I'd add Breaking Bad. BB, Sopranos, and The Wire are top three in some order.

Does Band of Brothers count since it is a limited series? Justified was not on the same level as the others but I still loved it.

I am so conflicted on Mad Men. Beautiful show, but I would get bored and stop watching for years at a time before picking it back up.

I put Justified up over Sopranos

But, I can see other folks might not agree. I love Elmore Leonard, and throughly enjoyed the whole series.

Sopranos might have had a better episode in it's run, but on the whole the show dragged on for me.

I wasnt counting BoB but how do you think it compared with the Pacific?

Both were excellent but don’t think I’ve ever seen anything as violent as the Pacific.

I love the books

And I love Titus's take on him (as well as liking his narrating the audiobooks). I REALLY wanted to love the show, but man is it slow sometimes.

Solid watch, but really drags for me.

I think it's sort of the opposite of the Reacher series. Again, love the books (though they are definitively dumb and formulaic), and love the actor, and while I enjoyed the show it's just so dumb and overly paced that it takes it down a notch.

Maybe not in perfect order but..

The Wire seems first and then the rest are whatever.

The Wire
Band of Brothers, although just a series.
Boardwalk Empire
True Detective only season 1.
Peaky Blinders
Game of Thrones I ended up loving.
Dark(German) it's great though.

Peaky Blinders prolly 6 for me***

No new shows, but they all have finished so you don't have to wait for another season.

Vikings was good
Snowfall and Animal Kingdom both flew under the radar in my opinion.

I'd put that right behind The Wire.

First two seasons of The Mandalorian.

I LOVED season one of The Studio. Best in a long time.

The Bear. Seven Fishes is perhaps the best single episode of any modern streaming series.

MobLand has been enjoyable.

Call My Agent! (Dix pour cent).

Lupin.
