I never liked All in the Family. I just knew too many people who liked Archie because they thought he was right.

I only liked True Detective's first season, the others havent been up to par for me. Bosch I have yet to see.

My close calls (not the greatest, but close):

Better Call Saul
Boardwalk Empire
Black Sails
Peaky Blinders
Band of Brothers
The Pacific
Man in the High Castle
Rome

Forgot Better Call Saul, first couple seasons dragged on but it got better after that.

Band of Brothers is a classic. I never ended up finishing Black Sails but that reminds me of Viking which was also pretty good.

I haven’t finished Queen’s Gambit yet. It actually is tough for my wife to watch because the character reminds her in many ways of our daughter who lives across the country and it makes her miss her even more. (Not that I don’t miss her). May have to finish it myself.
 
Hogan's Heroes
MASH
NYPD Blue
Hawaii 5-0 (both the old and the new)
West Wing
Barney Miller
Emergency!
Married...With Children
Rifleman
Baa Baa Black Sheep
 
Bonanza
Wanted Dead or Alive
The Rat Patrol
Combat!
World War II (in color)
Roots
Dallas (early)
Gunsmoke (in reruns on INSP now)
The Virginian
Hill Street Blues

I imagine a lot of people will have The Sopranos on their list, I tried watching a couple of seasons, but thought I was watching a more violent prime time version of The Young and The Restless.
:cool:

Doesn't the Walking Dead kind of remind you of The Republican Party (ooops, sorry, I couldn't resist) 😎

"You" drove me nuts, fascinating no doubt about it, but too predictable.
