To ask if you think there is a perfect TV series?

For me it’s BBC’s 1995 Pride and Prejudice. Absolute perfection, I wouldn’t change a thing!

@Edwardandtubbs I love Maid Marion and her merry men. You can still watch it on YouTube

Band of Brothers

So agree, one of the very few things I can watch again and will concentrate on it rather than 'out of the corner of my eye' as I watch most things.
Am I alone in never like Fools and Horses? I get somuch abuse for not worshipping it but the bits I've seen are so unfunny.

Agree about the 1995 Pride and Prejudice. I've watched it again and again.

This Is Us.

I wonder why Yes Minister/Prime Minister never seem to date, so much is applicable now.

I love The Thick of It too - Malcolm Tucker 😍

One of the best written and observed programmes on TV, if anyone mentions a sash window it cracks me up even after all these years. The best part was that she didn't drag it on for dozens of episodes.

Detectorists
The Thick of It
Succession

I quote it all the time. It was perfectly observed and acted.

It should be written dinnerladies (no capital). VW insisted.

I can almost taste the Saturday morning fry-up as we watched this!

Succession. Impeccable.

Fleabag series 2

JudgeJ. If you close your eyes so you don’t see the clothes and hairstyles , Yes Minister could be about today’s government. It just shows how duplicitous and cunning that whole environment has always been.

I listened to some of the original radio shows recentjy. So topical!

I like P&P but I prefer the BBC adaptation of Emma with Romola Garai. And the Detectorists.

Yes, this for sure!

@MorrisZapp
"Godless, starring Lady Mary from Downton Abbey as a gun slinging prairie widow and Jeff Daniels as a psychopathic train robber.

Everything about it is 'chefs kiss', including the ending which pretty much seals off any further episodes."

Agree Godless is fantastic.

I do and it's 'Six Feet Under'.

Frasier, Gavin & Stacey, Father Ted, The Inbetweeners and Outnumbered all immediately spring to mind.

I loved Line of Duty- that was so gripping - spoilt from perfection by the very last episode though.

oh I forgot an honourable mention for Friday Night Dinner too!

Yes!!! This.

I keep thinking of more! Life on Mars!! That was absolutely brilliant.

Desperate housewives!!

Oh I almost forgot Beef. Binge watched the whole thing over a weekend, I was completely hooked by it. Steven Yeun is phenomenal.

The West Wing. Nothing else ever comes close.
