First time posting here, don’t know if it counts as a lazy post but whatever:

  1. The Sopranos: probably the artistic peak of television. After so many years it still feels so unique and extremely relatable due to the huge amount of themes it touches. Fascinating cast, story telling and direction, flawless!
  2. The Shield: everytime someone speaks about Breaking Bad or The Wire, I’m sorry but even if I love those shows, this one blows them out of the water. Probably the most quality consistent and frenetic series of all time, wonderfully concluded as well.
  3. Oz: the one that started all. I’m not even a huge HBO fan, shows like GoT, Rome, Six Feet Under… aren’t my cup of tea, but there’s something so familiar while disturbing about this one, makes me enjoy it like a kid even if it’s a bit dated. Might be the most timeless show in a way, since its topic is still relevant to this very day.
