched them + moved to streaming before I had my own place.
Wow… and we’re only 1/4 of the way through it. I can’t wait for the AI garbage to rain down on us, and the younger saying… it’s great.
The fact that True Detective is limited only to Season 1 is a testament to plagiarism.
4 was decent. Didn’t give a shit about 2 or 3.
I actually loved 3.
A ton of very questionable choices on this list. Many of these aren’t even prestige TV?
This list is invalid because How It’s Made is suspiciously absent.
Brooks Moore should be a TV star, or a household name.
No Scrubs?? Preposterous
There was a whole song about that
I remember, they " want no scrubs, a scrub can’t get no love from them"
I don’t watch no scrubs. Scrubs is a show you won’t find on my TV.
Hangin out the passenger side of his best friends ride, tryna holla at me
And Brooklyn 99
List compiled by an utter moron. Entirely missing (among others) and vastly superior to most on the list:
- The Expanse
- After Life
- Sex Education
- Firefly
- IT Crowd
Also, despite being controversial, probably worth mentioning:
- South Park
- The Walking Dead
- Z-Nation (imo much better than TWD)
South Park is not eligible as it started airing in 1997.
ridiculous rule for shows that have run longer than everything else on the list, and still popular.
Yeah that thought occurred to me - but since the list is as dumb as it is to begin with, I didn’t bother looking for rules of eligibility.
Yeah the fact that The Office UK is on here and not The IT Crowd just shows they included it due to proximity to The Office US and don’t watch British TV.
scanned the entire list hoping the expanse would pop up.
of course not.
I was hoping see Battlestar GalacticaThat one is on there, I think.
Edit: It’s #37.
Thanks, missed it clearly
did you cry so hard that your tears turned to blood?
i really need to resume watching that show, damn…
Z Nation was so great.
I just started a rewatch tonight after having mentioned it here :) I loved the show and I think it’s time to give it another go. I am surprised how much of the permanent cast is introduced in episode one.
What’s controversial about The Walking Dead? (I only saw the first season).
It just quickly got old and repetitive,completely uninspired rehashing of the same problems and storylines. Season 1 is gold, 2 is decent, don’t bother past that
The torture porn for Season 7 first episode. The show went from splatter / hack & slash to a breach of the psychological contract between film makers and the audience. Instead of cutting away for the ultra violence, they stayed fully on it, turning this franchise from a zombie splatter movie into sadistic torture porn, with the sadism directed at the unsuspecting viewers.
I was able to skip past one of those sections because it was telegraphed in the previous season’s ending, but the next one was intentionally designed to catch the audience unaware and was ultra explicit. I did not want to see this and I never consented to this kind of sadistic fucked up shit to be broadcast onto my screen.
Fuck the makers of that franchise, fuck AMC and fuck everyone involved in that decision for all eternity.
Edit: Be grateful that you didn’t have to watch that.
Well now I kind of want to watch it.
I felt like it was an overcorrection of the season 6 finale where they left it on that shitty cliffhanger of who died. So they were like “well you want answers, we’ll give ya answers!!!”
But yeah it was bad.
Luckily it seems they were punished for it in terms of ratings. I honestly felt abused after being exposed to that scene, without a warning to close my eyes or skip ahead.
You can stop there, The first season is gold. After that TWD doesn’t have a clue what to do with his premises and becomes stagnant
