Television What's the best TV series in the last 5 years?

[Takes_Two_To_Tango]

I'm going to say.

Either these two.

 

[Madmick]

Currently running, easily:

Past 5 years:

Fargo would have made the cut, but the third season was 2017, and the latest season, strong as it was, doesn't cut it for this by itself the way the pilot seasons of Arcane and Severance do. I haven't seen Succession, and while I've watched a few episodes of The Crown, I haven't really dug in. I'll admit Squid Game was wonderfully executed, but that premise is so tired, I can't include it. The Mandalorian has gotten far too weak in the later seasons; it pales in comparison to Andor. House of Dragons is top notch, but a shadow of the main series. Better Call Saul likewise suffers for me.

I'm a massive fanboy for Taylor Sheridan, but I want anyone who thinks about putting down any Yellowstone series to understand, your pick is going to age as well as all the guys on here who gushed over Sons of Anarchy during its run. Settle down. It's gangsters in cowboy hats. It's trite pulp.

Those are very good picks.

last of us and squid games are my 2 favorite. My wife watches way more tv shows than I do and she really enjoyed ted lasso, chernobyl, witcher and queens gambit.

 

[Ima5starman]

Better Call Saul ran from 2015-2022. If that counts, it’s probably my pick

Yes in terms of mini-series Chernobyl is a masterpiece.

 

[Kevster]

The Boys and Yellowstone easily entertained me the most.

Being entertained >>>>>>>>> Everything else.

 

[Sirwastealot]

Andor and the bear are both great. Mando is up there too but last season was kind of weak.

Shogun has me really excited but i need the season to end strong.

 

[jeff7b9]

I enjoyed:

Queens Gambit
Last Of Us
Ted Lasso

Probably more but those are the first that come to mind.

Apple TV

The Last Thing He Told Me - was pretty good. Angourie Rice and Jennifer Garner gave good performances imo.

 

[Streeter]

Shogun has me really excited but i need the season to end ststrong.

You really think there's more than 1 season of Shogun. I thought this was just a limited series.

 

[Streeter]

Yellowstone
Queens Gambit
The Boys
Succession
Squid Game

Two solid choices, but Cobra Kai may sneak by both

 

[Streeter]

Booooooo you. Can't understand how anyone ever could equate Yellowstone to SOA . Just turrible.

 

[Meatspin]

I'm going to say.

Either these two.

hmm I never watched the last of us, good reminder to check it out

 

[PRESIDENT TRUMP]

The answer is Chernobyl and it isn't particularly close either.

Fourth highest rated show on IMDB and literally did everything right.

Hard to disagree.

 

[Kevster]

Chernobyl was great but possibly the
most depressing show every made, felt like watching Schindlers List afterwards to cheer myself up.

 

[MuayThaiSteve79]

Chernobyl was excellent in every aspect.

Lately I've enjoyed;

- 1883
- House Of Dragons
- The Boys
- 1923

I'm a serial Sopranos and Mr. Inbetween watcher though so not much gets a look in
