You’ve left out all the HBO heavy weights for one. Here’s a far better “hard to argue” list: https://m.imdb.com/chart/toptv/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 I wasn't speaking for anyone else anyways. I haven't seen GOT, BCS, or a few others yet. Funny enough, if you took out all the ones I hadn't seen, Breaking Bad was still #1 and Office #2 on there. Not sure why Lost was casted so low but that's IMDBasic for ya.

Worst poster here Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 The sad thing is, even if I give you a list that is legitimately critic based, I am still right and you are still wrong.

Jan Backing Track Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Ok let me go redo my personal list. Sorry dude. Just to be clear, because I'm a bit confused still, it needs to be popular AND critically acclaimed for it to count? Also, am I not basic because I use IMDB regularly then? What is the truth?

Hey man there’s nothing wrong with basic, I like most those shows too. The Office and Breaking Bad are pretty slam dunk popular opinions though. As for your second point, I have no clue as you used the term “hard to argue against” which I don’t know means. This shit is subjective. I place more emphasis on critical acclaim than mainstream appeal, otherwise Keeping up with the Kardashians would be a peak show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMDbasic is the most basic, mainstream choice for the general public when it comes to googling basic shit about tv shows. If it was any more basic it would just be google and the basic drones would just report about their basic tastes on that itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 I honestly don't get what you're arguing, my brain is genuinely hurting. The office and Breaking Bad are slam dunk choices why does that matter? Would leaving them off because of that do any good? I didn't claim it was an indie list.

Cheerios4u98 Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Parks & Rec was my all time favorite show, but I overwatched it so much that I’m gonna need a good few years at least to be able to enjoy it again. I can still enjoy the office because I didn’t overplay it nearly as much. Plus Seinfeld is easily better than both. I was blinded at the time.
