TV series I have enjoyed the most:

More than anything else, **these four crime dramas**:

* _The Wire_
* _Breaking Bad_
* _The Sopranos_
* _Fargo_

Other kinds of dramas:

* _The Deuce_ (period)
* _The Leftovers_ (supernatural)

Sitcoms:

* _Friends_
* _How I Met Your Mother_
* _The Big Bang Theory_

Animated sitcoms:

* _The Simpsons_
* _Futurama_
* _Big Mouth_
* _Rick and Morty_

My top favourite are all realistic, violent with or , where important characters either turn evil or confront vicious evil.

What does that say about me?

I also loved:

* _True Detective_ (S1, S2)
* _Big Little Lies_ (S1)
* _Community_ (several)
* _House of Cards_ (several)

And liked:

* _Vikings_ (S1, S2?)

@tripu Does Spain not make Spanish TV shows? Does everyone in the world just watch exclusively American TV?

@valleyforge

I like one or two Spanish sitcoms (eg, the first few seasons of [_7 Vidas_](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7_vidas) were funny and original). But in general American and British are better written and produced.

A Spanish , _Money Heist_, [became very popular worldwide recently](newstatesman.com/culture/tv-ra). But I have not watched it (and the comments I got from relatives were not very positive)…

@tripu What about Mexican TV? There are lots of Spanish speaking people here who watch Mexican dramas

@valleyforge

I don't speak Spanish but I've watched several Spanish series. Production quality was lower than typical US series but overall decent if you like the genres.

@tripu

@tripu I’ve loved 100% of the crime dramas you enjoyed the most (but I watched only 75% —I have not watched the Sopranos)
Based on this, I gotta say: if you haven’t give “Better call Saul” a try!

@koalie Oh. I watched a couple seasons of that one, I think. I had mixed feelings. I remember the script, the production and the acting were all impeccable (as in _Breaking Bad_), and I love Bob Odenkirk. But I think my girlfriend and I got tired of waiting for things to happen; it was too slow. 🤷‍♂️

@tripu Great list! I check all of them, except I haven't watched The Sopranos yet (but soon!)

I would add:

- Better Call Saul
- Curb Your Enthusiasm
- Arrested Development
- The IT Crowd
- Avatar The Last Airbender
- Rick & Morty
- Band of Brothers
- Futurama
- Disenchantment
- Game of Thrones
- It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

@tripu our favourites from past year were Succession, For All Mankind and Severance, I couldn’t recommend them enough!
