The Best TV Shows of the Decade, According to Chris
Picking the best TV shows of the decade is a fight you can’t win cleanly, but Chris is going solo on this one — top five ranked, honorable mentions stacked, and his reasoning narrated in real time.
This is the era when prestige TV ate movies for lunch, so the bench is deep and somebody’s favorite is going to get snubbed. That’s part of the deal when the conversation is this loaded, and Chris isn’t trying to hedge.
What’s on the list
- Fargo with Billy Bob Thornton as Lorne Malvo at five, House of Cards and Frank Underwood at four, and Boardwalk Empire’s Nucky Thompson at three.
- Breaking Bad’s Heisenberg arc lands at number two — Chris admits straight up that he personally hated Jesse Pinkman the whole way through.
- Game of Thrones at number one with Tyrion getting the hat tip, plus Mad Men, Marco Polo, and True Detective on the honorable list.
Six minutes to find out which prestige drama Chris is willing to die on a hill for, and which one you’ll be yelling at your screen about by the second pick.
Watch the full breakdown below and bring your own list to the comments. The whole point is the argument.
