I thought this show sucked. It’s so lame and fake. I can’t comprehend why you people like this stupid show.

Great show and I can't knock it but number 1? It's top 4-5, not 1

The NYT actually reported something I agreed with for once? Maybe it really is the end of the world...

I still believe this is propaganda. Cause I've tried watching this show several times and couldn't get past the first few episodes

Sign of the times. Celebrate the naughty people. Besides. Better Call Saul was better.

Breaking Bad at number one makes sense to me. Watching Walter White gradually become the very thing he insists he's protecting his family from remains one of television's most fascinating character studies. That final season was something else.

I love “Breaking Bad” bt honestly, “GOT”, “Sons of Anarchy” and “The Sopranos” are definitely in a league of their own.

Wow, what a groundbreaking, controversial, never-before-heard take. The New York Times really risked their whole reputation on this incredibly hidden indie gem. 🤯💀

Meth labs are excluded from a standard commercial property insurance policy. I told AMC this in 2008 and they never called me back. Circling back Monday.

As Peter Griffin would say, I did not care for Breaking Bad, it insists upon itself cause this list is bullcrap… no way BB should be number 1, it has no rewatch value and where’s The Haunting of Hill House, The Undoing, Paradise, The Outsider, Behind Her Eyes, Outlander, under the banner of Heaven, Vikings, The Midnight Mass, Greenleaf, How to Get Away with Murder, Grey’s Anatomy, True Blood, The Fall of the House of Usher, True Detective S3, The Haunting of Bly Manor, The Walking Dead, The OC, American Horror Story, From, Supernatural, Broadchurch, The Vampire Diaries, The Big Bang Theory, Sharp Objects, The Last Kingdom, DTF St. Louis, All Her Fault, We Were Liars, Dark, The Boys, Sons of Arnachy, Stay Close and many more shows that actually had people hooked and talking about every episode.

Choosing between top shows and saying one is better than another is like comparing top artist paintings and choosing one. Useless exercise, it's art, tops are interesting to lower IQ ppl
