Where do you place Game of Thrones on your List?

The Wire
Breaking Bad
The Sopranos
Game of Thrones
Mr Robot

The echelon of TV shows

Never got the craze with this show. Its OK, but that last season was a mess to me.

 

[MidniteJay]

Not even top 10.

This. I gotta end up caring about the series by the finale for it to be considered a GOAT.

acting, cinematography, characters, music all top notch

 

[Figaro]

The Wire, The Sopranos, The Shield, Breaking Bad & Mr Robot are better

 

[CROM]

Game of Thrones could've been in the conversation as best TV show, if D & D weren't left to improvise the story the last 4 seasons. In terms of mere spectacle, it's top 5. Coupled with writing...top 15 maybe. Certainly not top 5 for me.

1. The Wire
2. The Twilight Zone (original Rod Serling series)
3. The Americans
4. Breaking Bad
5. The Sopranos

Can't put Thrones above any of these.

Roasted a dude today saying it was the GOAT,
My first reply was The Wire said hold my beer.
Get at me in 10 years when they college courses and folks still analyzing it.

Next year at Hampden Sydney their history department is doing a class in GOT instead of World Civ 3

Heard of them.
Heard students had some choice words for Obama when he got elected also so I can see that type of school having a class about that show.

 

[feelosofer]

I would still put the show in my personal top 10.

 

[ciubaca]

top five..
after the sopranos, the wire, rome and deadwood

 

[Maxine Shaw]

Do have to include all the seasons? Like, can I just count the first four (or even six!) seasons of GOT?

 

[storyteller]

Borderline top 5, definitely top 10. Breaking Bad and The Wire still hold the top tier down. Everything else is competing for third or worse.

 

[Spliff]

Does Mr. Robot dramatically pick up after Season 1 or something? Seems overhyped compared to the handful of season 1 episodes I watched.

 

[FromStLouis]

Game Of Thrones
Breaking Bad
Penny Dreadful
Westworld
Boardwalk Empire
Mr. Robot
Bored To Death

Haven't seen Sopranos or The Wire. Can't say I ever plan to either.

Edit - Oh and throw Bored to Death on there too, we ain't forget about you Jonathan Ames.

 

[Robbie3000]

followed by The Wire and Sopranos. Then everything else.

 

[Neil Tyson]

1. The Wire
2. Sopranos
3. Breaking Bad
4. Spartacus
5. Mr. Robot
6. Game of Thrones



If ya'll havent seen Spartacus, please go see it that show runs laps around this show.
