I'd say Breaking Bad. Masterpiece.

It's super recent but I feel like The Pitt was pretty steady

  1. Band of Brothers
  2. 1883 (prequel to Yellowstone)
  3. Hell On Wheels

Good call on Band of Brothers one of my favourites of all time

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I just finished Yellowstone and it was one of the better TV series I've ever seen. I've been trying to find something to watch next but I'm so damn picky. I tried giving Longmire a chance but just couldn't get into it. However, 1883 seems promising. I didn't know there was a prequel to Yellowstone - only heard the rumors of a sequel focused on the lives of Beth and Rip.

Guardian of the Spirits [Seirei no Moribito]

A truly excellent anime based on a truly excellent series of books.

Vinland saga

How about a spread across genres in no particular order:

Death Note (controversial, considering the ending)

You're the Worst (underappreciated masterpiece)

Avatar the Last Airbender

The Good Place

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (incomplete, but has maintained a 10)

Breaking Bad, which is worth listing again even though you mentioned it.

I wouldn't say it's quiiite there, but honorable mention to Modern Family, which is the best episodic sitcom I can think of. Has some meh moments but starts and ends as a 10.

You still think sunny is a 10? It might be just nostalgia for me but I think the newer seasons have fallen off so much.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Absolutely. I believe they shortened the seasons a while back to give themselves more time for each episode, and it shows. On subsequent watches, the newer episodes are just as great as the old ones.

Death Note (controversial, considering the ending)

death note was mid all the way through, and absolutely an artifact of its time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

S02 of You’re the Worst drags a bit but overall it is so good.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'd say doctor who but I'm afraid it won't end anytime soon

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Yep it's been going for literally decades

Dipping into the Wayback Machine: Columbo.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

the reboot wasn't so hot though

Columbo in... "Backwards Liability" was a good episode though.

They rarely are.

Bookie. But it's not a fair comparison because MAX cancelled it after just one perfect season

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Yep I nearly said amazon's the patriot but it only lasted 2 seasons

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Bookie had 2 seasons though

Can it go down in between?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Netflix's DARK. Best thing they ever made.
