The community seems big enough across lemmy now, with a lot of active lurkers and posters. Rather than making a Google Survey like r/television does for its yearly vote - that doesn’t capture nuance and possibly provide enough shows to account for taste variety, I’ve decided to simply ask people to list their top 10 favourite shows. Your 10th choice will give the show 1 point, your 9th will give it to 2 points etc with the 1st choice getting 10 points. Eurovision style.
I’ll reply to all comments acknowledging that I’ve recorded them.
Late to the party, but my list is:
- Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
- OZ
- The Wire

The Good Place has hands down the best ending to a show, ever. I can’t think of a show that even comes close either.
Fuck, this is a tough one and will most likely be all over the place:
- Monty Python’s Flying Circus.
- The Wire.
- South Park.
- Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
- Home Movies.
- Mr. Show with Bob and David.
- Gravity Falls.
- The Boondocks.
- Cowboy Bebop.
- Strangers with Candy.
You missed a number
Good because I felt bad leaving Mr. Show out. Edited, thank you for pointing it out!
