Today's Question of the Day comes from Michelle who asks

"What are your Top 3 Shows in the last 10 Years"

Well this took quite a bit of thinking about to come up with my Top 3. No.1 if you have been reading this column for a while will know that LOST is my absolute number 1 show, so that's a given :)

As for spots 2 and 3. That was hard.

I finally went with Dexter for number 2 and The Wire for number 3.

Others in the running were Fringe, Alias, Mad Men, The Sopranos,Curb Your Enthusiasm and 24.

So what about you. What are your TOP 3 in order? Sound off in the Comments.

  12. Lost and The Sopranos sprang to mind immediately, but the #3 spot took some reflection. I can tell you that my current favorites are Fringe, Raising Hope, Community and Parks and Recreation, but if we're talking about taking the entire last 10 years into consideration I will have to admit (blushing)--Dancing With The Stars.I'm not going to try to argue for its quality, but did DWTS have me HOOKED? Oh yeah, it did. I would wait all day for that show to come on, and then worry that my favorite might get voted off. A sad, sad addiction, but I'm over it now. I hope.

    ReplyDelete

  20. Mad Men and Lost are my two favorite shows ever. Not far behind those two are shows like The Wire, The Sopranos, Deadwood and Breaking Bad on the drama side, and Curb Your Enthusiasm, Freaks & Geeks, Arrested Development and Community on the comedy/dramedy side.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I'm gonna twist the question, which is too hard to answer to otherwise.

    I'll say the 3 shows that are the most representative of the past 10 years on networks imo.

    And that would be 24, Lost and Arrested Development. All three took their respective gender and network television to whole new areas and broke many rules. I agree CSI is very representative of our times and shows a certain evolution of television too, but that's not nearly as ambitious and as good as the three shows I mentionned.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Gilmore Girls, 30 Rock, Lie To Me.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Lost, 24 and Dexter. I could swap the two last ones, because even as I love 24 very much Dexter has always been consistently good whereas 24 had it's up and downs, and finished in a very low note.

    I'm leaving out Supernatural, House, Grey's Anatomy, The Big Bang Theory and many more out.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I don't really miss it, but I think that they could've given it a chance, it was a good show. The Event doesn't come even close as a replacement.

    What I really miss is Lost :'(

    ReplyDelete
  25. 1 The Vampire Diaries
    2 Fringe
    3 Grey's Anatomy

    ReplyDelete
  26. 1. Buffy
    2. Lost (even though I'm still bitter about how the story didn't come together in the end)
    3. 24
    (would put Supernatural as #4)

    ReplyDelete
  27. Wow, only having 3 choices is difficult!

    3 Dramas:

    1. LOST
    2. Defying Gravity
    3. Buffy The Vampire Slayer/Angel

    But also Torchwood COE and Doctor Who and Heroes S1 and The Wire and Fringe and ST:V and Quantum Leap and ST:DS9 and Dexter and Breaking Bad and so many more!

    3 Sitcoms:

    1. Arrested Development
    2. Cougar Town
    3. MASH

    But also How I Met Your Mother and Better Off Ted and Community and Friends and way too many more.

    Bah, I clearly have very little in the way of discerning taste when it comes to television. I know my favourites, but I don't know that I actively dislike anything. I think V has terrible writing, but I still watch for the plot. I think that The Event is serialization at its worst, but I can't stop watching! I think that The Middle (though charming) is woefully predictable, but it's still a fun watch!

    I guess that I can't deal with shows that have no hook other than "Attractive People, Real Drama, Sexy Times, Coming of Age!" like 90210 or Gossip Girl or Degrassi, but that's because I could be off coming of age elsewhere instead of watching people with flawless skin do it in my stead :P.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Good call! I absolutely loathed 24, but you're absolutely right about those 3 shows being representative of the best of television creativity in the last 10 years.

    ReplyDelete
  29. True blood, Alias, Lost and Flashforward.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Fringe is on top of this list. This is really great and amazing show. Very talented cast and writers make this show number one. The next one is Castle. This show has good humor and very interesting detective stories. Also there is a very good actors which work is great. I love everyone in this show. And number three is Supernatural. I know know that there are a lot of other good shows like House and Lie 2 Me but Fringe, Castle and Supernatural are in top.

  46. Yep, I agree with you, but I think a second season would have been great, because IMO there was still suspense !
    I miss LOST really much too, there are still a lot of questions without any answer...
    Actually, I had a lot of prejudice about that show, I started to watch ( and to love ) LOST only last year, and I watched all the seasons in about 2 months lol I really miss it now too ... :(
    But that's not too bad not to explain all the facts in a show, that keeps mystery ( I'm talking about LOST ;) )

    ReplyDelete

  58. Looking good, I think in the drama section I'd have to go with:
    1. Lost
    2. Breaking Bad
    3. Rome
    The Wire came close, but I kind of didn't want to name another drug related show. Other honorable mentions: The X-Files, Oz, Band of Brothers, Spawn

    Sitcom/comedy section:

    2. It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

  60. Damages #1
    Glee #2
    Lost #3 no show made me sob more times than i can count

    ReplyDelete
  61. My number one is easy: 'Supernatural'. After that...hmmm...think I'd probably go for 'Fringe' after that. After that, I think I would have to go for 'Friends', what a show. Honorable mentions going out to 'White Collar', 'NCIS', 'Criminal Minds' and 'Bones'.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Friday Night Lights, Buffy, Lost

    ReplyDelete
  63. Loved the first two seasons of The 4400, but it lost something to me after that.... Overall still a fun series though!

    ReplyDelete
  64. Lost, Dexter, Six Feet Under

    ReplyDelete
  65. I felt the same way about putting The Wire in my list... I considered putting Game of Thrones there. In the end I decided it was a bit presumptuous....

    ReplyDelete
  66. I forgot to put BSG in my honorable mentions... GREAT series!

    2. ER
    3. Third Watch

    ReplyDelete
  70. But you know, IMO that's good to watch a show when it's not broadcast anymore, like LOST or 24; because you can have all the seasons right now, I mean, you don't have to wait for months before watching next season... I'm currently watching season 2 of 24, I guess you're a fan lol ; well I started to watch 24 last month actually, I had a lot of prejudice , just like for LOST, but I wanted to know what it looked like, and I have no regret: I love those two series !! :D I watched all the seasons of LOST last summer, and I was really sad when it ended ;(
    But luckily I have FRINGE ( I watch since the beginning and I have to wait every week :P ) and 24 of course :D

    3) Glee

    honorable mentions: Chuck, Charmed

    ReplyDelete
  86. It's a conundrum for me, but not for the reasons everyone else has said. My problem is the X-Files. The X-Files aired from 1993-2002, so it fits within the 10 year limit. However, I only liked the X-Files in the 1990's and found the last 2 years particularly terrible, so by only including 2001-2002 it wouldn't be anywhere near my top 15, much less 3. In a lesser way, the same goes for Buffy, which was stellar in the 90's but took a downward plunge with the introduction of Dawn and chipped, emo Spike. The 10 year qualifier really sucks. So...

    If including all years of a show, then Supernatural, Buffy, and The X-Files.

    If including only the last 10 years, then Supernatural, Burn Notice, and Cold Case.

    Honorable mentions - White Collar, Sliders (again only the seasons w/ Arturo), Stargate SG-1, Bones, NCIS, Roswell (first 2 seasons), Everwood (first 2 seasons), La Femme Nikita

    ReplyDelete
  87. 1. Lost
    2. Fringe

  88. Oh this is easy...FINALLY.....a question that my brain can stay out of :D

    no. 1 is easy: SUPERNATURAL!!!
    2 and 3 is hard
    i'm gonna go with 2. NCIS (but only up until season 5, after that its no longer my fave)
    and 3. lost

    honorable mentions: psych, first season of heroes, vampire diaries

    ReplyDelete
  91. Gosh...
    Drama: House M.D. Got me into watching dramas. This may become The Good Wife but it's still new enough that I can't really hand over the crown.
    Comedy: Will & Grace
    Sci-Fi: Stargate SG-1 has had a place in my heart since I was 5 so it'd have to be that. But I can't go without mentioning Battlestar Galactica, which in this scenario is, more or less, my "grown-up" sci-fi, I guess.

    ReplyDelete
  92. 1. Arrested Development
    2. Breaking Bad
    3. Lost

    ReplyDelete
  93. Scrubs, TSSM & Stargate Atlantis

    ReplyDelete
  95. 1-Lost
    2-Fringe
    3-Prison Break

    ReplyDelete
  96. Yep, I agree with you, I don't know how they could imagine something better than FRINGE or than LOST or than 24 ... :)

    ReplyDelete
  97. LOL, yep that's awful to wait between seasons, but I didn't have to wait to see LOST, I was lucky :P and same for 24 !! But for FRINGE, I have to wait every week to see the new episode :S and I read all the spoilers too lol

    ReplyDelete
  98. Me too I was a late bloomer!! And then I got so hooked I watched in a span of two montha. There are alot of unanswered questions. So theres alot of mystery. I was so sad when it ended and also the way it ended. That means there really cant be another season. No series iv watched has ever gripped me the way lost has :-(

    I miss Jack, Sawyer, Kate even the others

    ReplyDelete
  99. I became so obsessed with lost, I googled all the characters, read the synopsis, everything. Lost is an epic series. Everytime I watched a new episode my hair on my arms would stand up. Its awesome!!

    ReplyDelete
  100. Lost and the Sopranos also came up for me, however everybody got me wondering about Fringe and 24 ??? I think I need to watch it..I cant wait

  108. So hard...

    1. NCIS
    2. Glee
    3. Numb3rs

    Criminal Minds, CSI, Bones, Castle, White Collar and CSI NY all have a vote also. As does friends. I loved lost until the final couple of seasons, and the ending was just unsolved to me.

    ReplyDelete
  109. I miss them too, and the way the last season ended disappointed me a lot but I think the scriptwriters wanted to keep some mystery, but I don't think that the fans like that mystery too much... IMO there could be another season, I don't know why they ended the show ... :S

  125. 1. Band of Brothers

    These are the shows that come to mind when I think about how good I felt watching them:

    1. The Practice (You actually needed to think when watching this paralegal drama in contrast to 99% of what's currently on television)
    2. Boston Legal (Its spin-off)
    3. Prison Break (Very original storyline)

    Lost is worth noting. I'd weigh it closely with Prison Break. It was an enjoyable show the first season and a half, then it (lost) its way for the remainder of the series until the final half of the last season/series. Good ending.

  134. Late Lost bloomer here, too. I loved how they ended it but confess it confused me at first. I've rewatched the entire show a couple of times and I check blogs so that I understand more and more. I don't know any other show that has people even more obsessed once it has ended than when it aired.

  135. I was really confused too when I saw the finale of the show, but, like you, I read some explaination on blogs ^^ But I think the scriptwriters want us to imagine, that's why they let mystery, they want the fans to think about LOST again and again lol And I gotta say that I often think about LOST, I imagine many things, I understand others ... ;)

  141. 1) LOST
    2) Fringe
    3) Glee

    I LOVE all of these shows bc they all have some sort of story line, even though each episode is its own and has some sort of message. I started LOST two years ago, and could not stop watching it!! Its soo tempting to have the next one there and ready for you to watch it after the last one always ends so suddenly. Every character, every plot twist, and every scene I had an unending love for. I actually LOVED the ending and how the alternate universe was really purgatory or something like it. The scene where all of the main characters were reunited in the church was awesome and sad at the same time... I started Fringe late last year and am currently in the middle of the second season. I heard that the current season (3) is amazing, so i cant wait to get to get to it!! And then Glee i started watching this season, and watched the whole first season in less than 3 days. Love the characters, story lines, actors, and songs!!! So yea, thats my two cents.

  142. V really is awesome. I don't think too many people are giving it a chance, though.

  144. Perhaps the easiest question I've ever encountered.
    1. The Wire (The greatest series in U.S. television history).
    2. Breaking Bad (Probably the second-greatest series in U.S. television history).
    3. Deadwood (The greatest Western in television history).

    Certainly there have plenty of other extraordinary shows over the last decade -- among them Mad Men, The Office, Dead Like Me (Doesn't ANYONE remember this brilliant show?), Dexter, Lost, The Good Wife, The Walking Dead, and not least the wonderful, heartbreakingly short-lived Rubicon. I regard this ongoing era the true Golden Age of television, much more so than the overhyped 1950s.

    Lauded shows I DON'T venerate include Six Feet Under (A host of repellent lead characters), Curb Your Enthusiasm (Its "humor" is shudderingly brutal), and 30 Rock (This snarky, insufferably smug in-house concoction drowned ages ago in self-congratulatory ooze).

  145. After "Arrested Development," I cannot watch a TV show with a laugh track--simply can't; will walk out of the room if needed.

    "An Idiot Abroad" is hilarious! Wish there were more episodes! Too bad there were only seven Wonders of the World for Karl to visit. Couldn't our ancestors have predicted the need to build more Wonders and obliged us?

  156. Actually 13 episodes per series is average for BBC shows.
    And slowly becoming the norm for U.S. Sci-Fi shows as well [Eureka (Series 1&2),Warehouse 13,Alphas,Being Human,Haven].
    Personally I like the concept of 13 episodes per series short concise episodes-not a lot of filler episodes and a tighter more concise run.
