Tied for A/B with The Wire for me when it comes to a dramatic tv series. I had it as the undisputed #1 until the last season. It really depends on what day you ask me.

In terms of overall definitely top 10 maybe even 5, but I love shows like Married With Children, The Fresh Prince, etc. so it isn't my #1.

It probably slips out of my top 10 if we include Nick Jr. shows all-time.

It fell off so hard I doubt I'd put it in my top 20.

Spartacus has one of the greatest TV Series finales I've ever seen. If Game of Thrones season 8 would've had more episodes/time, it probably would've been number 2 on my list.

That last battle and the fight between Spartacus and Crassus is GOAT. Actual good tactics, no plot armor, and honorable emotional death when the Romans number finally succumb the rebellion.

The Battle of Winterfell was the complete opposite of that.

Those are the dramas to me that are most rewatchable.

Somewhere in the top 5.

I don't think I've ever witnessed a better 2 episode stretch than Battle Of The b*stards (S6E9) & Winds Of Winter (S6E10). Once in a lifetime type shyt.

I gotta take it out of my Top 5. I'm not acting out of emotion or anything but I do really weigh feeling like my intelligence is insulted against dramas. Especially when the show was so tight, and rewarded paying attention like it did for the first few seasons.

Thrones was amazing and then the last...arguably 2 seasons just didn't give a fuuuuuck. It was still gorgeous and amazingly acted. That never fell off. But that writing was such a 180.

Right now, i've got The Wire, Mad Men, The Shield, Breaking Bad and probably Battlestar Galactica (yes, I know its controversial, brehs. It was the only space show I ever got into, was amazing, and its stumbles weren't as insulting as Thrones down the stretch) above it as whole finished series.

I think Fargo might end up above it for me if it doesn't totally shyt the bed.

It’s not on my list right now. It’s a great show but the last season kinda invalidated a lot of the shyt from the previous seasons.

Endings matter. First few seasons were piff tho

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.
Lets not forget the wire season 5 was ass. We tend to forget these things over time. Everyone hated the Seinfeld finale etc.

It's still in my tip 4 as of now

Those first 2 seasons breh :wow:

The score, the story, the acting :wow:

How Vanessa Ives didn't win a Emmy for her performance smh :pacspit:

But the last few episodes suffered the same fate as GOT & was rushed...

You couldn't blame anybody though because they basically got told halfway through production in season 3 that had to wrap it up because she is going to get canceled...

Show deserved so much better :mjcry:
