All-TIME 100 TV Shows

I have seen a lot of really bad lists on the internet.  TV shows seem to be among the most subjective of subjects when it comes to naming the best.  This is one of the more thoughtful and better lists.  I appreciate, for example, including "What's My Line" for the witty panel, although I would have featured Arlene Francis more than Bennett Cerf.  The show also had perhaps the most impressive list of celebrities that appeared on the show, from all professions.  SCTV was also a "good catch".

Of course, I have disagreements.  It seems you did include popular shows that were just awful, such as American Idol, Oprah, and Seinfeld.  And Jeopardy should have been included, and The Price is Right should not have been.   As far as cartoons, I agree with Rocky and Bullwinkle, but I would have found room for Mighty Mouse and Underdog.  The worst omission was Barney Miller;  in the TV world cop shows are perhaps the most numerous, and this was the most realistic view of what day-to-day police life is really like.  The show also had such brilliant subtle, understated humor, with great themes, and improved every year it was on.  As far as westerns, Gunsmoke does not belong, but the vastly underrated Maverick is a glaring omission, and Bonanza, The Lone Ranger, and Have Gun Will Travel certainly belong.  Star Trek: The Next Generation certainly belongs on the list, as does The Adventures of Superman.  How in the world did you leave off The Andy Griffith Show??  Other incredible omissions are Columbo, Perry Mason, Boston Legal, and WGN's Bozo's Circus. 

No Firefly. This list is false. It's a false list.

Phil Silvers Show/Twilight Zone/Steptoe & Son/Doctor Who/Not Only..But Also/Civilisation/The Mary Tyler Moore Show/Elizabeth R/The Ascent of Man/Porridge/Fawlty Towers/Rich Man Poor Man/Pennies From Heaven/Life On Earth/Tinker,Tailor,Soldier,Spy  are just some of the shows not included in this list.

No Wonder Years???

Sanford and Son is the greatest show of all time! If you don't believe me then you're a big dummy! Then it was probably "All In The Family". I think "Good Times" should have been on the list too. This is a great list but it's missing great recent shows like "The Unit" and "Falling Skies". Maybe this was done before those two shows were on.

I still cannot believe that the ending to Six Feet under was revealed in the summary of the show. The last episode was given away as well! This totally ruined it for me. This article should have a spoiler warning!!!!

THE FUGITIVE IS NOT LISTED???  ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!!! 

Northern Exposure!!!
