What are your top 5 series of all time?

[Calistan]

It's pretty hard to narrow it down. Mine are (at this moment anyway)

Utopia
Dr Who
This is England
Queer as folk
Buffy

It's really hard to narrow down, I bet I have forgotten loads.

oh yes not only but also :
Sherlock
I May Destroy You
Fleabag
Dr Who (with David Tennant/Matt Smith)

Not sure really, and older ones do fade in your mind with time. But anyway, assuming we're going for fiction, maybe

The Last Kingdom
Happy Valley
Unforgotten
The Sins (set in an undertakers - it was very thought-provoking and I still think of some of the issues in it)
Blackadder Goes Forth

Ah yes,
Stranger Things
Dark
River
Dinnerladies
Yes Minister
Heroes

I'm getting ideas looking through other people's answers.

Handmaid's Tale.
Happy Valley.
Vikings
Royle Family.
Ab Fab

This is really hard, so many have been brilliant, some not so good but no less significant in my life.

The West Wing - The first box set I binge watched, still have them all ok dvd but no longer own a dvd player 😂

The Sopranos - loved this, RIP James Gandalfini

Breaking Bad - I hated much the first season of this but once Walter went rogue I was hooked

These three win hands down as my favourites as an adult.

I also have to add Scandal, as much as it is bilge in comparison to West Wing it saw me through the tired toddler years and was my escapism.

Now I am torn ER and The Files featured very heavily in my teen years and I am currently obsessed either Greys Anatomy. Clearly ER is the best of all of those but I would say Greys has better binge capacity. I tried to watch the X Files again recently and it held no appeal for me clearly a teenage thing. I think it will have to be ER it made me laugh and cry in every episode.

So my list is:

ER
The West Wing
The Sopranos
Breaking Bad
Scandal

I forgot Afterlife and Derek

And Dopesick, many more !

To the Manor born
Fawlty Towers
Desperate Housewives
Cold Feet
Friends

So many good one. I have another 5 😬
