....and what Screen said 😊

It's one of those things not everything is for everyone.

For me and a lot of others it is brilliant. The seasons ebb and flow with slow episodes then explosive ones that really kick off and can be some of the best Tv you'll see.

The characters are all inherently flawed and narcissistic always working their own angle so there are very few if any you will like but then you're not supposed to. The writing is absolutely superb and some of the dialogue especially in the big episodes is class. Ditto for the acting!

If it's not for you fair enough but I certainly think it's worth sticking with.

It's overrated (as most shows that become up this popular are) and the writing has fallen in quality as the seasons have progressed. Nothing much really ever happens and if it does there are few consequences to it. No complaints about the acting though.

I thought succession was great but it did take a while to get into it

It's good but wouldnt be close to my top 3 shows

Don't think it would be top 3 for me either but still think it's brilliant. The Wire and Breaking Bad are up there for a lot of people but wouldn't be in my top although I did love them.

West Wing
Sopranos
GoT

Speaking of the west wing the other day with the wife.  We went back and watched The Sopranos and then The Wire recently having never had the pleasure.  This would probably be next of the "older" classic shows that we missed at the time.

I finished "Anne" on ITV last night.  One woman's fight for justice following the Hillsborough disaster.  It's an uncomfortable watch, as you would expect.

No, it's nowhere near that sort of standard.

Never watched GOT or West Wing, watched maybe the first couple of seasons of Sopranos

Could never really get into the West Wing, found it a bit too earnest I think

Hard to pick a definitive top 3, loved Soprano's but would have Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones ahead of it. 

24 would be another that I found unreal.

Dexter would also be on the list but for a few weak seasons.

Black Mirror is obviously a different type of show but it is/was amazing.

Wash your mouth out with soap!

Would agree with the number one choice , also good to see the Americans so high on that list

Lost in the top 100
