Best Action / Thriller T.V. Series of All Time
Most enthusiastic, heart catching and amazing series we have watched.The only show that rivals Breaking Bad is The Wire. Breaking Bad is incredibly intense from start to finish, the characters are all incredible (yes, including Skyler, because she serves a good purpose in the series), and it's extremely unpredictable, yet all the twists make perfect sense. The show, overall, is about a man who is dying, whose dreams died long ago, and who has nothing to lose. He cooks meth to provide for his family, but he starts to like
cooking meth. As the series goes on, he gradually descends into darkness and cruelty, yet his character remains easy to understand, and we all feel empathy for him. This, of course, is Walter White, who is in my mind, the greatest character in the history of television. This is all thanks to his character development, as he turns from a nerdy, mild-mannered high school chemistry teacher to a ruthless yet badass drug lord. When Walt does something, his actions have consequences, and it's not like the consequences are a one-time thing: They come back on a recurring basis. Everything Walt does, all the deaths that take place, they all mean something, and the show never forgot any of its history either. I've got to give it to Vince Gilligan, he has made arguably the greatest drama show in the history of television.
The only way to see this series and really enjoy it is, to watch it as a cartoon animation (preferably Tom & Jerry) played by human characters. Do not try to apply any logic or reasoning just sit back and enjoy a well designed show to provide continuous suspence and a good laugh at the same time.
My sympathy goes back to those who had to suffer the ordeal week after week and season after season.
I turned to a complete addict when I first saw this series and all my mind was occupied with the next episode, you get so thrilled you might piss yourself while watching.
I'm a crazy movie and series watcher, but I never enjoyed a series more than this one.
It's a masterpiece that truly deserves a special award!
Dude... This is what a "Legendary" T.V. series should be like! 24's a edge of the seat thriller... The best of all time... Jack bauer is an extraordinary character... I love this series because it keeps you thrilled up to the 24th episode! Love it!
Best show of all time! Brilliant ideas and spectacular acting! Redefines T.V. shows and binge watching! Everyone needs to watch this amazing show and become as obsessed with it as I am! Words can't describe the awesomeness that is 24!
It's the best movie who knows may be for life unless something else comes up. Its very had for me to enjoy movies but this definitely created all the attention I needed to be ambient fun. Jack indeed moo...!
Hunter and the hunted duel in this audacious crime drama based on the Baltimore drug scene. Brainy drug lords, bent cops and crooked politicians may defer them all they like but a group of honest cops are hell-bent on eradicating the drugs from their city. One of the all-time greats. I can't believe 24 & the crappy Prison Break are ahead of this.
Undoubtedly best T.V. show of all time. Vert high praise given the competition like Rectify, Breaking Bad, The Fall, Broadchurch...
Possibly the best series ever.
Cult classic of 90s Television! This series inspired many other shows like Alias, Nikita, Painkiller Jane etc
One of the best T.V. shows from the 90's. Peta Wilson showed an amazing acting. The whole cast was great
I wanted more and more episodes! Season 5 was too short!
Actually Very happy to see it here among the top 10..
It is definitely the best, I found it to be even more better than breaking bad in terms of suspense, thrill & Awesomeness and much much fast paced & no drama..
Yeah I know all the other shows had true acting but I guess it's really not fair to degrade only because it's an anime...
One of the best plots, each episode made you want to see more, it truly speaks to you about concepts of life, death and justice. I highly recommend it.
What is right and what is wrong? It is all the game of perspective.
This is a great T.V. version of Lethal Weapon. They should have done more seasons
For me personally it's my favorite series of all time. I seen someone comment that the ending could've been done better,I strongly disagree it was done just right when considering in the point of view of a character, you've lost mostly everything and so on…you know what happens at the end.
Anti-Hero T.V. shows are always interesting. Jax Teller is one of the best anti-heros.
Sons of anarchy is one of the best T.V. shows! It should be at least in the top 5.
The fact this is 54th shows how poor this list is. Best show still on just now, by far, and people only think they know what's going on, no one is sure. You win or you die!
It's one of a kind. It's unique in it's way. Not as good as 24 or Prison Break but very good too.
This show is pure and udder gold. I could be really ignorant and go on forever and ever so ill just say 3 things. 1) amazing plot twist 2) flawless acting 3) likable and emotionally enduring characters
Great story line and the depth they go into with the characters makes for a great story line. It keeps you on the edge of your seat! I look forward to every episode!
A series with original story line, quite interesting, like the suspense.
One of the Best police T. V shows ever made, this series covers so many topics at the same time like Corruption, Dirty Cops, Drug Lords, Gang Wars, Family Issues, Politics, Mafia Threats, Loyalty & Betrayal and so many messed up things all in one series... this T. V show will defiantly mess with your head and teach you many ironic lessons in life.
Loved the series and loved the way it ended everyone got what they deserved.
Great animated series that exceeded all expectations... This T.V. series made all anime shows look like childish cartoons.
74 episodes of nonstop suspence and a breathtaking mystery
The Pretender and La Femme Nikita are my favorite 90s shows! I miss that time
Here it is 2018/March and I found this show. Absolutely awesome. Keeps me on my toes. Good pace, cerebral, and great acting. The music is done in good taste, not too loud. The minimum amount of sex there is does not detract from the storyline - an excellent balance. This is no 24, but it's not supposed to be - it's on its own, this one.
Marvelous Performances, Extraordinary Script, Excellent Direction, Overall It's Nuclear, It creates a vacuum around you, you cannot escape it, I am sure I will never have the privilege to see a Masterpiece like the 1st Season of True Detective again
I've never been so captivated in a personality like I am with Raymond Reddington.. Everything just plays around perfectly, the plot, subplots, the "MysteryLizzyHusband" Storyline, the character development.. We don't know what Reddington is up to, until we see what he's up to, Well most of the time..
#This is a must see for y'all who loves crime dramas, mystery, and above all, those who wish to have a good time watching the best T.V. on T.V... !
Reddington may be a top 5 T.V. show character of all time. Watching his moral ambiguity play itself out on screen is one hell of a ride. James Spader carries both the the show and the viewer on his back and body slams us in the end zone
LOVED this show. Was so happy when Netflix picked it up! Sad when it ended.
It should be much higher on this list in my honest opinion. But being an anime ranked 17th on such a general list, of mostly American shows, is impressive.
More than the twists and turns of the story it's the character set that defines the show. Each and everyone feels like a family memeber. Awesome.
This show should be at the top! It is SO good.
