After reviewing and ranking 146 television series I've followed for more than 3 episodes over the last 33 years, I've narrowed down my top ten :

My So-Called Life
Psych
30 Rock
The Office
Friends
MacGyver
Life
The Critic
Family Guy
The Dukes of Hazzard

While I recognize that The Wire, FNL, West Wing and others are more masterfully written, sometimes they're like taking Shakespeare to the beach. These are my favorites. The others fall into the top 30.

Now I don't feel so bad for being so eclectic in my tastes. - Beryllium Aug 18, 17:09 1
- I'm beginning to think of My So-Called Life as the show that epitmozes teenage girl life - the liioulu with fresh baked cookies Aug 18, 17:11
Heavily weighted to more recent series. Is this a function of memory, or has the quality of shows improved ? - MojaveMeg Aug 18, 17:08 1
- At the time I would have put Northern Exposure at the top of the list. It's not so much dated as...fixed. -- nm - Max Aug 18, 17:09
The British version of The Office, I hope. And the Armenian version of Dukes of Hazzard. nm - Dignan Aug 18, 17:07 1
- now do your list, big talker. -- nm - Max Aug 18, 17:17
The Dukes of Hazzard? -- nm - the liioulu with fresh baked cookies Aug 18, 17:02 6
- they were *jumping cars* and *blowing stuff up* and *not getting caught* -- nm - Max Aug 18, 17:08
- Easily. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 17:05 4
  - ... But Psych? -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 17:07 3
    - Have never been able to watch Dukes. I like Psych, but consider it lightweight. - the liioulu with fresh baked cookies Aug 18, 17:08
    - easily -- nm - Beaker Aug 18, 17:07
    - it and 30 Rock are constantly shuffling for the funniest tv ever, in part because of my love of all things 80s. -- nm - Max Aug 18, 17:07
