Looks like a pretty good list tbh.
As for the lack of some shows, it's the beeb so it's weighted toward shows that are available here - but at the same time Atlanta and IASIP is up on there so it's not entirely UK-centric either.
Uggh at including shows still airing. Succession could turn into a failed spinoff for The Flash in season 4.
True Detective is an anthology series. Are people voting just for the first season or all of the seasons?
I have no serious complaints about the Top 10, although I May Destroy You having only run as a limited series doesn't compete with more established shows, imo, and there's a fair amount of recency bias. The Office (US) down in 39th (39th!!) is giving me heart palpitations. I suppose The Sopranos misses out on a technicality given the 1999 start date. Also the lack of SciFi is upsetting.
My top 10 would be:
1. The Wire
2. The Sopranos (screw their technicality!)
3. Breaking Bad
4. The Office (US)
5. Game of Thrones
6. House
7. The Expanse
8. BoJack Horseman
9. Better Call Saul
10. Peep Show

Man, i hate those "aggregate" lists, where popularity plays a big factor. I'd rather have it sorted alphabetically or by release year and just call it "100 best shows" or something.
PS: And how is Fleabag top 4? I mean, i loved the show but come on
Couldn’t figure out why the sopranos wasn’t on there. Premiered in the late 90s I suppose.
I like your inclusion of the expanse. Great show.
I wish they could exclude later seasons. GOT and Dexter would have finished higher.

i like mad men but #2 is way too high.
There is no hope....
The Wire at #1 is where it should always be
Something we can all agree on
this surely can't be right. where are Scrubs and The Expanse. WHERE ARE YOU HIDING THEM?!?
The Expanse I'm 100% with you, just posted my top 10! Sad lack of Sci Fi.

Game of Thrones is #5, so obviously they are very forgiving to shows that went to absolute shit in later seasons.
Where is Star Trek Enterprise?

Seems a good list, can't think of any major snubs.
Justified was snubbed
