No Pushing Daisies?
Andor not in the top ten is clown dookie
I wonder when the list was created
The Expanse. Where’s the fucking Expanse?
In what world is The Office US higher than The Office UK?
The first few episodes (first entire season maybe) of Office US is worse, but as an entire series there’s little argument that the U.S. version was more engaging, created more diverse and memorable characters, and had much better storylines. Most of this is purely because it ran longer, but it’s really a very different type of show.
Absolutely agreed it’s McDonald’s against a good restaurant, sure one serves more customers but it’s nowhere near the quality
Wow… and we’re only 1/4 of the way through it. I can’t wait for the AI garbage to rain down on us, and the younger saying… it’s great.
The fact that True Detective is limited only to Season 1 is a testament to plagiarism.
4 was decent. Didn’t give a shit about 2 or 3.
I actually loved 3.
A ton of very questionable choices on this list. Many of these aren’t even prestige TV?
This list is invalid because How It’s Made is suspiciously absent.
Brooks Moore should be a TV star, or a household name.
No Scrubs?? Preposterous
There was a whole song about that
I remember, they " want no scrubs, a scrub can’t get no love from them"
I don’t watch no scrubs. Scrubs is a show you won’t find on my TV.
Hangin out the passenger side of his best friends ride, tryna holla at me
And Brooklyn 99
List compiled by an utter moron. Entirely missing (among others) and vastly superior to most on the list:
- The Expanse
- After Life
- Sex Education
- Firefly
- IT Crowd
Also, despite being controversial, probably worth mentioning:
- South Park
- The Walking Dead
- Z-Nation (imo much better than TWD)
South Park is not eligible as it started airing in 1997.
ridiculous rule for shows that have run longer than everything else on the list, and still popular.
Yeah that thought occurred to me - but since the list is as dumb as it is to begin with, I didn’t bother looking for rules of eligibility.
Yeah the fact that The Office UK is on here and not The IT Crowd just shows they included it due to proximity to The Office US and don’t watch British TV.
scanned the entire list hoping the expanse would pop up.
of course not.
I was hoping see Battlestar GalacticaThat one is on there, I think.
Edit: It’s #37.
Thanks, missed it clearly
did you cry so hard that your tears turned to blood?
i really need to resume watching that show, damn…
Z Nation was so great.
I just started a rewatch tonight after having mentioned it here :) I loved the show and I think it’s time to give it another go. I am surprised how much of the permanent cast is introduced in episode one.
What’s controversial about The Walking Dead? (I only saw the first season).
The torture porn for Season 7 first episode. The show went from splatter / hack & slash to a breach of the psychological contract between film makers and the audience. Instead of cutting away for the ultra violence, they stayed fully on it, turning this franchise from a zombie splatter movie into sadistic torture porn, with the sadism directed at the unsuspecting viewers.
I was able to skip past one of those sections because it was telegraphed in the previous season’s ending, but the next one was intentionally designed to catch the audience unaware and was ultra explicit. I did not want to see this and I never consented to this kind of sadistic fucked up shit to be broadcast onto my screen.
Fuck the makers of that franchise, fuck AMC and fuck everyone involved in that decision for all eternity.
Edit: Be grateful that you didn’t have to watch that.
Well now I kind of want to watch it.
I felt like it was an overcorrection of the season 6 finale where they left it on that shitty cliffhanger of who died. So they were like “well you want answers, we’ll give ya answers!!!”
But yeah it was bad.
Luckily it seems they were punished for it in terms of ratings. I honestly felt abused after being exposed to that scene, without a warning to close my eyes or skip ahead.
You can stop there, The first season is gold. After that TWD doesn’t have a clue what to do with his premises and becomes stagnant
It just quickly got old and repetitive,completely uninspired rehashing of the same problems and storylines. Season 1 is gold, 2 is decent, don’t bother past that
Excuse me there’s a mistake What We Do In The Shadows should be at the top of list thank you.
Not to mention Our Flag Means Death
Alright well let’s squeeze in good old Flight of the Conchords while we’re at it!
Infinity Train is better
Not enough Matt Berry, Kayvan Novak, Natasia Demetriou or Mark Proksch imo.
Yeah but it has Ashley Johnson, Owen Dennis, Kate Mulgrew, and JK Simmons.
I’m a ride or die for infinity train but you just can’t compare these two properties, bruv. Shadows doesn’t scratch the surface of the emotional depth of infinity train. And, while I had several lol moments with Infinity Train, it’s nothing in terms of comedy to Shadows.
Saying one is better than the other is nearing non sequitur territory.
I’m sorry but someone implied that Infinity Train isn’t the best show ever made. Sooooooo, straight to jail for 1000 years XD
If I can do my time on the train, then I accept this judgement.
SERIOUSLY.
What We Do In The Shadows was fucking incredible.
Arazonia!
I know a quote from the regular human bartender Jackie Daytona when I see one!
I’d go myself, but
bizarre half sideways bow
i can’t be fucked
Community being 97th is heresy
Edit: And no Bluey at all? That show does absolute magic in just 7 minutes an episode
I already knew the new York times were shit
This was by vote of 500 actors/industry people, not NYT editorial. A lot of the actors voted for their own shows.
What is this list based on?
Where the fuck is Dark?
Dark not in a top 100 is how you know the curator does not actually watch TV
Dark got kinda bad in the last season imo. Id give it a number between 100-88 at best.
GoT is on the list. I’m not certain the curator’s watching past the first season.
I don’t disagree but it should be on the list regardless
It’s based on which shows the companies that paid them to advertise own the rights to.

Insane list. Look at the IMDB Top 250 filtered by “after 2000” and you’ll notice the obvious omissions:
- Avatar: The Last Airbender at number 6
- Attack on Titan at number 16
- Firefly at number 39
- Taskmaster at number 43
These are just a couple examples in different categories. Anime fans immediately noticed that no anime made the list at all, despite 10 being in the IMDB top 100. Western animation fans might have seen that Bojack Horseman made the list, but Avatar didn’t (or if the editor filtered for “adult animation”, Rick and Morty (#22) didn’t). There’s really no excuse for these, there is no consistent rule that would exclude any of these shows. NYT readers must live in the dark timeline where fun is outlawed and Taskmaster was cancelled after one series.
I don’t get why would they skip Avatar on this list.
Animation isn’t respected in the snobby “film” crowd. These are the same sorts of people that refuse to take Citizen Kane out of the number 1 movie slot. If movies peaked in 1941, what’s the point?
I started to think their list was implicitly live action-only, but then Bojack Horseman? This list is fully ad-hoc one person’s perspective, no objectivity or consensus attempted.
