Best series you have watched, and why

[JellySky]

Rivals I think for me, nostalgia AND how the other half live!

White Lotus, again, how the other half live!

Game of Thrones. I love everything about it, the imagination to create an entire new world with a history like what GRRM created that gave me goosebumps at times. I could and do watch it repeatedly! Nothing compares.

Also, a distant second - Breaking Bad.

The English
Landman
Deadwood
Justified

Great plot great characters

It would be for me too @mtobrokeme but even you must admit the final series is dire. I was absolutely devastated

I'm just watching The Shield for the first time - started Season 7 this week.

Best thing I've watched in ages.

The west wing. Sopranos. Schitts creek. The newsroom. Broadchurch. Big Love. Ludwig.

So many good series. Adding

W1A and The Capture

Scandal. It’s bloody brilliant!

Oh, and Better Call Saul - I liked it MUCH better than Breaking Bad, though I liked that too. Much more character driven.

Frasier
I, Claudius
Brideshead Revisited - but after numerous rewatches I thought it lost a lot when Sebastian sort of disappeared. I thought Anthony Andrews was absolutely perfect as Sebastian.
Medium with Patricia Arquette - I was obsessed by this at the time of its airing, but had to stop watching when I read how they intended to finish the series.
Yes, Minister/Prime Minister - I had to edit to add this when I was reminded by someone else's posts.
Star Trek - as a SF obsessed 12 year old, it ruled my life for three years. Now, Captain Kirk or William Shatner - don't know which one or if it's a combination of the two - makes me want to vomit.

V - I love sci-fi, but that was terrifying. I am a cosy star trek , not an Alien or Stranger things sci-fi fan. But love love Resident Alien.

West Wing.

didn’t go downhill ever imho. Great storylines and acting.

ER also great but the early days were best.

The West Wing
The Bear
ER
Spooks
handmaids Tale
Line of Duty
Homeland

all so brilliantly acted with suspense and a touch of dark humour.

friends for the humour and comfort value.

Celeb Traitors for the iconic ending.

The Masked Singer for the laughs.

Two of my favourite moments with teen DD were introducing her to The West Wing and us discovering The Bear together.

Dallas - in position on the sofa and waiting for every episode.

Breaking Bad & Better Call Saul.

The Sopranos - binged & bought DVDs

Cold Feet - killer ending.

Happy Valley - again, in position and waiting for the start.

I did like Orange is the new Black, but stopped watching before the last series,
same with White Lotus, Killing Eve, Handmaidens Tale, Mad Med etc, I found myself snoozing more than watching. They all started so well.

Ray Donovan

Thirtysomething
Xfiles
After the flood
Cagney and Lacey

Forgot Schitts Creek - so funny and addictive.

Line of Duty - classic British cop thriller.

Desperate Hosewives - popped up today on Facebook.

ER was one of my all time faves
Friends, I've it watched so many times.
The West Wing
Sopranos
Breaking Bad
The Fall
Peaky Blinders
Narcos
Downton Abbey
Greys Anatomy
Scandal
Lost
This Life
This City is Ours is one of the best things I've seen recently, can't wait for season 2.

Bates Motel. Great storyline and slow unravelling of Norman’s character.

It certainly hasn't aged well if you compare it to American Politics today!
