True Detective should even be considered a series. Just an 8-part miniseries with 3 more fan fiction spins afterwards.
Vince Vaughn as a cop was the worse TV in HBO. I bet there is a star at the lobby when they killed that character.
According to the New York Times, Game of Thrones is the 6th best TV show of the 21st century

I won’t watch anything with Vince in it, he’s a terrible actor
oppy1984@lemdro.id 2 weeks ago
Same, he on my list of actors that I just constantly ask, how do they keep getting work? Of course Jared Leto is the permanent #1 on that list.

There’s at least “the bureau” and “the office UK”, but yeah this is a bad list.

Squid Game too, being the only non-English show on there, as far as I can tell.
Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Downton Abbey too. I’m surprised a show like “Sherlock” isn’t on it though.
rmuk@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
Happy Valley, Black Mirror, The Crown, The Office, The Thick of It.
chunes@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Battlestar Galactica didn’t even make the top 100?
Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
Oh please …
Armand1@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Hey, we’re only 1/4 through the 21st century so far. It’s too early to call it. The Grapes of Wrath reboot doesn’t come out until 2040!
expletivedeleted@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
I don’t agree with the list, but what is with the check boxes. Where’s the box for “this show sucked.”
too_high_for_this@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No Young Sheldon? Wtf
Groaningwhale@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No Shameless? This list sucks.
mechoman444@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I’m glad you liked Shameless and enjoyed it; it’s absolutely fantastic that you did. There’s no issue with that.
But I thought it was, objectively, a very mediocre show. It relied almost exclusively on unnecessary shock value to drive the narrative and keep people watching.
It was so pointlessly raunchy and disgusting.
If you have to rely on gratuitous sex and violence to keep your audience engaged, you’re not making a good show.

Are there ANY animated shows in this list?
DagwoodIII@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
Yes. Bojack Horseman.
Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 2 weeks ago
Oh, cool.
But I can name a lot of animated shows better than Bojack Horseman.
Diddlydee@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
I mean, everyone loved it until close to the end, so hardly a surprise.
slaacaa@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
It’s like if a well loved fancy restuarant served you 6 amazing courses, then gave you a shit sandwich for dessert. It doesn’t matter how good the other courses were, you’d complain and tell everybody to avoid the place.
It’s exactly the same way with TV shows. Shit ending = shit show
RBWells@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I used to dance and one of my teachers, in a situation where we had to improvise a little at an event that had hired us said “you need a very strong beginning and ending, people can forgive a lot in the middle.”
So the end season of a show being shit is worse than a bad season in the middle. I didn’t watch it through but that makes logical sense to me.
hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
book readers had been calling it shite since season 4 at the latest. folks who made it to season 7 before realizing it had fallen apart are a little bit slow.
driftwood@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
The costumes and set work were visibly dogshit from episode 1. My friends and I were very excited for a high production value fantasy show to finally happen. Then they spent all the money on actors willing to do nude scenes (they must’ve missed the market saturation of fantasy porn and smut literature). I think I made it 4 episodes and was glad people came around eventually because that period between was unpleasant.
beejboytyson@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Key and peele should not be up there. Only suburbanites like that shit. I can name 5 sketch coms that are better.
Blackfeathr@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No Boardwalk Empire? ☹️

Who puts a limited series next to a tv show?
Someone who doesn’t know what the fuck good tv is that’s who.

I actually really liked it an would put it on my top 100 list. granted I don’t think I’ve seen a hundred total sooo
mechoman444@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I’m like why aren’t the sopranos in here and I’m like o ya that show came out in the 90s! Then I’m like fuck i’m old.
Also Gilmore Girls deserves to be way, way higher on that list!
SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Six Feet Under and Deadwood outside the top 10? Shame.
MurkdeTed@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
True Detective (S1) should be in top 5.
DagwoodIII@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
Also, Orphan Black.
heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
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.
NotAnOtter@lemmus.org 2 weeks ago
A ton of very questionable choices on this list. Many of these aren’t even prestige TV?
TheKingBombOmbKiller@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
Why should that be a criteria for ranking among the 100 best TV-shows of the 21st century?
Igris@feddit.org 2 weeks ago
TV-shows have to be on TV right? I mean Andor was just on Disney.
goodboyjojo@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I love some of these shows. Overall I would say the list is OK.
Tidesphere@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
What is this list, lmao
Breaking Bad #1?
30 Rock above The Office?
xistera@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Yeah no one has heard of Succession… with their 75 Emmy nominations and 19 wins. Completely unknown show.
Tidesphere@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I could not name a single Emmy nominated show if you asked me to. And honestly, as I’ve said elsewhere, neither could any of my friends. It’s possible that I’m just in communities that tend not to watch television? But I think that it’s crazy that I could ask like eight or nine people “Hey, have you heard of Breaking Bad?” And all nine would say “Yeah of course” and those same nine people will confirm that they have not ever heard of Succession. Or Fleabag. Or Atlanta.
Gold_E_Lox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
those three are definately not unknowns, and should be higher imo
garbagebagel@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Bro, what. Are you living under a rock?
Tidesphere@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Honestly probably? But I’m not exaggerating when I say neither me nor any of my friends have heard of those shows.
Samsy@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
Idk the shows between breaking Bad and got. Btw. Where is the walking dead?
finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No Will Trent? No Tracker?
hansolo@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
Which Tracker? The South African series was awesome.
finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
US. Justin Hartley.
affenlehrer@feddit.org 2 weeks ago
Interesting, never heard of a lot in the top 10. Maybe not available here or renamed
humanspiral@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
searches for IASIP… 78th???
Suck it family guy/simpsons for surviving shows.
