The greatest tv series ever is without doubt ...............

Wow, so many of these I have never seen, and most I never will.

Poor Horatio...

Lots of good replies so far. So many good shows; tough to pick a few.

In random order:
Barney Miller, Night Court, the Honeymooners, The Sopranos, WKRP in Cincinnati, Mary Tyler Moore Show, Andy of Mayberry, Leave it to Beaver.

 

[Disneyhead'71]

Twin Peaks

My wife really loves 'The Black List', I must admit it is rather good

 

[mergatroid]

The Andy Griffith Show hands down. Never even heard of The Wire.
Come on...Andy, Opie, Barney, Aunt Bea, Earnest T. Bass, Gomer, Otis, Floyd and many more memorable characters.

Whilst I've heard it referenced on other shows, I don't think it's ever made it to our glorious shores in the UK. Having seen your clip, I don't think that's such a bad thing however

It is all about opinions though. For instance my wife swears by the British comedy 'George & Mildred', I on the other hand just swear when it comes on

I gotta agree with The Wire, but don't forget Hill Street Blues. Some other greats were mentioned like Cheers and Barney Miller. There are really so many greats, it would really be a list of 15-20 for me and Mr Bean may even squeak in

Batman

My favorite s£x in the city

My fav in a list in order
S£x in the city
Roseanne
Wonder years
That 70s show
The office

 

[unkadug]

Gilligan's Island or Family Guy

The former for it's realistic portrayal of the castaway lifestyle and the latter for it's biting political commentary.

Lost in Space, Brady Bunch,Bewitched

Beverly Hillbillies had the highest ratings of any series ever.

Ellie Mae swimming in it might have helped too.

Only British comedy I'm familiar with other than Month Python is Fawlty Towers. Many years ago a local public channel used to show Fawlty Towers and it cracked me up. Must not have been many episodes though, as I remember they kept showing the same few episodes over and over.

No you're right, there were only 12 episodes ever made of Fawlty Towers. Interestingly John Cleese who played 'Basil' actually stayed in a hotel in real life and saw a manager behaving rudely to guests and based the character on him

Big Bang Theory or Star Trek
