#Netflix #BreakingBad #GameOfThrones - Розваги
What do you think is the best show of the century so far?!
Game of thrones.. breaking bad...dark.. Chernobyl...band of brothers... Brooklyn 99..the office....better call Saul... Sherlock....and so many more
The first 3 seasons of Spongebob lmao, but seriously a more quotable show simply doesn’t exist
Agents of Shield
I’ve been waiting for a video like this for so long thank you 🙏🏼
@A . B Shah the flash isn't really that good
Better Call Saul deserves a spot. It's so much more than just a spin-off
100%
It’s so boring stopped watching after 3 seasons
Boring
Literally. I thought it was gonna be boring but I couldn’t stop watching lmao
For sure. People say it’s boring because it’s not as exciting and not as many explosions but the characters are incredible and the writing/plot is amazing

True detective (season 1) and Fargo (season 1,2 and 3) are one of the highest rated TV shows in Imdb and rotten tomatoes and has nominated for several Emmy awards...
True detective season 1 is the goat season
Fargo isnt that good
@@zhye5588 it's personal preference and I respect your opinion. But, the fact is that, it got nominated for several Emmy awards and have also won some. And it has an imdb rating of 8.9 and rotten tomato score of 90% (only well written shows has that kind of rating) and the acting, plot and characters are acclaimed by audiences as well as critics.
@@Patrickbatemanharvard dont get me wrong, i did like the 2nd season. But the series is far from the greatest. Maybe its just me but I undervalue Imdb ratings and tomato meter i just use it as an indicator. After all anyone without sense of quality can rate a 10/10 on imdb and tomato meter is just percentage of critics that gave it a 6/10 or higher. Emmys hold no value in my eyes just like oscars its just a Hollywood ppl thing.
@@zhye5588 again I respect your opinion. But the film and television academy consists of 6000 experienced film experts from worldwide and based on their voting the film/tv series is elected as best. And they are far more experienced than any of normal audience and from them what I've learned is that, they do recognize good writing and acting, which are the core elements in a film or tv series. I've found their judgement satisfactory in 8/10 scenarios. And also you've mentioned that anyone can vote 10/10 in Imdb, that's true, but average rating is based on thousands of votings, So I don't think that few reviews can alter the whole system.
It should be “ Top 20 best TV shows of the century for US” titled.
Cause us shows are the best
@@aaronkeenan1303 ah! An American, probably haven't seen any foreign shows except in their own country, never traveled, thinks US is the centre of the world.
Tell them, europeans and latin tv shows are as good as american ones. La casa de las flores, skam, vis a vis, chewing gum, years and years, narcos... just to name a few lmao
European series like Dark and Peep Show are fantastic. Dark is named one of the best works Netflix ever did. Many say Peep Show is a disgusting british show, but is a realistic story of two brits in an original view. At least this two should be a honorable mention.
Oh and Casa de Papel, “Money Heist”, is literally fantastic.

The Wire is so overrated
Great list, would personally add Succession and Severance - still ongoing but they are so enthralling!
Good call!
Better call saul > Succession
Much respect you have the Leftovers at #4. I’ve always said it shows the full potential of Lindelof without network restrictions and commercial breaks. Doesn’t have the pop culture fame of Lost, but doesn’t have the plot holes either. Absolute masterpiece.
That's my current bedtime show and this is the FIFTH time I've watched it 😂
@@Grapevine_1987Jesus Christ you watched the leftovers five time!!!😂you’re completely mad.The leftover is very good, but there’s no way I could watch an entire show more than twice. How’d you do it?
@@raymondsims7042 LMFAO I've watched Breaking Bad five times too 💀 Those are the only two.. also, maybe I'm way older than you or it has something to do with my shit memory/brain damage?
@@Grapevine_1987 I think it has more to do with you being obsessed and absolutely nuts😂😂( all jokes lass) that’s crazy that those two shows had that much impact on you for you to watch them both five times each. I love those shows as well but I’ve never loved anything that much😂. I’ll give you a recommendation of a few shows to watch so you don’t keep back to the leftovers and breaking bad. Try mr robot, dark, Dexter, succession, Alice in borderland, you !! Those are all great shows right there I think you’d like them🤝
@@raymondsims7042 I do go back when I can't find something new so thank you haha
Dark was #1 on this list in 1953 & 1986. Will be again in 2052.
😂😂😂😂
😂
Lmao good oen
Dark who? Breaking bad and The Sopranos are kings of television. no show so far that beats those 2.
@@SkaffaS wire maybe
Breaking Bad is the perfect Tv show made ever. It just got better and better with every episode and every season. There will never be any other show topping BB.
I got The Sopranos, The Wire and Madmen over Breaking Bad because in my opinion Breaking Bad nothing compares to the first time you watch it but the other 3 tv shows I mentioned get better everytime you rewatch them. I had watched Breaking Bad like 4 times already but it still doesnt compare to the first time I saw it. The Wire, Madmen and Sopranos maybe they didnt improved each season like Breaking Bad but they improved everytime I rewatched them again. Breaking Bad doesnt get worse but it is like a hard drug lol meth, H and crack where it impacts you the first time but you will always chase that amazing feeling. The 3 shows I mentioned are like art.
@@petersonofleo11 sopranos and wire are overrated and boring. Breaking bad is much better always keeps you on the edge of your seat.
@@petersonofleo11 same goes for madmen I’ll rather pick mr robot instead of madmen
@KELL II lol no sane person would call sopranos better than BB unless you’re one of those edgy teenagers who think it’s cool to say something different
@@skai1862 dude you're the embodyment of bad arguments lol
Person Of Interest is top 5 imo. The only negative is it was obvious they were forced to end it quickly. Plot development within plots. Great character development. They had to kill off characters quick due to top execs pulling the plug but they did great with what they had to work with.
20-Modern Family (I was surprised and delighted by it)
19-Black Sails

1-Rome
Igree with most of your picks, but I never got around to check out Rome. What makes it such a great series in your opinion?
@@Mr.Walrus23 the writing the acting, that not only do you get a view from key historical figures, that much of it actually comes from a roman every man view point also centers the series in a way that was cool. Demonstrates the classes that existed and how all navigated within it. it was visually stunning, especially the opulence of homes of the upper class, so much so that you could see how well off they were, and historically how advanced the romans were. Compare that with the middle-ages life and even the renaissance, the romans had better medicine, better notions of hygiene. Take all the intrigue of the best political series, add some of the best military campaigns in human history, there is seedy street criminals (sopranos /breaking bad) some of the best buddy adventures and add the best content of the history channel and you can see why the series can be great
@@Mr.Walrus23 ps i re-watched mindhunter, and it climbed to Number 2, especially the Cameron Britton portrayal of Ed Kemper, having viewed footage of the real Ed Kemper and I must say I was gobsmacked by his evocation, as well as the brilliant performances across all characters. It is not higher as I feel it is incomplete and while the lone 2 seasons are amazing, it feels that more needs telling
@@SRVaughan1003 Alright, I am sold. Always had an intrique for the Roman empire and the Ancient history in general, so your reply just convinced me even further to reinstate my HBO membership.
Btw, I enjoyed the Mind Hunters as well, and I still have high hopes that a third season will emerge sooner or later. Though I would not quite place the series in my top 10 list, but it is certainly up there. Perhaps a rewatch could pump its spot higher.
@@Mr.Walrus23 For Mindhunter, I have had 4 go-arounds, and the last time it stemmed from documentary footage of Kemper, that I literally asked myself if he played himself, that I re-watched, and I got more immersed in it. Currently giving Marco Polo a watch and it too is great (other than it being a Weinstein production)
Michael Scofield escaped from this list too..
Unbelievable!
Of curse. Such as the Quality who escaped after season 1.
Can't never understand why are so many people getting bitchy about this thing smh.
I was here to see Prison Break in the list. I am very disappointed. Prison Break must be in the top 10.
@@kingofyoutube9318 yeah exactly
@Sceptro Awwn poor baby I hurt your feelings, don't worry you'll understand in a few years
@@tomjaxson9669 jealous because prison break is one of the most loved series, and probably your favourite is not recognized?
Mr. Robot, Peaky Blinders, and Silicon Valley should've at least been honorable mentions.
Those are just well-made TV shows that have nothing special about them.
@@danielright1515 mr robot is the best show ever made in my opinion and is heavily underrated
@@danielright1515 Silicon Valley and Mr. Robot are not just well made shows mate. Silicon Valley is the best show about tech and the most realistic comedy show made. It captures the geek and nerd culture beautifully and shows the harsh reality of emerging startups in Silicon Valley. And for Mr. Robot, I don't know how to explain the greatness of the show. It's a genre in itself.
Peachy blinders is too melodramatic to be one of the best ever
It’s still good though
probably my top 3 lmao
Breaking Bad is the best series ever made ,but I think Better call sauo should be there in top 20 .Also true detective
The sopranos is objectively the best, I havent seen it, but its number 1 on every list. I have seen breaking bad hiwever and I prefer Game of Thrones and Prison Break
@@RPCentral7 Do you know what “objectively” means
"Breaking Bad" is the best written show "The office" is the most enjoyable show
@@RPCentral7 Both GOT and prison break have worst final season in the history of television.
True detective season what?
Happy to see Battlestar Galactica on this list. It was largely ignored due to the earlier show but it is seriously epic.
I want to check it out but it seems insanely long with a bunch of movies in between the show. Is it truly worth watching and does it feel like it goes on forever when watching it?
Stop saying “it didn’t quite stick the landing” it’s crucial that people know how disappointing some of these conclusions really are
* Game of Thrones enters the chat*
Cant agree more with this, can we all just accept that the final season of Game of Thrones blew it?
Nathan Hogan D&D made ruining a masterpiece look easy
@@TheGamingPile was rotten long before that
With GOT i agree, yes. But ending of lost was great and made total sense imo.
Better Call Saul
Peaky Blinders
Chernobyl
Westworld
Black Mirror
Fargo
Dark
Where are these???
😂
@@mondaybores1547
Oh no, it's not.
@Philthy Mcguyver I'm just talking about the core on which the show was made
@@2wimpies556 I think it is
@@mondaybores1547
It fails in it's pursuit of brilliance, it gets lost, it isn't that well written.
Season 1 is among my personal favourites, but afterwards show loses its own prime motive.
It's not a brilliant afterwards.
Better call Saul should be on here
Better Call Saul ist easily one of the best scripts in all of media, not just shows, but film in general. True art. Peaky Blinders should at least be a mention ☺️
Yeah bcs is easily a top 15 show for me and Presley blinders is arguably top 20
Better Call Saul and Dark are some 10/10 shows that need a mention.
Better call Saul I can agree but dark nah...they don't even come close to shows on this list
the last season of dark was not promising..
@@sauravtiwari1462 I think that goes for any mystery show. Once the veil is lifted, it is harder to keep up with the expectations.
Stranger Things fell hard after the first season for this very reason.
@@sauravtiwari1462 dark season 3 is amazing ….
Dark is an one of best underated show of all time
The writing in Better Call Saul is at times even more impressive than that of Breaking Bad. But I assume it didn't make the list because season 6 isn't out yet.
Well stranger things is on here
The Freebrothers Better call Saul is ten thousand times better than Stranger things.
Shows are considered based on the overall impact they’ve had. Though Better Call Saul has better writing, Breaking Bad has much larger impact on pop-culture.
Not Steven Spielberg I would agree with that
Whilst I do prefer Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul S5 is near flawless imo
The fact that they included stranger things and not Dark in the list , says a lot about the intelligence of our society.
I personally think one of the best tv shows ever made was NBC's Hannibal it at least deserved an honorable mention. It was way ahead of its time and still to this day a timeless tv show. The writing and cinematography was phenomenal .
I wholeheartedly agree with this
we should just rewatch it together
wow i loved that show, used to watch it with my ex gf, she was an amazing woman
Highly underrated show
GOT - GAME OF THRONES
GOAT - BREAKING BAD
Watched them both, GOT in Season 1-4 I can see WHY people would say it was better than Breaking Bad, though I still prefer Breaking Bad more regardless.
Breaking Bad was undefeated when it was airing. GOT lost everytime in the emmy awards because of Breaking Bad.
@@deadrock1678 you may think that breaking bad is better, but don't judge based of awards.
@@shomershabbos6291 Why not?
@@deadrock1678 because some shows aren't that well known or popular, i'm not saying that breaking bad isn't better because i think so too, but just don't judge based of awards, because some win more and some win less and it's not necessarly due to quality
Damn right
Missing:
- Narcos
- Band og brothers
- Peaky blinders
- Mr Robot
- Sherlock
- Generation kill
- Chernobyl
- True detective
- The walking dead
- Vikings
@@aty1238 dark is missing too
The 100?
Lucifer as well
@@aty1238 So? True detective lost its edge really after the first season, many fans hated the last 2-3 seasons of game of thrones. That doesnt mean the whole entire series is unworthy of being on the list. 4-5 seasons is still a lot.
@@aty1238 The walking dead still had amazing seasons though
I don't know all the tv shows, watched a few and my favorites are here, except for Vikings. For me Vikings is one of the best, if not top of the list.
It is much more than a historic hack and slash action show. It showcases with great details the life and the philosophies of that time. It is a show of great characters, of ambition, humility, understanding, adventure, exploration and everything that makes us human, full of historical specificities. It is suspenseful, dramatic, philosophical, a game of chess, a romantic saga. It can get tedious at times, given it's length, but oh man, is it glorious.
My favorite of all time:
Dark, Breaking bad, better call Saul, Black sails, The expanse, Lost, Game of thrones.
Watch prison break as well
"Worse thing about prison was the dementors , they were flying all over the place and they come down and suck ed the soul out of you body"

😂😂👍
That shit had me weak 😂
Really amazed that PRISON BREAK, SHERLOCK, VIKINGS and PEAKY BLINDERS didn't even made to honorable mentions. It hurts ! They shouldn't be that much underrated !
I totally agree with you and I miss big bang theory too
@@fbotond7325 yes exactly !

This is greatest USA TV shows list.
Game of Thrones "didn't quite stick the landing". The understatement of the century.
Game of Thrones nosedived into the freaking airport and blew it all up.
Haha! Well said.
is hilarious when some people still rate that show.
Breaking Bad and The Wire are probably the best shows since 2000 atm. Avatar the Last Airbender could be in the conversation as well as Sherlock IMHO
@@bjl687 Sopranos?
@@bjl687 not "some people" ,actually a lot of people and that's fair and good
Where's John mcclain at the airport
Prison break is the best show of all time.
I know it was only a miniseries, but Chernobyl definitely deserves a spot
Those 5 episodes alone are better than a ton of shows in general
Wow as a safety officer, I can confirm series had everything what we don't want to see or hear about our workplace
Why is everybody forgetting about FARGO. So underrated TV show, maybe in the top 10, but definitely in top 20.
ik man. fargo definitely in the top 10
@@michelhanna3661 ya man and also the band of brothers
Fargo one of the best written shows I ever seen. I'm kinda shocked
Only season 1 was fantastic tho
@@ikheetjason season 2 was better
I don’t think people understand the impact The Sopranos had as a series that everyone in production thought was gonna tank and instead went on to be one of the greatest shows. That said, Boardwalk Empire was also a great series
Never seen it
People forget about OZ. It came first and in HBO
Nice List
I have never laughed so hard at anything than the very end of the invisible car gag in Atlanta. That was a brilliant set up and ending and just cemented how good Atlanta was for me.
mr robot, dark , narcos, crown, better call saul, peaky blinders
Good Choices 👍
BSS, definitely... But Mr. Robot went to shit after a great first season.
The X-Files too
@@FHL-Devils Had one of the best final seasons of all time tho

great show. Very different though. Maybe in hindsight you can say something like that but they're completely different from their roots.
Too bad it doesn't though
For me, Six feet under deserve the top compared to the others that I really really love but SFU made me go through all the range of emotions and changed me literally.
SFU is next level great man!!! Easily a top three show ever for me
@@raymondsims7042 Maaa man

I’m not arguing with this list, but I’m here to make some recommendations! The 100 s1-4, The OA, hand maids tale, FEAR TWD, last of us, queen of the south, BANSHEE, warrior,are all some of my re watchable favs not mentioned. A couple of these are lacking in later seasons.. but the first several seasons are great. Also HTGAWM is a secret fav of mine because viola Davis is bomb.
Mr Robot is criminally underrated
Yeah man
Meh
Mr Robot has a decent cult following. It just doesn't get mainstream recognition from the press.
It is easily a top 5 series this century. But this is Mojo who would put Friends as being the best series in the last decade. All they care is popular opinion, not quality.
Mr. Robot was perfect from start to finish, but not even an honourable mention for it
Finally someone mentions that masterpiece of television, it's criminal that they didn't include it, yet they include Game Of Thrones which went down a slope of dogshit from Season 5 onwards

The Wire will go down in history as a masterpiece.. Unmatched writing and depictions of bureaucratic institutions. I’ve watched the entire series several times and pick-up on something new each time. Also launched some great acting careers. Breaking Bad was fine and, unfortunately, gets compared to The Wire too often. They are completely different shows.

These people never include Mr. Robot in their lists. It’s so under appreciated. And I would assume they didn’t include Chernobyl and Band of Brothers bc they’re just miniseries...that would be their only excuse
Mr Robot Is a lost jewel that only few have seen and appreciate it
Hell yeah Mr. Robot. So many clever episodes. Like the One-Take episode and the one with I think two lines of dialogue.
How about The Pacific
Wooaaaah you included dark a man of quality
If The Sopranos, The Wire and Breaking Bad aren’t in the top 3-5 spots, it’s not a real TV list
For me, Breaking Bad is still the first.
Theyre 1, 2, and 3 lol good call

Better call Saul is one of the greatest shows of all time in TV. It is often underrated compared to other shows as it is a sequel (or more accurately a prequel).
I like it better than Breaking Bad.
i was a big breaking bad fan. better call saul is very boring until i rewatched it 3x then i could say it has a potential to be better than breaking bad. this series is so deep
No
@@unknownwarrior5672, yes
It's really slow but it gets there
Person of Interest, CSI (more for how culturally significant it is) and Modern Family are all great too
Band of Brothers is number one - no one in their right mind will deny that.
Game of Thrones didn't "quite stick the landing", huh? That's the understatement of the century.
You k know, i think you should see my just uploaded video on my Best Tv Series.
A lot of shows didn’t either including The Sopranos, which had one of the most underwhelming endings possible.
@Unbreakable Patches You think that's what people think is wrong with GoT?
@Unbreakable Patches Not the point, buddy.
Unbreakable Patches I haven’t even watched Game of Thrones and I know that’s not the reason people where mad
Hannibal, Better Call Saul, Mr. Robot, Prison Break, Narcos tho.
Fr tho
to be fair, Prison Break season 1 might be the best season of all time ever, but the complete show is....good.
Hannibal is, hands down, has the best writing I've ever seen in a TV show. I haven't even finished it and I'm amazed with how good it is.
Peaky blinders as well
@@sanji1259 season 1 and 2 were amazing season 3 was ok season 4 and 5 were pretty good
I agree with the list but how has nobody mentioned Supernatural. I think it deserves at least an honorable mention. I loved that show, start to finish.
Glad that the sopranos got the respect it deserves. Even though i prefer brba but sopranos was in the mind of the creators of brba while creating it. I give it to nostalgia
Yeah sopranos and breaking bad are absolutely masterpieces that deserve to be any top show list. But neither ever had the right to be ranked above the wire🤷♂️the wire is truly the greatest show ever made
Bojack Horseman is underrated, that show was so unique
Luis N nah it ain’t underrated. It’s just right.
Yeah wtf they didn’t even put it on the list 🤦🏻♂️
@@arcadegamerz_1 because at the beginning of the video they said animated shows wont be included.
Anthony Ohhhhhh ok
People say things are underated way too freely
There should be a subtitle of most “Popular Best Shows”. Meh.
It cant be most popular, I literally haven't even heard of half of these shows
Even if it's the most popular, it's missing out on big names like big bang theory, modern family, walking dead etc
Stranger things being over bojack is kinda funny
It’s not kinda funny, it’s really funny! Don’t get me wrong, I love Stranger Things, but Bojack takes the cake.
The 100 was one of my favorite shows a few years back, I’d recommend for anyone lookin for a immersive world in a show 🤷♂️ also has very interesting character development
I am sorry I saw that show total crap I saw it after I watched lost thought it will be similar but crap crap crap
The first two seasons were fire but then it got weird
I have a better alternative: The Expanse.
That's the sci fi you're describing, unlike the 100 that turned out to be edgy teenage drama with bad lines and really mid acting
@@suhasshetty289lmao what was so bad about it?😂🤔
Every other show: breathes
Breaking bad: stay out of my territory
Tony Soprano: *heavy breath* "WHAT YA GONNA DO?! COCKSUCKAH!"
It's a awesome series
Haha love both of those
putting sopranos on top of BB is a non funny joke
@@stewiegilligangriffin4904 the Sopranos is way better
Dexter definitely needs to be in there and Sons of Anarchy is not just an Honourable Mention
👎no
Yes
YES
Yes
Το Dexter είναι για το μπούτζο!
I honestly think Smallville has to be on here, it was consistent the whole time, and paved the way for superhero shows that really showed more of a light on superheroes, rather than just showing us a superhero in his cape that just saved people.
There's been so many great shows over the years you can still have an amazing show that falls short of the Top 20.
Best show of all time for me
Thank you for putting The Leftovers in the Top 5!
I’d put the leftovers more top 15ish put certainly not 5. It was still very good though
@@raymondsims7042 there might be more well written shows but certainly not more beautiful and more touching. I understand if it's not for everyone. But I and some others on the web agree that it's the most raw piece of entertainment depicting the human experience. It literally is art personified. And for that aspect is deserves the highest praise because it deviates from other shows. It doesn't have to have the most spectacular twists and writing. It just is breathtakingly majestic in it's simplicity and rawness
@@rebecca8958 oh lass I’m with you it’s a great show! I’m not disagreeing with anything you said other than it being “top five” I don’t see that but I can still understand why some say so. It’s everything you said it is🤝
Ozark is such a criminally underrated series. Cannot wait for season 4
couldn't get over the first episode when they catch a guy fucking his wife and he stays with her
Watch banshee if you liked ozark
boring as shit but watchable
Yeah great slow burn show
@@kingmayank8356 faxx banshee is great
Lmao
If Dark and Peaky Blinders haven't made the list, I rather not take any suggestions from this video😢
Here comes a dumb casual
Το Dark ήταν για το μπέο!
@@nickpolycandriotes1484 what does it mean??
The rock music throws the whole thing off for me
@King Brilliant You lost me with the hammy acting.
Why is Succession not this list? I need some answers.
I'd take a lot of the stuff out towards the end and add Boardwalk Empire, Sons of Anarchy, Dark, Mr.Robot & without a doubt Better Call Saul.
"animation would not be included"
Cries in avatar
Let‘s call this list the Top 20 of the best AMERICAN tv shows of the century
Yeah bro!! Like they didn't even add Queen Sono or Blood and Water
@@amadeusmalonje8263 Queen Sono? Aowa chief
Because they are...
Nobody has the time to watch everyone else's shows though most of us work 40 hours a week. Like if they could the Romance of the Three Kingdoms show would've made it.
@@theromalepe8600 lol I'm just messing dude
The fact that animation is discounted is a disservice, because it excludes some amazing shows like Bojack Horseman, Moral Orel and other masterpieces. Animation isn’t a genre, it’s a medium to create art.
while i agree, moral orel is the only one that challenges this list and i feel it falls short of a top 20 anyway
Sons of Anarchy, Monk, Supernatural, etc, a lot of great shows that could easily be debated to take some of these too spots.
OZ opened the door for all the HBO shows, not even having a honorable mention is disrespectful.
I thought Oz was in the nineties??
@@availanila so was the sopranos, but its in this list.
@@darksunlight100 oh I guess it's unfair then. I honestly watched OZ starting from around five and the Sopranos from around ten. Clearly one had a impact on me and seems more 90s in my aging brain.
Lost was my obsession. I sooo loved that show. The Wire kinda broke me inside for awhile.
No word can describe Breaking Bad. Believe me when I say no word. It's something else.
Yo Ray Donovan should definitely be on here. Amazing show
Person Of Interest is a criminally underrated show that deserves a spot in this list.
person of interest is one of my favourite shows ever, too bad it never got the recognition it deserved
Indeed. It has several episodes in Top IMDB List so for me it should be at least in the top 10 of this video. But yeah as you said it is criminally underrated.
The mentalist as well
Ob my god, each and every comment I see, someone is recommending something which I have never even heard of😭😭😭
I agree, excellent show. The way the plot begins to pick up and change during the 1st few seasons is perfect.
Where is Mr Robot?
When The Sopranos first came out on HBO there was NOTHING like it ever before! They changed the course of history forever
Until Breaking Bad stomped it into the ground and steered it off course
@@silkroad1201 😂 breaking bad literally doesn’t come anywhere near the genius of the sopranos. I bet ur young
@@silkroad1201 not at all
@H. G V the wire comes close, im note sure, i can’t choose between the wire n sopranos, they’re on the same level for me.
@@lucarossi9453breaking bad is slightly better than the sopranos. But neither should be called “the best show ever” because the wire is obviously the best show ever made. It insulting to put any show above it in my opinion. But breaking bad and sopranos are top ten shows ever as well. All are masterpieces
Sons definitely should be on the list, Boardwalk Empire, Better Call Saul, Dark, TWD, Handmaids Tale, Scandal, Power, the Blacklist, Fringe...
Power ABSOLUTE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You forgot The Walking Dead, Ozark, Fargo and The Handmaid’s Tale.
The Walking Dead went off the rails so goddamn hard it doesn’t deserve a spot on the list. And I absolutely loved the first few seasons.
Bony Hawks Toe Skater they did after season 6 but luckily it got better in season 9 and 10
holy shit good thing you not making the video either
LoL. K8ds.
Ozark forsure
So you’re only including American shows? Very misleading.
@@Eltorogawd what about dark for example?
Fleabag? Seems British
Sherlock
Black Mirror is better than most American shows
Because America makes movies, Asia makes Anime and Europe makes shit lol.
Snowfall is getting no love here it wasn't as influential as breaking bad but it's one of the best shows to watch start to finish and it gets better every season
I know right, you're like the first who mentioned it
Actually really disrespectful that BCS is not here holy
