Breaking Bad, House, The Simpsons, Cheers, Friends, The Big Bang Theory, Game of Thrones.

Just a random mix of tv for fun. Here is my order of greatness.
1. The Simpsons
2. The Big Bang Theory
3. House
4. Breaking Bad..I usually hate stuff like this. Its a true testament to how good this show was that I watched it.
5.Friends
6. Cheers
7. Game of Thrones..This is the #1 show on IMDB, nothing against it, I just couldn't get into it. Probably lack of patience on my part.

I used to love Night Flight. Does anyone remember that?? So many cool alternative videos and weird films.

Did you know it's now a streaming channel?

Yes! I’ve thrown around the idea of getting it but I’m guessing it would seriously cut into my movie time. ☺️ It sucks how without paying it lets you see topics and episodes but no watching. I’m like aghhhhh! Lol

Thank you for your presence but look at the actual tv shows....d

[–] Quasimodo (16388) 5 years ago

I have looked at the tv shows, more than once, that's why I recommended them.

[–] tcrum (31543) 5 years ago

OH you want to get into it.. Well .. I chose a random relection of tv to see what people thought. Not ..All over the board. Get in the box.

[–] Kowalski (75736) 5 years ago

NOBODY EVER TELLS ME TO GET IN THEIR BOX.

[–] tcrum (31543) 5 years ago

Well I'm guessing no on tells Quasimodo to get with the program but here we are. Something about this thread is very BDSM and I kind of like it.

[–] Quasimodo (16388) 5 years ago

Yes I know it can be frustrating when people don't behave as you think they should. Believe me, I do.

I have deliberately omitted series from subscription services HBO, etc. as due to their high budgets and freedom from broadcast TV rules on content, they have an advantage

[–] tcrum (31543) 5 years ago

Is no one reading the list?

[–] nyctc7 (43648) 5 years ago

I'm not sure what you mean

[–] tcrum (31543) 5 years ago

It wasn't a random list. It was the shows I said ...

Is GOT #1 on IMDb or am I looking at the wrong list? https://www.imdb.com/chart/toptv/?ref_=nv_tvv_250

[–] tcrum (31543) 5 years ago

game of thrones is the #1 on imdb.. I don't like it but it is.

[–] 10200 (656) 5 years ago

Sorry, I misunderstood. I never watched House, can't stand the Simpsons, and didn't particularly like Friends either so I couldn't play your game.
