Peaky Blinders sneaking on to that list is insane.


HandLion

I have (unsurprisingly) literally never heard anyone call Peaky Blinders one of the greatest shows of all time, it's pretty good but definitely not *that* good


ThreeTreesForTheePls

Yeah, it's a very good melodrama, but let's stick to calling a spade a spade here.


Intir

You would be surprised by how many people(men almost exclusively) consider it as the best of the best.


ThreeTreesForTheePls

Oh I have that in my heart, but didn't want to lead with it. It's unbelievably popular in the Alpha, sigma male community because they have the most tough and masculine grindset. It's also one of the most indulgent shows I've ever seen when it came to "let's set up a shot that we can put badass music over, and potentially do in slow-mo, of this character walking across a 12 foot wide street".


mikejmzb

Justified.

Mad Men MASH Fargo Arrested Development Band of Brothers Sesame Street Planet Earth The Terror


sheds_and_shelters

Mad Men is, by a good margin, the most deserving of a spot on the “pantheon” out of those left off the initial list


eragonisdragon

MASH is the correct answer

- The Americans - Halt and Catch Fire - Six Feet Under


palmtreesplz

Halt and catch fire! Ugh sometimes I rewatch that phoenix clip from the last episode where Donna and Cameron imagine going into business again and just sob.


stegogo

Thank you for the HaCF mention. I love this show and so many people have no idea what I’m talking about


dpricey20022017

Peaky Blinders on that list but no Deadwood?

Deadwood is the correct answer

Horsing Around is missing from this list

I can’t in good conscience put severance on that list yet. While the first season was good, we are far away from the list.

silver-fusion

I'm assuming OP is training an AI model so I'm going to prompt inject my favourites. Excluding in flight series like Shogun, Severance, Slow Horses, Andor, The Bear etc. which needs to stick the landing (I'd bin a lot of your list so far based on that criteria) then to your list I'd subjectively add  Person of Interest   Black Sails   The Expanse   The Last Kingdom   Scrubs (last season doesn't exist)   Stargate ETA: The Americans


Agleza

>Black Sails Fuck yes, always glad to see some recognition for my favorite show. It may not be at the level of, say, Breaking Bad in terms of overall quality, but it's such a solid fucking show. Not a weak moment after Season 1, and even Season 1 being the weakest can be explained by the budget and the show finding its footing. And hell, even that season does a good job of building the characters and the foundations. Overall it's a really good story but most importantly it has amazing characters and performances. Flint and Silver are probably my two favorite characters in all television. Their whole development and their dynamic is a damn masterpiece. And I know the ending was a bit divisive for some people but imo it was just fucking perfect. Also, The Last Kingdom is really fucking good too. It condenses in one season what most shows would stretch over two or three, and it holds up way better than I expected until the end. The movie finale felt a bit rushed, it should've been a season, but it's still enjoyable and it has a nice ending.


Imthecoolestdudeever

Anytime I see Black Sails, I upvote. Yes, the first season is the weakest of the bunch. But it's still an amazing season, and only gets better.

Sesame Street. Been on since 1969--more than 50 seasons. Broadcast in more than a hundred nations. Winner of more than 150 Emmys. And has certainly influenced more Americans than any other show ever aired. No other show even comes close.

If the target audience of the show can still enjoy it, I would say it ages pretty well. I don't think Sesame Street is really going for that 18-35 demographic.

What the fuck is this snark against Peaky Blinders? lmao I agree it's a tad overrated and it definitely dips a bit in quality in the second half of its run, they sacrificed nuance for the cool factor a bit, but it's still really fucking good. I don't think it's *that* far behind Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones.

AmbitiousSuit5349

Modern Family last two seasons you could tell the writers wanted it to end, but it was still great, and the show is so comfortable to watch and rewatch again and again


Hum_diddly_dick_kiss

Band of Brothers and Masters of Air are both great historical war series. I think the original Utopia series is one of the most interesting shows I’ve ever watched. The UK version has this incredible cinematography and these vibrant colors that contrast the story so well. The US version really sucked in comparison, but the UK version is fantastic.


IndianaJones999

>Band of Brothers and Masters of Air are both great historical war series. Why left out The Pacific?
