    I’m kinda disappointed that Dexter didn’t make the list, as it has themes and ideas that were also explored in Breaking Bad, but I understand that 30 beat it.

  20. Debbie McNamara on July 4, 2022 at 1:43 am

  22. Jesse Bruce Pinkman on July 4, 2022 at 1:45 am

    Breaking Bad is the greatest show of all time. No one can change that

  26. Edgar Maja on July 4, 2022 at 1:51 am

    Weeds was one other funny and entertaining show to watch



  27. Derrick ke on July 4, 2022 at 1:53 am

    Breaking Bad is the best TV show ever made, I’m here for more recommendations though😁

    Dexter



  31. JOZEPH O on July 4, 2022 at 1:57 am

    “MR ROBOT”

    “VIKINGS”



  32. Sagar Lokhandii on July 4, 2022 at 1:58 am

    In my Opinion Breaking Bad and better call saul should be the two greatest show on the earth for this century.



  33. Bruce Klorfine on July 4, 2022 at 1:58 am

    Sorry, Atlanta, but for 2016 nothing else comes close to Fleabag!



  34. Debbie McNamara on July 4, 2022 at 2:01 am

    30 Rock!



  35. Ravens4Life on July 4, 2022 at 2:02 am

    I have only heard of two of these shows



  36. ssoossbb11991 Lol on July 4, 2022 at 2:04 am

    If breaking bad didnt come out the same year as SOA it would have to be 2008s best show



  37. Ray Alvarez on July 4, 2022 at 2:04 am

    Curb fan. F Seinfeld n Friends.



  38. Tyson on July 4, 2022 at 2:05 am

    WOW for a channel that juiced a hell alot of money through the walking dead videos not having the show in this list is more then just a crime



  39. AWeeb • 16 years ago on July 4, 2022 at 2:05 am

    what about chernobyl???



  40. Benjamin Martinez on July 4, 2022 at 2:06 am

    2019 should be Euphoria no question. Clearly Watchmojo never watched it or they wouldn’t have chosen anything else over it.



  41. Ray Alvarez on July 4, 2022 at 2:07 am

    GOT – I was instantly hooked.. like a trout on a fishing line.



  42. Jesse Bruce Pinkman on July 4, 2022 at 2:07 am

    The UK office is better than the Us version



  43. geheimeGurke on July 4, 2022 at 2:07 am

    Where’s Two and a half men, Dexter and Fargo??????



  44. Benjamin Martinez on July 4, 2022 at 2:12 am

    Correction starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson



  45. Nobody on July 4, 2022 at 2:13 am

    Where is Stranger Things?



  46. Ankit Kumar on July 4, 2022 at 2:13 am

    2010 should have been The Walking Dead.



  47. Rebecca - WatchMojo on July 4, 2022 at 2:14 am

    Would it be overkill for us to do a top 10 best shows of each year? Like Top 10 Shows of 2000, 2001, etc…



  48. Daniel McDonald on July 4, 2022 at 2:14 am

    gbbb



  49. Benjamin Martinez on July 4, 2022 at 2:15 am

    As soon as 30 Rock was chosen to represent 2006 over Dexter this list lost major credibility. Even Heroes would be a better choice over 30 Rock and I’d also argue the biggest show in 2000 was Survivor or even The Sopranos and 2003 as great as the Chapelle Show was you can’t tell me The O.C. wasn’t the most talked about show that year. Also way too many sitcoms over great drama shows. Prison Break in its first season was better and bigger than anything The Office did. I don’t know how you guys come up with your lists but damn this definitely needs a redo bad.
