Wow… This is actually pretty hard to choose … In no order …

  1. Blackadder (all of them)
  2. Lost (apart from it’s naff ending)
  3. The Expanse
  4. BSG (modern version)
  5. Game of Thrones.

Would of been happier with top 8 as Soap and Happy Days would of made the cut along with Clone Wars …oh well…

Sorry Star Trek TNG – you are down here now :see_no_evil: :see_no_evil:

Don’t watch much TV but my favourite series of all time is …


I guess, they don’t need any introduction, do they?

Still have all seasons on DVD (about 200 episodes … :blush:)

Need to add one as I couldn’t initially remember the name:

Soko Ga Shiritai

Really enjoyed watching this after my short time in Japan. Years ago, it appeared I would be working and living in Tokyo, but that unfortunately came to naught.

Seems it may be available online, so I will have to binge-watch again.

Given that I watch very little TV, I added a couple as a joke: Mel’s Rockpile and the awkwardly translated into Russian TODAY IS MOSCOW are of course hilarious skits from SCTV.

I used to be a big Sopranos fan, but sold my DVDs a year ago. I enjoyed the drama, but began to find it depressing: every character is some iteration of the antihero with redemption refused and/or impossible.

Just my dos centavos.

No one else for SCTV?

No thanks.

I hear you. X-Files was one of those addictive TV series, but it went nowhere and did nothing in the end.

I think Chris Carter wrote himself into a real tough corner that he could not explain out of…aliens and UFOs and conspiracies. Many of his TV episodes and movies were inconclusive and the constant bickering and bantering between Mulder and Scully for “devils advocate” wasn’t for everyone.
