I haven't seen too many dramas. I'm not really interested in stories that go on indefinitely with material made just to pad runtimes, which seems to be a lot of shows

Sopranos
Mad Men
The Wire
>pretty close tier
True Detective S1
>Great tier
Fargo S1
First couple seasons of Boardwalk Empire
Band of Brothers
Show Me a Hero

Not sure exactly what you are looking for. If you want well written dramas try Mad Men, The Knick or Deadwood.

If you are looking for "fun" try Utopia (UK version).

Mad Men, Twin Peaks, Deadwood, Rome, and the Knick are all better than Fargo and True Detective.

Truce Detective season 2 was very disappointing and Fargo is decent I suppose.

OP's list is pretty terrible
>>
>>63234674

Also The Shield and Boardwalk Empire
>>
>>63234674
Rome isn't better than Fargo by a long shot. I'd say Fargo was the same tier as the rest.
>>
>>63234674

It's hard to rate an anthology series as a whole against these other shows, but TD s1 and Fargo s2 are all time great seasons of TV.
>>
>>63234871

Possibly agree with TD S1 but Fargo? I think I enjoyed the first season more.
>>
>>63234961
well hold on now, Fargo S2 hasn't finished yet. But IMO it's just got better and better each episode. It really is superb. If it True Detective S2's at the end of the series though...
>>
>wasting all that time on TV shows
>literally just movies stretched out over 40 hours to make money on commercials
whats wrong with you
>>
>>63234961
>>63235080
all seasons of fargo and true detective are great but breaking bad is the greatest show ever
>>
>>63235119

poor attempt

>>63235080

Well I suppose the next 2 episodes could be incredible but I'm saying as of now I enjoyed S1 more.
>>
Mad Men
Bloodline
Masters of Sex
True Detective

I don't watch a lot of TV but those are ones that have stood out. Breaking Bad had its high points but relied way too much on cliffhangers for me to every really get behind it. Felt more like a cartoon at times than a drama. Bloodline and Mad Men are tied for my favorites. I really don't think the former needs a season 2, but I'm still going to check it out.

Still haven't seen The Sopranos or The Wire, but I plan to based on how much I've seen them discussed here.
>>
>>63235233
If you like Mad Men you'll like The Sopranos
>>
>>63236291
Yeah, I think I saw that line on the DVD cover.
>>
>>63236309
That's actually a little surprising, I'd expect it to be the other way round.
The Sopranos was massive in it's day, but Mad Men never really pulled in that many viewers.

Tfw pleb and got is still bad

A few decades after they end GoT and TWD will be reevaluated by people who never got exposed to the hype and found to be utter shit.
>>
>>63232914
>2- The Simpsons
are you retarded op?
>>
The Sopranos and Mad Men are equal first in a tier of their own for me.

Followed is The Wire, Six Feet Under, Deadwood and Generation Kill.

Then below that is Breaking Bad and Boardwalk Empire. Boardwalk Empire could've been in the tier above if not for the rushed nature of the final season.

>>
>>63236857

My top 5

1. The Sopranos
2. Deadwood
3. The Wire
4. Rome
5. Band of brothers
>>
>>63236951

mini series don't count
>>
>>63235233
The Sopranos features the greatest tv character of all time. I have never seen another character that was as complex as him in the medium of television. He was the worst of us but also the best of us.
>>
>>63237053
>the best of us

???

>>63237053

vic mackey is the greatest tv character of all time
>>
>>63237043
Well then let's swap it out for mad men.
>>
>>63237095

wise decision
>>
>>63234325
10/10 list
but you're missing band of brothers
