Big GoT fan but I don’t think this even made my list purely because of how drastically it fell off a cliff. Was pretty trash from season 5 onwards and seasons 7 & 8 were awful, culminating in probably the worst ending of all time. At its peak it was probably the biggest series ever, but it’s legacy has taken a beating since.No. 6 - Game Of Thrones

Television RedCafe's Favourite TV Shows Of All Time Contest (THE RESULTS)

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Nothing will ever be so good, so wholesome, subversive, brilliant, funny, honest, critical and emotional as the first ten seasons of the Simpsons. Especially the shows peak from season 3 to 8 is in my opinion the greatest show tv has ever seen. I love the show. It made good times even funnier and bad times a little brighter.
Never been a fan of GoT. Even the first seasons I watched had already enough tedium dragged out to fill up time imho. Pretty soapy stuff most of the times too.
I'd read the books long before the GOT show and when it came out I thought it's mediocre at best, given the material. I can see people liking it so much if they haven't read the books though.
I doubt anyone under the age of 20 right now has any interest in it unless it's their 40 year old dads still sat watching yellow cartoon guy saying D'oh for the last 30 years.
Are we out of touch? No. It’s the children who are wrong.
Bonjourrrrrrrr you TikTok watching vape monkeys!
6th season was absolutely incredible with some of the best episodes in the entire show, and the finale is the best episode ever.
The last two seasons were spectacularly bad though, almost like bad fan fiction.
Cant take any show seriously that pulls the rug from under its viewers in the way GoT does.
They had the option for more episodes and more time and they chose to show contempt for the fans and just rush through 6 steaming piles of shit.

Bolded bit is incredibly reductive and you know it. I forgot how much of a big depresso you are when you enter threads.
A lot of shows decline and it's normal but it's rare to watch something and think the writers were paid to intentionally sabotage and completely burn it to the ground to the point a parody would look better. It would have taken someone who absolutely hated every single fan of the show to make Jaime Lannister say a line like "I never really cared about them" after that entire series. Couldn't hate the show more after that ending if I tried and that's from someone who pretty much has every single scene of at least the first four seasons memorized.
It is what it is. If you mean I don't sugarcoat things unnecessarily then yeah, I'm ok with it. It's hardly surprising to see a show like that being super popular in a forum where the average age is like mid 40s.
True Detective's one series was a complete, self contained story. It didn't matter that the second series was bad. Same with Blackadder having a bad first season, it didn't hurt the later ones. I find it pretty hard to care about any of Game of Thrones now. The bad seasons hurt the good ones much more. Doesn't help that these looming threats that add jeopardy in early seasons turned out to be such a damp squib. There was always a mystery box, anticipation element to the show that needed a payoff.
If you haven't seen episodes like King-Size Homer, Mr. Plow or Deep Space Homer at least 20+ times I don't know what you do in this thread.
GoT had a dragon in it. I think.
It's testament to just how bloody good this show is that it made 9th on a forum where half the users probably weren't born when it came out. Still brilliant after all these years.No. 9 - Black Adder

Oh thank feck it’s not number 1.
One of my favourite shows ever. Those last 8 episodes were just the best TV I have ever seen.
Compared to 1&2, this was only in a handful of lists as number 1 yet wasn't too far off, points-wise, to number 2...

So it’s between The Wire and The Sopranos. As it should be.
Mad Men is better than both. The Sopranos possibly the most overrated show of the list.
Robbed
Over rated as feck. Meh show.
I was going to give out about it too but seems like its covered
Correct result. It's great but Sopranos and The Wire both did more overall.
I revoke your win.
Incredible show. Whether people think it's overrated or underrated is on them really. Show can't help how people talk about it.No. 3 - Breaking Bad

Amazing character development and superb acting from Cranston all the way through. It's a generational show but just not quite at the level of the top 2. Right position imo. Ozymandias one of the best episodes ever. And Crawl Space. Every character in the universe had so much depth, their motivations felt real and everything had a purpose. Love it.
top class wumming
Top 2 coming up...
Or perhaps it's also because we're one of the few countries who don't dub. Imagine making blackadder work in spanish or german voiceover.

Haven't seen Sopranos but The Wire is very good. Not my favourite but it's an excellent show.
And that is that..
Winning while having lesser points than 23 other shows. The true GOAT.
The psychology of criminality vs the sociology of criminality. I lean slightly in favor of the Sopranos but there’s really nothing in it, both worthy winners.
I think the top 10 is full of shows that are clearly very well regarded amongst most places and the top 5 especially can all have arguements for being the best show.
Sopranos won on average rating and number of 1sts, the true winner.
Fixed it. Arsehole
