What are your three favorite tv shows (or streaming shows)? Mine includes series that I have watched more than once.

1. Lucifer - started on Fox, ended on Netflix
2. iZombie - never watched the original broadcast on The CW, but have since streamed it
3. Justified - watched it on FX

 

[MooseJaw]

Forged in Fire ... wish I could no longer have the stamina.
Ink Masters... love watching the artists. A talent I don't have
Gutfeld Show, the funniest show on late night

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

The 3 FBI shows on Tuesday nights.
Blue Bloods.
The 911 shows.
And I have to add the 3 HISTORY CHANNELS!

 

[Bigboote]

1) Bones. Loved the characters and the different plot arcs. Yes, I'm a geek.

2) Big Bang Theory. Same reasons as above.

I can't come up with a clear #3. Loved Remington Steele, Columbo, That 70's Show, the Simpsons, Married With Children, Jeopardy

 

[Kaizen]

I don't watch any more new TV shows recently but my old list are:
1. Three's Company
2. Hawaii Five-0 .
3. Gilligan's Island

​

 

[JellyBean]

For me, my three favorite "New School" shows are

1). Parks and Recreation
2). Black-ish
3). Abbott Elementary


Old School
1). Starsky & Hutch
2). Sanford & Son
3). MASH

 

[CL82]

Burn Notice
Curse of Oak Island
Ted Lasso
Only Murders in The Building
The Bear
The Old Man

I don't know if this is so much an all time list as highlights of stuff I've recently streamed and enjoyed. I watched burn notice back when it was originally on and recently binged it. It's still holds up.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Bonanza, Have Gun Will Travel, Laramie. Paladin was just the coolest, sinister, heart of gold guy.

 

[Huskee11]

Friday Night Lights

Breaking Bad

Downton Abbey

 

[Bone Dog]

My wife loves K-drama and since she controls the remote, this is what I watch too. If you want to try it out here’s my faves from this genre:
1. Extraordinary Attorney Woo — features one of the biggest Korean stars, Park Eun-bin
2. Hospital Playlist — a doctor drama, and like many k-dramas both touching and uproariously funny at the same time. This is a feature of Korean taste in drama I think.
3. Love to Hate You — this show is just way too funny for anyone’s own good.

 

[KnightBridgeAZ]

Well, sort of 3 -

PTI sports commentary on ESPN
Jeopardy
Amazing Race

I watch Survivor and a lot of cooking and home improvement shows. Restaurant Impossible stands out.

Old school - Star Trek, MASH, and oh so many more. And to think I watch virtually no shows like that any more.

 

[Husky fanatic]

1. Poker Face
2. Big Sky’s first two seasons
3. can’t argue with Justified

[Aluminny69]

That's a great list! Thanks to streaming availability, there are several shows where I have watched every episode. These include:
Seinfeld
Breaking Bad / Better Call Saul (A lot of overlap in these two shows.)

And these great shows have not been mentioned:
Sopranos
Deadwood
Hell on Wheels ( About the building of the railroads)
The Wonder Years ( original version)

Guilty pleasure: Felicity

 

[Spaceman213J]

For dramas: 1) Life (Wish there were more than 2 seasons)
2) Justified
3) The Mentalist

comedies 1) Everybody Loves Raymond
2) Scrubs
3) Cheers (for me post Diane is better)

I would have put Terriers on the first list, but it was only one season.
