I know you said bush but then you said tall.

I like these too but they're toxic for pets. Not sure if this is a consideration for OP, but thought I'd mention it.

I thought this topic might be in the wrong forum

But anyway......Viburnum

I like ligustrum, but it doesn't create near the privacy of viburnum. It drops leaves and becomes visually porous.

Just plant a bunch of Chinese privet like that other idiot

FYI a lot of my viburnums did not do well in the freeze last year

Chinese privit(ligustrum sinense) grows the best/fastest in DFW’s harsh conditions.

Wax leaf privit or ligustrum lucidium grows bigger.

Red tips are great but they retake several years to yield privacy. I see lots of diseased ones but they aren’t dying.

Now if they’re going in front of your fence instead of behind it, maybe wax Myrtle, viburnum or cherry laurel is better, or some Hollies if you have the time. I’m too worried about fire to plant entire rows of wax myrtle though.
