Default Time Magazine names Top 100 TV Shows of All Time

http://www.time.com/time/specials/20...651341,00.html

Surprised to see some of these on here, some of them are not that should be.

Which shows did you think should be on there weren't or visa verca (are/shouldn't be)?

I think Nip/Tuck (although sort of cheesy and targeted towards product placement) should definitely have been on there considering the hype revolving around it every time it's about to come back on.

As for being on the list undeservedly is Freaks and Geeks... I thought that show was absolutely horrible the single season it was actually on.

Way too many good shows to list but I def. don't agree with a lot of that dudes list ... I mean "Roseanne"??? ... COME'ON! not too many "smart" ones on his list .. esp. for a bold title like "100 best of ALL TIME". he did cover the basics like cheers, seinfeld, star trek, etc.. though

anywho, can't believe he left the Chappelle show off his list along with some others such as In Living Color )which was one of the funniest damn shows) etc...

I'm glad to see Arrested Development is on the list. It never got the praise that it deserved.
