Blackadder has snuck into the top 10. Meanwhile Friends is going surprisingly well, currently rock bottom with 0.8% of the total votes. Definitely a good one to save in the knockouts.

Massively overrated. Boring and predictable number 1 pick in all top tv show lists. It's already comfortably won this and has 4x more votes than Chernobyl. 2x more than Band of Brothers. 3x more than Succession. Yikes.

Shiiiiieeetttttt…..it. Finally I’m not alone. It’s a decent show but nowhere near as good as people make it out.

It's against humanity and the laws of physics not to place The Wire and The Sopranos in the top 3 if you've seen them.

Are you talking about places number 2 and 3? Because The Shield is clearly number 1.
 
How do people that list 10 shows keep missing Breaking Bad out? It can only mean they haven't seen it, which in itself is *mind-blown!*

I think it suffers from being overhyped to people before they've seen it. My expectations were sky high and it didn't meet them. I also found the final season a hefty drop off from 4, which was my favourite. Still a great show.
 
I‘m a little shocked that South Park is getting so many votes.

What's the difference? Surely your favourite shows are the greatest according to you.

Nah not for me, Geoff. I know shows like Lost, Prison Break etc are not great shows but I had great memories of watching them and remember them fondly. Chernobyl was great but I'll never watch that twice.

Simpsons has as many votes as Band of Brothers which tells a lot about voter preferences

Yeah, but the Simpsons are actually good. South Park has a shorter and lower peak and an even sharper decline in quality. And it never really was a show for adults, more for edgy teenagers. I kind of assumed most people stop watching it once they get into their twenties.

It took me 4 attempts to get to episode 6. Don't get me wrong I loved it in the end but I found it very hard to get into initially.

I didn't like it very much is the short answer. The only seasons i geniunely liked were the first and last with everything in between making me want to quit watching the show (which i did for years and years)

I think the first 2 seasons were the best. That’s when it peaked. Large parts of 3 and 4 were a snooze-fest. Season 5 was good. I watched it from when it first aired so I didn’t get caught in the “best show ever” hype train.

It’s a really good show but it’s not even in the same league as The Sopranos, or Mad Men, or The Wire.

I’ve found that Breaking Bad isn’t great for rewatchablilty either. It relies a lot on tension that just isn’t there when you’ve seen it once already. Whereas The Sopranos has a lot more humour and has aged like a fine wine in my opinion.
