I don't care much for TV, but how come no Seinfeld if you were going by "most acclaimed"? Particularly over Friends, which is downright awful anyway.

Wtf, Friends is actually pretty good. Obviously it's no Seinfeld or Arrested Development, but it's nowhere near "awful". At its worst (the last two seasons), it's just decent.

Sorry, I just think it's (at best) mildly entertaining and amusing ... occasionally kind of funny. I'm not sure what there really is to recommend one spend their time with it unless that time is not very valuable. As far as I'm concerned it's the televised equivalent of bad pop music that has its moments from time to time. I missed its last few seasons and pretty much the only reason I saw its middle period was through a girl I dated that liked to watch it. I did, however, watch its first 3 or 4 seasons entirely by no one elses fault! Looking back, probably just a diversion from homework _________________ Best Classical

On your scale I'd say it's at least 6.5, with the first five seasons being close to 7. Though perhaps so many hours of TV that's ultimately 6.5 is insignificant and a waste of time for you anyway.

Re: 6.5 or 7... I am pretty far removed from having watched it... But thinking about it for me, it's probably more likely 5/10-ish, though now I can see why you'd disagree more strongly with my initial comment if it is 6.5-7 for you _________________ Best Classical

I know this is controversial but, I actually think Better Call Saul is better than Breaking Bad _________________ Nothing really matters, anyone can see, nothing really matters, nothing really matters to me.

You got it. The only TV shows I like are ones that were made before I was born. I like old stupid comedies better, but my next choice would be shows like Mission Impossible and old cop shows like Dragnet
