re: Official "Must See" TV Thread including Tiers (to make binge-watching easier)

Leftovers
Despite the critical acclaim, one of the best shows few people have ever seen. I guess it was too dark and weird for mainstream consumption. And people probably thought they were going to get Lost 2.0 from Lindelof.
Still belongs on this list.

Just a small suggestion... make the show have to get a couple votes before you put it on there.
Not hating on who voted for them, but Suits and Burn notice are not "must see tv"

added a *controversial pick to those
maybe everything with more than 1 vote can go into List A and those with only 1 vote go into List B.

GOT (haters gonna hate but its still one of the best shows of all time)
The Leftovers
The Knick (on of the rarely talked about canceled to early tragedies. if it was on HBO it would have killed it)
Deadwood
Sherlock
Luther
Freaks and Geeks
The Office
Parks and Rec

i'm definitely up for doing this if this thread gains enough traction.
i like the tier-idea. gives everyone a good way to work their way from Best to Worst.

where do we put shows like 'community' which i only watched because of alison brie 
Posted on 7/31/19 at 1:15 pm to CAD703X
Your tier 3 has absolute shite in it next to shows like The Sopranos. And you have Game of Thrones, which had an abysmal final 2 seasons in Tier 1. That should disqualify it.
We're just going to have to agree to disagree.
Tier 1 should have no bad seasons.
Tier 1
- Breaking Bad
- The Wire
- Band of Brothers
Tier 2
- The Americans
- Mad Men
- The Sopranos
- Seinfeld
- Curb Your Enthusiasm
- Game of Thrones

based on people in this thread only. ivy's suggestion was 3 or more votes move it to Tier 1 (including mine in the OP).
#dontshootthemessenger
and most stuff at the moment only has 1 vote since this is just getting rolling so those will start to bubble up naturally.

this gets tricky, then. do you ignore GREAT seasons of a show because of SHITTY seasons? does 1 bad season automatically disqualify a show?
eta also edited thread title since this may have legs

well I think The Wire is absolutely a Tier 1 show
but season 5 is not great
even great shows have bad seasons

From Tier 1, yes.

Not a bad season. It might not be as fantastic and perfect as the others, but its still good. I think Season 4 set such a ridiculous bar that season 5 lets people down. It is nothing like GoT last season or anything like that.

Not great <> Bad
Bad is Dexter's last season. Bad is GoT's last season.
shite like that. Season 5 of The Wire is still pretty decent.

How do you not have Black Sails in your list?
and Cad Black Sails should definitely be higher than tier 3
and you have BOB in Tier 1 and Tier 3..I know its great but it doesnt need to be in two tiers

Most shows hit the wall at a point.
Oz has 3 and a half good seasons. The back half of season 4 through the end sucked. Doesn’t diminish the quality of those first few seasons.

The Last Kingdom.
Theres a good bit of us on here that really enjoy the show. Season 4 should be on its way to Netflix soon, the first 3 were fantastic.
