I’ve been trying to watch Band of Brothers for a while now but I’ve only found paid viewing, so that’s high on my watch list…plus The Wire, which has been highly recommended…The Dark, I didn’t put as a watched just because I’m not sure that I’ve seen the ending of it…I can’t recall tbh…

…I think I might try to watch Fleabag quite soon as it’s one that I keep being drawn to but just haven’t got round to…Handmaid’s Tale also is pretty appealing and I love Elisabeth Moss in everything I’ve seen her in…it’s just quite a big series to catch up on and a bit daunting atm…so I might have to keep it on the side shelf for a little while longer…

I absolutely adore both those series, honestly my favourite Elizabeth Moss performance too. Fleabag is amazing and only 2 seasons long so a nice quick one

…yeah, although it did have 789654 seasons…I did stop watching it for a while but then went back to it and saw it through to the end…they should never have killed Shane, I thought his character dynamic added so much …and he was so much more interesting a character than Rick…

I tried to watch Handmaids tale, but even before the current mood in the USA it made me very uncomfortable because it could be true

Fleabag is an amazing series

Six Feet Under is a brilliant show :fist: I absolutely loved itFirst couple of seasons were good after that it dipped dramatically and by the end no one was talking about it.

Also, the third series of Sherlock was by far the worse so wahts with a rating of 9.1

No 22Too low. Sopranos, Breaking bad, BCS, the Wire are all too low.

To put six feet under higher and as ne of the best shows of all time is laughable. When they were release we were all talking about the Sopranos, no one was talking about Six feet under.

Queens Gambit is good but not the best show of all time and it was only one series which loses points IMO

GiRTh
10-09-2024, 04:12 PM
There are so many layers to BB and BCS that its an insult to have these mediocre show above it.

There are so many to mention that I cant help but5 rip the piss out of this lsit.

Seinfeld, Homicide life on the street, Sex and the city (early series), Oz, The shield, Curb your enthusiasm and even a show like 24 was outstanding in the early series. No, dont think much to that list

But why though? This is based on people's individual ratings, it wasn't a list made by someone.WHen these lists are made there are always too many modern shows/albums/films etc.

Just taking the ratings only shows what is rated right now and not what is actually the best. It makes these lists pointless unless there has actually been some thought put into the show/albums/films that appear . So, my attitude is to rip the piss.

Chernobyl sounds so depressing to watch.

I personally do agree with them on Dark, Severance, The Haunting Of Hill House, Arcane, The Sandman, Gravity Falls, Parks & Recreation, and The Expanse being good Shows.

You can see from this list why humour has become extinct today.

Jokes not allowed today. We all have to be miserable instead of laughing at the World. Jokes are now seen as offensive.

Six Feet Under is a brilliant show :fist: I absolutely loved it

Isn't it about Funerals?

Homeland was an excellent series not on the list

I felt that Homeland was only good in it's first season personally.

Season 3 in particular really put me off the Show.

I largely agree with what you're saying.

But watch Parks & Recreation, it's a funny Show that whilst yes it's Politics certainly lean towards the left, they can also do some good ribbing at Leslie's infatuation with Hilary Clinton & Joe Biden.

Comedy shows usually date very quickly and many just aren't funny a few episodes in

Also, humour doesn't tend to translate well across the world, where other genres do

You have a point on a lot of them tbf.

But I would say that Parks & Recreation is one of the best in the genre for the USA.

It's a bout a family who own a funeral home, not specifically about funerals :laugh:

I loved it to for the first couple of seasons but stopped watching a few seasons in (can't remember which one i stopped at)

WHen these lists are made there are always too many modern shows/albums/films etc.

Just taking the ratings only shows what is rated right now and not what is actually the best. It makes these lists pointless unless there has actually been some thought put into the show/albums/films that appear . So, my attitude is to rip the piss.

fair enough but it's not claiming to be anything other than a list of the top rated shows voted for by viewers which is exactly what it is, that's all I'm saying :shrug:

I never watched it,but I saw how it ended .

It revolved around death / dying in the future,which is fitting for the theme,i guess they wanted a bittersweet finale, Sia's song breathe me...was such a hit aswell
