Freaks and Geeks is so overrated. Just bc everyone involved did great things later doesn't mean the actual show was that good.



Hold the frick up. That show was great.

Friends isn't a top 75 show

Golden Girls is criminally low
Deadwood? give me a break. Not a top 150 show.


Yea, I'd say Friends is around 78 and Deadwood is like 162.....

Well that's why I said lists like this are ridiculous bc it's so subjective. I've tried Freaks and Geeks numerous times bc it's lauded by so many and is so often mentioned in the same breath as shows I love. But it just doesn't click with me, an episode and a half in and I'm already feeling like it's a grind.

Maybe it's bc I'm not a huge fan of Apatow's "real life is comedy but it's also serious" mode that he sometimes goes into, Like This is 40 or Funny People. I like my comedies smart, but I also like to actually laugh and Freaks and Geeks just isn't funny to me, Give Archer, Arrested Development, IASIP, Community, The Office, South Park over Freaks and Geeks 100/100. But that's just me

No Rick and Morty? List is shite.

If any anime deserves to be on this list it is Cowboy Bebop. Avatar should be on here too especially if you lump together the Last Airbender and Legend of Korra.

Doctor Who is way too low, especially with the success the show has had starting with the 9th, and especially the 10th Doc (Tennant).

The Big Bang Theory is well within my top 100. Also, I don't care for Friends but I thought it would be in there.

My top 5


1 - Breaking Bad
2 - Lost
3 - MASH
4 - Seinfeld
5 - Sopranos

Sopranos, Mad Men, Friends, The Wire and Spartacus are all close.

I'd switch them around, but I have no problems with sopranos #1, especially if they took into consideration its impact on tv as it ushered in a new era.

They also got #3 correct.

I love Lucy should be top 5 though.

No duel in DBZ was even close to this, and it's only a minute and a half

Goku v Freiza and Gohan v Cell are both better than that.
