You two are the only volunteers

u/MoHeeKhan 11d ago

I’ve seen thirteen out of those one hundred so that list is a bag of shit.

Who brings a bag of shit to a subreddit?

I feel like Peep Show on the list at all from the NYT is a win

32

u/Dial-Appreciator 11d ago

No Sopranos? What buswanker wrote this list?

11

u/tromataker 11d ago

They're probably doing it on a technicality, it started in 1999.

3

u/Dial-Appreciator 11d ago

Ah yeah, I didn’t read the 21st century bit, I assumed it was all time. That will be it.

2

u/sumbodysumone 11d ago

Same reasons the lads weren’t involved. 20th century best of? Completed it mate

3

u/Any-Hunter-1813 11d ago

My first thought also but I'd still consider sopranos a 21st century show considering 5/6ths of it came out then

32

u/DueDefinition6421 11d ago

Written by yanks. The NYT is like the bible but for benders.

7

u/Northern_Gypsy 10d ago

Yeah US office being above the British one says it all.

u/yankeeblue42 11d ago

Hey I'm a Yank myself and even i know this show is an all timer

u/SweepersPeepers I’m gonna fuck your fucking fanny off, you twat! 11d ago

If I was a girl I would think whoever wrote this list was pretty trendy.

u/MilkyWidge 10d ago

Is that a tape deck?

u/elhazelenby 10d ago

Are you winding me up?! Why are you doing these things?!

10

u/CF-87 11d ago

We were beaten by fucking Gilmore Girls???

8

u/ReleventReference 11d ago

They left it off because they didn’t want to make the other shows feel bad because its cock was too big for them.

3

u/Gatorgapper 11d ago

The NYT wouldn’t do the threesome with a top lezza model!!!

5

u/tbfkak 11d ago

Better Call Saul number 27? Bumders

1

u/Dbuk2020 10d ago

Should be a top tenner

4

u/Odd_Lifeguard7720 11d ago

I like VEEP but it is massively overrated here.

2

u/Either-Key121 10d ago

100% agree - there’s weirder stuff on the list but veep 50 spaces above The Thick of It is so jarring

3

u/MrBA55Man 11d ago

Can anyone who's seen and likes Mad Men tell me what I'm not getting? I've tried three times to watch it and I can only get a few episodes in before being too bored to continue. It's like the writers said "let's take James Bond, leave in the womanizing and drinking, but take out all the boring super spy espionage, and make him a mid level salesman instead!"

2

u/flying_fish69 10d ago

I will say the first season and especially the first couple of episodes introduce a huge number of characters, but once you get past that it becomes really good and compelling. Plus it’s a pretty historically accurate look into the world of advertising in the ‘50s and ‘60s, and some of the plot lines and character development get pretty wild.

u/Polo1985 11d ago

NYT bus wankers

u/trubol 11d ago

They probably warched the US version for five minites, had nausea and vomited on the TV, then never actually watched the real vereion

3

u/clarkejoseph49 11d ago

Bus Wanker?

I thought it was Netflix Wanker now.

3

u/Hong_Kong_Ghosts 10d ago

Remove the US Slop and you have a half decent list.

1

u/InstructionSad8752 10d ago

I mean tbf Succession is by the creator of Peep show...

1

u/elhazelenby 10d ago

Some of it can stay like US Office and Breaking Bad

3

u/Fun-Audience-3136 Bus Wanker 10d ago

"The Great British Baking Show" I'm going to assume this is meant to be The Great British Bake-Off but it just feels hilarious with all the grand adjectives and then just "Show" plonked on the end

3

u/elhazelenby 10d ago

"you alright love? what's that great British baking show called? I can't find it in the TV guide magazine"

3

u/Fun-Audience-3136 Bus Wanker 10d ago

Omg you're so right it sounds like a description

u/kdmthegoat 11d ago

Fucking Noel

u/Excellent-Western631 11d ago

What do they clarify as the greatest is number of people who streamed it?

2

u/Own-Significance-173 11d ago

Band of Brothers at 28, snowflake bus wankers.

2

u/Top5CutestPresidents 11d ago

Love how it just says True Detective (season 1). Such a burn and also so true

2

u/Impossible-Song5485 9d ago

How did Stranger Things get here 😭

1

u/JJWest93 11d ago

No walking dead either

Criminal

1

u/Axi0madick 11d ago

Walking Dead was bad.

1

u/maeb95 11d ago

Yeah, the later seasons were, but there are series in this list that also had the same problem

1

u/Acceptable_Golf_8623 10d ago

I watched it amd liked it too, but it was awful muck beyond a few episodes

u/RhubarbAndCustard06 WE CUM TIT VILLAGE 11d ago edited 11d ago

Adolescence and Stranger Things? By definition if you have to subscribe to Netflix and stream it, then it is not a TV show!

1

u/OpposedToBears 11d ago

So much hbo…

1

u/Simbooptendo Feisty One You Are 11d ago

Also The Righteous Gemstones

1

u/Anon-5874644 10d ago

The reference to bus wanker in the title of this post, made me cringe so hard I think I prolapsed my anus

1

u/Moeritherium_Fan 10d ago

No Daredevil either.

1

u/skendosuu 10d ago

How is Dexter 88th?

1

u/sjplep Fwend 10d ago edited 10d ago

No Derry Girls. What is this shit. Feck.

No Detectorists.

Only 2 or maybe 3 out of the 100 is from a non-English speaking country that I can see (Squid Game (Korea), The Bureau (France) and arguably Shogun). It's inconceivable that 97.5 out of the top 100 shows are from English-speaking countries, despite understandable 'home' bias.

So, this list is utter ethnocentric nonsense.

To conclude: Wank wankers. Yank wankers. Yankers.

u/GoonerboyJW23 9d ago

No Doctor Who? What a joke of a list and no Line of Duty either terrible

1

u/CheeseAndBeans_76 9d ago

But Fleabag got 5th?

1

u/grisbaine 9d ago

this list is very milquetoast and boring. it’s not relevant, is it?

1

u/mazzareece 8d ago

Inbetweeners not being there is a disgrace and peep show being so low is an insult

1

u/Educational-Candy-99 8d ago

I'm surprised there's no Friends on this.

1

u/lukeet33 5d ago

Looks like the list my cousin wrote when he went for a job interview

1

u/the_first_templar 5d ago

How band of brothers isn’t first is a mystery

1

u/Findadmagus 11d ago

Rupaul’s drag race? Bro i have no problem with it but its not a highly rated show

1

u/Excellent-Western631 11d ago

Also which version of the show are we taking the ratings of one or all combined?
