Best Non Cable TV Show of All Time

[Admiral Yi]

I'm with Mongers.  I never got twin peaks.

[mongers]

Twin Peaks.

A bit young at the time, but still aware of the new era of T.V, it ushered, as in more cinematic.
Rewatched it on blu-ray recently.

I think I was too Old for it, so never got into it.

 

Already an old geezer by early '90s? Wow. 

Or was it Angelo Badalmenti's theme? Extremely famous.

I had more trouble with the third season, 25 years after, at least in the beginning. Ending a bit rushed (too soon?) as well but interesting.

Duque you've given me an idea.

Yeah, once we got past Bob, and Laura Palmer, the show got silly and stupid.

[Duque de Bragança]

Well, some complained from the second season back then, with some merit, so let's say the first season.

So now people will blame me.

Yeah, I don't think that I ever even finished the second season.  It's one of those shows that should have stopped when they finished the story.

[Valmy]

Americans shows? Friends

Definitely the best traditonal American sit com. I agree.

As for shows got to go with the Simpsons.

[Josephus]

Speaking of Twin Peaks jumping the shark. What about the reboot a few years back? That was totally unncecessary.

[Sheilbh]

The Simpsons.

I'd go for Frasier as the great sitcom 

[CountDeMoney]

Barney Miller. By the time Season 2 got going, it became the perfect one act play.

But NBC's Hannibal was a work of art.

You can watch some episodes on Youtube.  I have to admit they're pretty good.

Late to the thread, but Hillstreet Blues. 

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, this one wins the flattery contest.

It also helped that the show had one of the best title themes ever.  I can still remember hearing that theme every week and feeling "this next hour is going to be great."

[Eddie Teach]

I never even watched the show and I remember that theme.

[Grey Fox]

That's a great theme.
