If I had to name only one it would be the first season of 'True Detective'.

The best TV I have ever seen.

That was really good and I don't recall a show going from so great to sooooooooo bad in one season as True Detective.

I understand they had different actors and so on but so does Fargo and so far Fargo has been very good through the two seasons and the current one.

True Detective the second season was so bad I could not finish it. I understand the anti hero type but the show was full of characters but there was not one on there that you wanted to root for...even if you have characters in many shows that are bad and have issues but they still write them in a way that makes you root for them...nope not in true detective the second season...all the characters were boring and over the top either bad or depressing.

Breaking Bad is my favorite TV show ever. I'm also liking the spinoff prequel, Better Call Saul. I found a TV show from France named Les Revenants (English title: the Returned) that's excellent. They also did an American version (same English title), which I haven't seen yet. It's about a town where people who have been dead for years suddenly show up alive. Its' amazing.

There's also a satire TV show from French-language Switzerland named 26 Minutes that I love. It's not on any streaming service that I know of, but I'm able to download it every Saturday with a browser utility and then put it into Plex on my PC for streaming. It's hilarious.

I tried watching Game of Thrones, but it's not for me. I just couldn't relate to it. Creeped me out.

As of now: Blacklist, Kevin Can Wait, Survivor and the Amazing Race.

I do like The Wall, a trivia game show of sorts. I could not watch it everyday like Jeopardy or the Wheel but it is good in their mini-seasons.

It may be 'too 1980s' for some and the show's dramatic quality started going downhill starting with season two but the first season of Wiseguy was great television regardless of era. Anyone who hasn't seen the show can catch it on Hulu.

I almost forgot!

Season 1 of True Detective is probably the all-around best TV that I’ve seen.

Incredibly strong performances. Incredibly strong and intriguing storyline with fascinating characters. Direction was outstanding-- Especially
that scene at the end of episode 4 where Cohle sneaks Ginger (biker guy) out of the neighborhood shootout.
It’s just an incredibly good concept of a scene and was well executed. One of my favorite scenes in anything, ever.

It’s creepy. It’s backwoods suave. It’s mysterious. It’s bad-***. Even the opening credits are something to behold.

8 episodes to tell an in-depth complete story. Every moment I watched I was excited and also a little sad that it was almost over.

I also exclusively drank Lone Star beer for about a month after.

They filmed that scene in one long continuous take, amazing really.

Brilliant series.

I remember a funny skit on SNl with Chris Rock and an all black panel talking about current events and how white people won't stop forcing The Wire down everyone's throats and how great it is.ha

all time? My favorites through the years

Rockford Files
M*A*S*H*
Barney Miller
TAXI
Night Court
Seinfeld
Cheers
Married with Children
X Files
Scrubs
Everybody Loves Raymond
Rules of Engagement
early Criminal Minds

Obviously I like sitcoms and I've never been much on having to keep up with a story from week to week.

Rockord Files is probably my favorite all time

I can't even think of a series I watch now, maybe the new Kevin James show.
