We thought some prolonged arguments about what kind of country we've built might be a good thing, and if such arguments and discussions ever happen, we will feel more vindicated in purpose than if someone makes an argument for why The Wire is the best show in years. ("Buffy," by the way, was the correct answer to that particular bracketfest.)" - David Simon

Very happy to see the second show listed at #9, and #8 both make the top 10.

He's entitled to his opinion too.

But frankly, I think he was being sarcastic. Hugely.

I agree, the Wire is one of the greatest shows ever made. But, so is Buffy, even though it is a completely different show.

I wonder if this is the highest charting comedy show on this poll. As much as I love it, I'm surprised it got more votes than Seinfeld or Married...with Children which didn't even make the top 25.

Loved the timing of that post.

I think more people voted for Arrested Development than actually watched the show when it aired.

The Apocalypse · 12-09-2012, 04:49 PM

Slightly disappointed there's no ER. Then again, it isn't everyone's cup of tea.

#4 will be up a little later today. Tomorrow is finals so I've been super crazy busy haha.
