not many people watch Parks and Rec? That surprises me. A great majority of my friends watch that and Community. I really just don't find either of them funny. I guess it's similar to my opinion toward The Office-I feel like everyone around me loves the show and I just really don't find it funny at all.

Of the shows on this list I really only watch Mad Men and GoT. However, I really miss shows like Frasier and The Simpsons (back when it was good).

I couldn't get into Breaking Bad. Not sure why. I just never got past the first two episodes. I love Justified though. Other than girls (because I have never seen it) I think its a really solid list.

This is a pretty good list. I would fit Orphan Black somewhere between 6-8 though, even there has only been one season I'm in love with that show. Boardwalk Empire and Doctor Who would also be on my list, and I'd get rid of Louie and Justified, even though I really enjoy Justified.


Oh my God, Orphan Black is shockingly good. I haven't finished the season but really - it is surprisingly excellent. I don't watch Doctor Who because it's too loaded with history to really step in, it's intimidating.

Boardwalk Empire just doesn't cut it. It's a decent show masquerading around like a great show. I'd say it's something like the 20-15th best show on TV. I watching because the production is so slick and some of the actors are very charismatic but I don't think it belongs on the list.




Always nice to find other people enjoying Orphan Black. More people really need to be watching it. Maybe someone not so lazy as I will start a thread here on TL someday
For anyone unfamiliar with it, at least give it a try. Tatiana Maslany picked up a Best Actress from the Critics Choice Television Awards, so nice that she is getting some recognition for such an awesome performance (even if it is from a fairly new association in the BTJA).

A very fair list, except for #4. That show does nothing for me.

Oh, and I think some people are mistaking OP's list for all-time top shows. This is a list of shows currently running.

I think this is a great post, and not just because you agree with me about 65% of the way. I did not hate the sexposition - it's part of HBOs culture and about as tasteful as some of George Martin's erotica, no? Did they overdo it? Yeah, probably - but their is SO much story to explain. How many non-reading watchers of the show do you think can even tell you who Lysa Tully is? They have no idea - and Littlefinger is going there now! Unless you said, "the mom with the weird kid that breastfeeds," most people watching Game of Thrones are just watching a spectacle.

I'm certainly not gonna champion the tastefulness of GRRM's erotica, but I think it has different problems than the show's awkward use of sex. My problem with the worst sexposition scenes wasn't that they were tastelessly done (on the contrary, some of them, like Viserys' bathtub scene, were both tasteful and hot as fuck), it was that they broke my suspension of disbelief. They were so transparently thrown in without regard for anybody's actual motivation that I was thrown out of the viewing experience. You're right that scenes like that are part of HBO's culture, but that's part of the problem, I think...when one of those scenes came along, I suddenly remembered that I wasn't peering through a window into the culture and problems of Westeros, I was watching a pretty good show on HBO. Which is exactly what good television is trying to avoid, especially alternate-world fantasy television.

GRRM's sex scenes are just poorly written and gross. Totally different issue.

(P.S. I was disappointed at how brief the Jaime+Cersei reunion scene was in 3.10, but I gotta admit I didn't miss the menstrual blood-soaked twincest thing.)

Glad to be of service. Sorry we can't be friends since you hate Parks and Recreation and I have an unfavourable opinion of people who savour the use of "u" in words like "humour;" I can't help but colour at the distasteful flavour when I read it.

Can you elaborate on why Mad Men S6 has been a failure? You allude to it but never go into depth. I've found S6 pretty good, though maybe a little bit ham handed in conveying its message (or maybe I've just improved my ability to see it, i'm not quite sure).

As in all things, failure here is a relative term. The major failures here are, in my opinion, the tragic mishandling of Dr. Martin Luther King's assassination, Don and Sylvia's relationship, the lack of "classic" Mad Men execution in the first couple of episodes.

I can get over the Don and Sylvia stuff and even the audacity with which Mad Men approaches race. But the issue with Season 6, and I'm not sure who else agrees with me, is Don Draper himself. While I appreciate Don Draper: Existential Nightmare Man, he has simply become an unlikable character. Remember in Season 1 when Mad Men came out and everyone wanted to be Don Draper? To act and dress like him because he was the quintessential avatar of American Masculinity? I think we can all agree that that Don Draper is dead - Matthew Weiner has taken great delight in tearing him down before our eyes, exposing him as a failure as a father, a husband, a coworker, a boss, a lover. Everything a man ought be, Don Draper has not been that.

Of course, this teardown is systematic and intentional. Mad Men is no longer that show where we look at Don Draper as a hero. But this doesn't mean it doesn't produce problems - primary among them? It's hard to love a show when you dislike the main character. The amazing thing about season 4 and season 5 was the way Mad Men still managed to be incredibly subtle, nuanced in its characters' failures. I'm reminded of "At the Codfish Ball" and "Far Away Places" and "The Suitcase." Season 6 hasn't produced anything close to the quality of those episodes, at least in my opinion.

EDIT: Also, in regards to motif, I find this season a bit heavy handed. I would say Season 4 was one of transformation, Season 5 of disappointment and Season 6 of reflections/cycling. That'd be a different discussion though.

I think with regards to Don Draper, its the whole process of eventual disillusionment with the character. Very much how you would see a narcissist (which Don Draper is). Its the whole first impression "wow this guy is amazing, he's successful, handsome, has a family" blah blah blah and then as we go along we see all the cracks, the bullshit, the manipulation, the lies etc. Which we then eventually turn the other way, we start to resent and try to push them away.

TBH I would be fine hating the main character (though i don't hate Don Draper, i find him interesting)

I guess taste is different. I do hate GIRLS, I don't know a few and I think Dexter should be in there as well as Game of Thrones must be placed higher. Breaking Bad to me is worse than game of thrones, but as I said, different people have different taste.

You are one weird cat. I really like many other shows that are not on the list and some of your shows are fail

1.) Girls is one of the worst shows I had ever watched. I suffered through 3 episodes and EVERY character annoyed the shit out of me. The story line and plot was poor and the character development was piss poor. This is not the female entourage it is just plain bad.

2.) Mad men is super slow and boring. Many people I have talked to agree with me. It just isn't my cup of tea.

3.) Where is the walking dead or Homeland. Both of these shows are top notch. They are really enjoyable and super well done. I can always watch a new episode of these two shows and be glued to my seat.

4.) You tried to point out you don't like suits because you dont like the channel. Suits and while collar are both fun and enjoyable shows. Not sure it would make the top 10 though.

Eventually?! Would you not say that he is disillusioned now? No, I don't mean to say that I hate Don Draper, but I think that we can conclude that Don Draper can never really be happy - thus, what do we want for him? What do we want from him? We certainly don't sit around hoping for him to establish a real relationship with his daughter or with Peggy or with Megan. That's why we feel that longing when Don and Joan give each other that look at the hospital or when Don kisses Peggy's hand when she leaves. He can't be happy, and there's something dragging about that this season.

Oh, I don't think you're using the term "character development" properly - especially if you think calling it "female entourage" is some sort of a compliment. Girls has excellent character development. The "plot" is certainly nothing to praise, it's a meandering show. You can hate the characters but I think you're prejudiced against the show - most likely because of background. I think that's okay - it's not really an issue. We watch TV through our eyes, which is our own filter.

It's clear you like certain kinds of shows, slick, poppy maybe with a zombie or two? Maybe a cool little intro song. Some dashing fellas? Suits is fine, it's an easy watch but don't make it what it isn't.

No I am telling you that the show is just flat out bad. The characters are not very interesting and are actually very annoying. I am saying people called it that and it is neither a good show nor the female entourage. I like all types of shows. I have watched tons of different ones. Some of the best shows ever for me are Rome and the Wire which are no longer on the air. Don't try and categorize what shows I like. You like a specific type of show and have some peculiar ideas that is for sure.

Well do we talk about a objective review of shows and how they are written, filmed and overall produced or are we talking about our top shows? Because I would argue that what you do is note your top 10. You don't generally criticize on general aspects of film/movie making.

So yes, taste begins when you stop being objective. While some people would say its not even possible to be objective in a critic about a movie or series. I don't think Breaking bad is worse than Game of Thrones, its different. I thought the first season (development of characters) was very poorly written, slow and unentertaining while the development of the characters in Game of Thrones is excellent, dynamic and very twisted.

Overall I would say I like both settings and both series but GoT kept me glued to the seat more. And yes, didn't like girls at all :x

I think Girls will get a lot haters for sure. It's because they portray the characters in a brutally honest way... they're "real" people instead of the usual well (or not so well) scripted characters that we're used to seeing on tv.

For some odd reason nobody seems to be talking about The Americans which i think is one of the best new shows.

I don't know a lot of shows from your list, therefore I thank you, I have some to check out.
I know only Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones which I really like, I like dark but I also like comedy.
There are actually a lot of mainstream shows like Walking Dead or Shameless which I find really bad, so it is a good sign that you have included neither.

What I currently watch and would include to the list is House of Cards and Black Mirror.
Both shows are rather dark, especially Black Mirror, but it definitelly has a lot of depth and emotions, although it may not be for everyone.

House of cards is currently not on and I don't know if they are going to make another season. I just thought this list was for active shows that will have more seasons. Also It is a great show just don't think its top 10. Really enjoyable and dark though as you have said.
