    Aye, great work Taz. A proper interesting topic too.

    And I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed loads of these, so plenty of stuff to track down again.

    The top 20 are all unreal , canny believe I forgot about Fawlty Towers I grew up watching that on VHS , Still Game felt a bit of a cheat as a vote

    I highly recommend parks and recs and more Eastbound and down with them being around the 30's

    @Taz u do need to watch Phoenix nights tbh

    Definitely. In actual fact there are like 35 in the top 100 that I've never sat through a single episode of, and nearly half of those I'd never even heard of, including Phoenix Nights. Seriously never heard anyone ever mention it, never came across any clips of it or anything before this, lol. So it is on the 'to be checked out' list. Need to find out where to find it, haha.

    And second that about Parks and Rec! Great show. Would likewise give a shout out to Arrested Development, that only got one other top 10 vote aside from mine, another great show.

    Also, as noone else has mentioned, how about @bagforlife correctly picking all of the Top 5 in her top 5! Not in exact order, but pretty * close.

    You can definitely spot the average age here in terms of that top 10

    Another great thread Taz. Gutted that I was away and missed the voting for this one.
    Always liked Still Game but surprised it came out on top against some legendary series. OFAH is untouchable for me.

    Well done all and especially Taz.

    Personally I didn't take to a lot of the highly regarded series, things like Black Adder, Alan Partridge, The Office, not for me.

    My 10 was

    10. Cosby Show
    9. The Golden Girls
    8. More & Mindy
    7. Different Strokes
    6. Police Squad
    5. Married with Children
    4. Happy Days
    3. Cheers
    2. Fresh Prince of Bel Air
    1. The Simpsons
