It was up and down but the good seasons were excellent. There are a bunch of shows on that list, some listed by other posters, that weren’t as good.

The whole Michael Shannon story line got silly imo, it was overall a good show

I keep trying to watch it because everyone tells me it's so good...and I just...can't care about anything that's going on. It's Baltimore. The best thing that ever came out of that shithole was John Waters' moustache.

Same here. I've heard it picks up, but I've never gotten to that point apparently.

Nearly half of the top 15 are a joke.

Yeah and where is Sunny. Isn't it the longest running TV show in history and doesn't make the top 30?



I love it's always sunny but MTV the challenge started in 1998. It's always sunny started in 2005

That's a 7 year difference

I've never finished it. I recognize it's well made and worthwhile, but I don't know, it's just so bleak and I just never cared about anyone's outcome enough to stick with it.

, we polled hundreds of stars, showrunners, craftspeople, executives and other industry experts and asked them to vote for the 10 best series that have premiered since Jan. 1, 2000.



Of course they would force feed black shows and feminist slop into these rankings.

30 Rock over The Office?


Because it's better and it also doesn't limp to the finish line.

The Leftovers is better than half that top 10 list. I don’t know where it is on the list because I don’t scroll through them all but it’s top 20 for sure. Top 3 for me.

scrubs and parks and rec are much better than 30 rock.


I agree Scrubs is better; while the Office is good, it's not AS good as people seem to think it is.

Parks and Rec, admittedly, doesn't exist without the Office, but I agree it did it better (and had more likeable characters).

I've seen all of the shows in the top 12 and the only one that is inflated is Fleabag. It was a fine show but not 5th best
