What is the best TV series from start to finish?

[Soubriquet]

Gotta be

Buffy the Vampire Slayer
The Good Place

there are other shows I love but I think these two don’t have a single bad episode. It’s all brilliant right from the pilot to the finale

Band of Brothers

Our Friends in the North
Ghosts
ER
Chernobyl
Slow Horses (so far)

Desperate Housewives

Better Call Saul.

Good Call!

Game of Thrones
Line of Duty
Breaking Bad

omg yes!

'If you were in an accident I wouldn't stop for a beer'
'If you were in an accident I wouldn't stop for red lights'

SUCH a great programme!

Did you see Beer Bad in s4 of Buffy?? Or see any episode featuring Riley?!

I love that show, it's one of my favourites. But it's good several skippable episodes, particularly in seasons 4 and 6.

Mad Men
The West Wing
Kingdom (Korean)
Andor

I loved Schitt's Creek but it got dull at the end. Buffy was glorious but patchy (ugh Riley).

Pride and Prejudice BBC 1995. Absolute perfection!

Wentworth

Detectorists

Happy Valley
Yellowstone
Downton abbey

Malcolm in the Middle.

Fawlty Towers

Homeland
Line of Duty
The Fall

Peep show

Slow Horses
Sons of Anarchy
Line of Duty
Happy Valley
Kin

Just been watching Criminal Record and enjoyed that

Happy Valley
Mash
Schitt's Creek
Whitechapel
Andor

Oh and Broadchurch

Sopranos. I wish I could find something better.

There are lots of shows on this thread that I love but very few are great from beginning to end, in my opinion. For example, Brooklyn 99 is one of my favourites but I don't like most of the last season; it feels rushed and there's a lot of recycled jokes for the sake of a cheap laugh. I have also been a Grey's Anatomy fan since ~2007 and I have rewatched it countless times but the later seasons are Not Great. It has a weird, sterile tone and I stopped caring about any of the characters

For me, Schitt's Creek and Better Call Saul are brilliant to the end. I was really affected by BCS ending - I felt genuine grief.

Breaking Bad

Better Call Saul (it's very much a slow burner and the initial couple of seasons I did think about giving up a few times but when you get to the end you realise what an absolute masterpiece the whole thing is).

Motherland

Fleabag

I may destroy you

Normal People - one of the very rare times a series/film is so much better than the book.

Happy Valley
The Sopranos
Breaking Bad
The Crown
Ozark
True Detective - Night Country
Animal Kingdom
2 Doors Down
