Top 5 TV Series

[Viker]

Breaking Bad
Boardwalk Empire
The Sopranos
Sons of Anarchy
Peaky Blinders
(Love me some criminals)

The series premiere of the Walking Dead is my favorite series premiere and if they'd stayed in step with season one and had kept Darabont the Walking Dead would/should have been my fave. I still liked it even during its slower times, but ....

I try to avoid doom and gloom and murder and mayhem, or idiotic sit-coms. So my list is a bit different from most of these.

Better Things
Reservation Dogs
Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
Ted Lasso
Gilmore Girls
Wednesday
The Kominsky Method

Some folks have mentioned Yellowstone. Any good? I'm looking for something to get me through the winter months.

I really like anything by Taylor Sheridan, including Yellowstone. But also the offshoots of it. Pretty sure I watched Yellowstone and Vikings during the cold months.

I also liked the IT Crowd a lot.

 

[PureX]

Absolute no-gos for me! ...

anything with zombies

anything that's trying to be funny

anything with super bad guys

anything trying to be "woke"

any kind of "(dysfunctional) reality TV"

anything involving humans with 'super-powers'

anything that is badly written, poorly acted, and/or pathetically unoriginal

I though it was very good. But was running out of steam the last couple of seasons.

Haven't yet. Planning on it. Hear it's good.

I despise "reality" TV.

I despise "reality" TV.

Ugh, me too. I will not watch it.

I have a friend who watches it nonstop and leaves the TV on at her home even. I can't stand it!

Dateline

 

[Mock Turtle]

A bit difficult for us oldies, and not just five, but from my UK perspective - and all I would watch if on again:

M.A.S.H (Watching this most nights now given the storylines and acting are so good)
Peaky Blinders
Fawlty Towers (Only two series unfortunately)
Blackadder
Porridge
The Line of Duty

 

[bobhikes]

Mash
Dr Who(9-12)
Star Trek The Next Generation
Scrubs
Avatar The Last Air Bender (Nick cartoon)

 

[Trailblazer]

Nobody likes the kinds of programs I like, which only further confirms the fact that I am very different from most people.

 

[Viker]

Breaking Bad
M.A.S.H.
When the Walking Dead hadn't ran it's course.
The Sopranos
The Addams Family

See, I change a little over time. But Breaking Bad is the greatest show ever. LoL

I divide my favorite TV series into two categories: paranormal and non-paranormal.

My top 5 favorite paranormal-related TV series are:

Supernatural

Ghost Hunters
Kindred Spirits
Paranormal Caught on Camera

Honorable Mention: Stranger Things

My top 5 favorite non-paranormal TV series are:

Cobra Kai
The Crown
Downton Abbey
Star Trek: Picard
Star Trek: The Next Generation

Honorable Mention: Monk

I really enjoyed Star Trek:The Next Generation and the 3 seasons of Star Trek: Picard was really good on Paramount+. I really liked Monk, who was well acted by Tony Shalhoub. He turned a mental disorder into an asset. I really liked that the murder of his beloved Trudy was solved at the end.

I watched Ghost Hunters, but the syfy version back before the one on the Travel Channel. If there is a disconnect between the name of the channel and what is actually on there, the Travel Channel is on top. Travel Channel is spook central. What's Ancient Aliens doing on the History channel?

 

[Watchmen]

I forgot what I posted last time. Today I post the following:

Star Trek
Breaking Bad
Ozark
Shogun
Peaky Blinders

Other honorable mentions:

Bloodline (season 1)
Freaks & Geeks
Roseanne
