The Sopranos - Quite possibly the best show i have ever seen. No, it is the best show i have ever seen. Like your favourite film but its about 60 hours long.
Only Fools and Horses - Lovely Jubbly!
Seinfeld - Yada Yada Yada, not seen better written comedy.
Deadwood - HBO dont do things by halves. Gold, No law and whores. Oh and Lovejoy!
The Office - Did this change the rules?
Curb Your Enthusiasm - The things you think every day laid down in front of your very eyes.
Blackadder - I have a cunning plan. Why doesnt somebody try and make some good mainstream comedy? Like we used to.
The Fast Show - Dont remember a better sketch show.
Phoenix Nights - Laugh out loud funny and........Its British!
Fawlty Towers - True Classic. Nothing else to be said.
These are in no particular order and if you asked me next week i would probably have different shows in there. There are probably shows that have just escaped me for now that should be in there but that is a pretty good list i reckon. Close to putting in Friends, The Shield, The wire, Columbo, Lost, er.....i'll stop now.
Damn that's a hard question :confused:
In no specific order:
The Dukes Of Hazzard
The A-Team
Only Fools And Horses
Phoenix Nights
The Simpsons
Buffy the Vampire slayer
Friends
CSI
Father Ted
Nevermind the Buzzcocks

If Lost can come through with the goods and make sense and all be fully explained it can go in my top 10 but until then it cant. I just hope the writers know what they are doing with this show and there are no loose ends. At the moment im struggling to see where and what is going to happen as there are so many storylines possible theories. If it isnt just full of cop-out reasons for some of the bizzare things that go on in the show then this will be one of the greatest shows of all time.

Yea, LOST could be amazing...I love it, but only when it's finished could I think about putting it in my top 10...It could end up being the most pointless show of all time :D

Lost had so much potential. But once i realise that the series is just trying to give me more questions than answers and not really answering any of the questions its giving me. I lose patience with it.
Thats why ive not even bothered purchasing Season 2 yet. I will wait until its dirt cheap or someone loans it to me. Im not paying around £50 to not learn anything.

If I could have an 11 it would be Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Would put Monty Python too but the series was a bit too inconsistent.

Hi.
In regards to 'Freaks And Geeks', it's an awesome show from the US (that's only available on Region 1 rather anooyingly) made a few years back, about a group of high school kids. It's set in 1980 (I think).
It's amazing how many great characters they established and how much gorund they covered in such a short period of time (there were only 18 episodes).
A younger James Franco's in it, and a younger Seth Rogen. Biff from Back To The Future's in it too!! Oh, and the soundtrack kicks ass.
Trust me, it's well worth hunting down.
