Speaking of jackasses, Jackass should have made it as well.

Stopped at Orange is the new Black, show was ok but not even close to sniffing the top 100.

Yeah I don't know about that. Among others.



wait a second...I was about to hit submit and see that broad city is listed? As a top 100 show of all time? Good heavens no. Just no.

This is the same rag that put The Edge ahead of Muddy Waters Albert Collins and Knoffler in its top 100 axe men of all time.

The Edge

Broad City is the most egregious intruder on the entire list- and I actually like it.

Overall, much too influenced by recent years.

Should not be on the list:

97) "Portlandia"
95) "Key & Peele"
91) "Broad City"
88) "Party Down"
75) "American Crime Story: The People vs. O.J. Simpson"
73) "Transparent"
72) "Girls"
71) "Mr. Show"
68) "The State"


We are talking the top 100 shows of ALL TIME. Most of these shows don't have the audience or the staying power to crack the top 100.

Rated too high:

74) "The Ren & Stimpy Show"
60) "Beavis and Butt-head"
52) "The Colbert Report"
51) "Fargo"
45) "Battlestar Gallactica"
37) "Orange Is the New Black"
25) "Veep"
23) "Deadwood"
14) "The Larry Sanders Show"
4) "Mad Men"

Rated too low:

96) "Gunsmoke"
94) "Jeopardy"
92) "American Idol"
90) "The Dick Van Dyke Show"
87) "Doctor Who"
65) "Happy Days"
53) "The Bob Newhart Show"
46) "The Mary Tyler Moore Show"
59) "Hill Street Blues"
58) "Roots"
36) "Law and Order" - criminally underrated (no pun intended)
33) "South Park"
20) "Cheers"
18) "Star Trek"
12) "Game of Thrones"

Not on the list?

SportsCenter
SportsNight
Rome
The Cosby Show - Yeah, I know... but this show RULED its time slot.
The Carol Burnett Show
Homicide
Everybody Loves Raymond
and last but not least... THE MOTHERfrickING ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW !?!?!!!

Overall, I think this list is a big ol' pile of crap.

Most of that list is asinine. For instance:



funny my first thought was I guarantee this thread will be full of bitching and moaning about how this show is ranked to high and that show is too low and boom, the first post after the OP didn't disappoint

My other thought was AWESOME the Chappel show and Beavis and Butthead made it. I'd have The Wire #1.

Waaaaay too motherfricking low. And Girls being ranked higher. That's some stuff precision engineered to piss me off.
The rest of the list isn't that bad, but man, those two chap my arse.
