Thoughts?

I haven't heard of many of these shows even. Agreed with The Americans being highly rated.

 

[Urblock]

Don't think I've ever seen any of them.

This list is weird. I guess part of it depends on what you consider to be considered in the decade. E.g. things that started in the 2000s and spanned into the 2010s.

Edit> Read the intro paragraph - "If you don’t see yours here, consider that we imposed a “no shows that premiered before 2009” rule on ourselves". I have a bunch that I feel should be here, but I'm not gonna go looking up premiere dates.

It's hard to see anything when you're cross-eyed drunk.

Only ones I've watched are The Americans, Better Call Saul & Mr Robot. Plus some other random episodes of stuff like Nathan For You, Key & Peele, Bob's Burgers, etc. Still need to get around to Game of Thrones one day.

Honestly, with the way Game of Thrones ended, you could just not bother.

I don't know anything about it, but that's good to know. Really don't want to waste my time on 8 seasons of something if the ending sucks.

The first 4 seasons were truly excellent. Best stuff I've ever seen on tv. Next 2 seasons were still really solid, but there was a bit of a decline. Then season 7 was meh to bad, and then season 8 was trash tier straight up.

Seems like they just weren't sure of what to do once they got ahead of the books.

Clickbaity aggregated content. Nothing to really see, IDK why it gets passed on, TBH.

These questions get settled best, some 20 years later IMO. And I think Walking Dead, Stranger Things, GoT, are all going to be top 5 shows. Right now, all the agenda and promotion driven shows(aka: publisists that smooze their clients work into high visibility spaces/lists) are still pushing what is in the coffers, once that dries up and those people move on, garbage starts to fall off these lists.

I don’t watch television.

 

[nvanprooyen]

Silicon Valley should be here.

Def Walking Dead and Stranger Things. Can't comment on GoT as noted.

 

[nvanprooyen]

Ozark should be here too.

ESPECIALLY RuPaul drag show. Oh my, the things that Rango has seen...

Might have been easier to list the shows you think shouldn’t be on the list

It's a top 25 list. I mentioned 4, and one I couldn't comment on. I'm sorry to have bothered you in the middle of making your 1,000th Trubisky shitpost.

 

[Penny Traitor]

Cannot speak to the HBO stuff, but I was shocked to see Bojack at #2. It really is better than it looks on the surface. You expect the comedy, but it's not really a comedy at all.

Atlanta should be in the Top 5, but 6 ain't bad.

Key & Peele/Superstore should be much higher.

American Horror Story is a major snub.

Otherwise, solid list.

 

[Penny Traitor]

The Good Place is another big snub IMO
