I've removed the default "comedy" tag from many shows which I consider to be more drama. Just because a show is funny, doesn't make it a comedy.
| Title | Year | Tim's Personal Notes | Tim's Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Psych | 2006 | Pretty high on my list of all time favorite comedies. Loved the antics of Shawn and Gus. | 88 |
| The Diplomat (UK) | 2023 | Two shows in the same year with the same name. I very much enjoyed this show, a bit simplier and more serious than the American show. More realistic. | 88 |
| The Queen's Gambit | 2020 | 88 | |
| Shōgun | 2024 | 88 | |
| The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel | 2017 | 88 | |
| True Detective | 2014 | 88 | |
| Dark Winds | 2022 | This is a bit dark and intense at times, but overall quite good. As I write this, I'm watching the third season as episodes come out. | 87 |
| The White Lotus | 2021 | I really like this show. | 87 |
| Paradise | 2025 | I'm enjoying this show, but very much afraid that it's going to wander in weird directions. So far, so good, but hints of shows like Lost that start with an interesting premise and then get lost. Will update this after I've seen more. | 86 |
| Crazy Ex-Girlfriend | 2015 | It's hard to compare this show to other shows. Let's start with the fact that it's a musical and very funny. It's hard to find TV shows that are this unique and creative. | 86 |
| Fleabag | 2016 | 86 | |
| Shetland | 2013 | Watching this one with my parents. It can get a bit dark and grim at times, but then what else would one expect from a crime show on a set of islands as barren and depressing as Shetland. It's also beautiful. It's a solid and entertaining show, but doesn't really break any new ground from others show in this genre. | 85 |
| Miss Scarlet and the Duke | 2020 | This has been a fun one to watch with my parents. We got in at the beginning and are on our 5th season right now (Dec 2024). | 85 |
| M*A*S*H | 1972 | One of my first favorite comedies. Big hit back when I was in high school, watched reruns for years. I'm sure it's still good, but not sure if it's still as good as it once was, in earlier times. | 85 |
| The Diplomat (US) | 2023 | 85 | |
| Derry Girls | 2018 | Fun show, set in a time and place we don't see much of. | 85 |
| The Kominsky Method | 2018 | 85 | |
| Atlanta | 2016 | 85 | |
| Dune: Prophecy | 2024 | This is a good show, set in the universe of a book that is one of my favorites. For the most part, I'm on board for this show and loved what it had to offer. However, all through the show I struggled with the idea that it's set 10,000 years before the book/movie. 10,000 years is a very long time and yet things don't seem to have changed much in that time span. Why does this bug me so much? | 85 |
| The Righteous Gemstones | 2019 | Some excellent performances poking fun at some obvious targets. Can be a bit much for me at times. | 84 |
| Doc | 2025 | This has been a good show to watch with my parents. Interesting and fresh premise. Better than most of the network TV shows I've seen lately. | 84 |
| Virgin River | 2019 | Not really my type of show. But, it's pretty good at what it set's out to be. My parents are fans and I've seen much of this series with them. | 84 |
| Justified: City Primeval | 2023 | 84 | |
| Justified | 2010 | 84 | |
| Station Eleven | 2021 | Sometimes I just love a show for it's style and production. This is one of those shows. It's not for everyone, but it's very high up my list. | 83 |
| So Help Me Todd | 2022 | Seems to be a grandchild of Psych. I love the spirit of this show, wish it had lasted longer. | 83 |
| Downton Abbey | 2010 | 83 | |
| Six Feet Under | 2001 | 83 | |
| Ted Lasso | 2020 | 83 | |
| The Last Kingdom | 2015 | 82 |
