OT Best TV Series Ever....

[THE HCP]

Not sure if we’ve ever had one of these before. But the GoT thread got me to thinking.

Best TV Series Ever.....

I don’t have a favorite, too tough. Some of my faves in no particular order
The Wire
Mad Men
The Shield
Sopranos
Breaking Bad
Seinfeld
The Office
LOST

Love to hear yours.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Seinfeld.

Does the first 7 seasons of The Simpsons count or do you have to include all 345 seasons of crap?

 

[THE HCP]

I think we have to take into account the ENTIRE body of work.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

The Wire
Babylon 5 (which story arc style of writing directly led to shows like The Wire and Breaking Bad. It showed that audiences were intelligent and stories and plot lines didn't need to wrap up at the end of each episode.)

 

[SlyPokerDog]

The Shield

I really liked The Shield when it first aired but for some reason that show did not age well. I tried watching it again a few years ago and stopped after a few episodes.

It is a cartoon but the prime Simpsons is better than any show ever made.

No tv and no beer make Homer something something....

Go crazy?

Don't mind if I do!!!!!

You seem more like the Ren and Stimpy type.

barely saw five minutes of that show.

Simpsons was incredibly intelligent.

Don't quit your day job chief, whatever that is.

There's no slams in here. Sly is too much of a gentleman to call you out on this but I will.

That wasn't a slam. BM and I are cool.

Sorry, I got carried away from some anger provoked in me by a normally nice guy acting like a jerk over on OLive. I was ready to knock his lights out even though I can no longer do it being that I spend most of my time either in a wheel chair or on the couch or at my computer in a Costco leather swivel chair.

Sorry Bodyman, I got carried away. I apologize.

I shoulda put it in quotes. It was a line from the Simpsons that was I think post prime episodes.

It was a chili cookoff and Homer drank some candle wax. He then tried some super spicy chili made by Chief Wiggum.

After casually downing the fiery chili he kinda mumbled that line.

It is hard to describe accurately but it was hilarious

All great shows. I Love Lucy is easy to forget because it is soooo old. And there's a lot of domestic violence jokes. It was still great.

Were almost finished with season 9. Watch it on Netflix after work most nights.

Consistently hilarious show.

 

[BigGameDamian]

 

[andalusian]

In addition to the ones mentioned before I think sons of anarchy is underrated.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Six Feet Under was pretty good.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

The Office.

 

[THE HCP]

In addition to the ones mentioned before I think sons of anarchy is underrated.

Loved that show.

 

[Mediocre Man]

I still think Game of Thrones is the best show ever.

Lots of other great choices in this thread though

 

[Orion Bailey]

West wing.

End thread.

 

[Shaboid]

Part of me wants to put this in green font, but, Spongebob Squarepants.

If we're including kids' series', I have to put in a vote for Phineas and Ferb.
