What are your top 5 favorite seasons of TV?
-You cant list more than one season from a show.

1. Mad Men Season 6 (Fucking love it, I love Bob Benson, Pete, and I think this is the deepest we delve into Dons psyche
2. The Wire Season 4 (Love the kids)
3. Breaking Bad Season 4 (Breaking Bad in its prime IMO)
4. True Detective Season 1 (Could easily put this higher but would feel dirty putting it above the others)
5. Boardwalk Empire Season 2 (I'm a Jimmy guy, so this is MY season)

Quickly, off the top of my head:

1. Deadwood Season 2. Some of the best dialogue ever.
2. Breaking Bad Season 4 (but S3 was pretty damn amazing)
3. The Shield Season 4
4. The Wire Season 3
5. Justified Season 2

But there are so many more...

I label season 3 and 4 of Breaking Bad as "Gus Era". 3 and 4 almost on par with each other. It's hard to choose. For shits and giggles heres my Breaking Bad list:

Season 4
Season 3
Season 5b
Season 1
Season 2
Season 5a


Not that I hated 5a, but it was the slowest, and there episodes like Madrigal, Hazard Pay, 51 just didnt have my attention like Breaking Bad episodes usually do. I also think Villigan took more shortcuts in 5A than in any other season. The 8 episode window definitely is the reason. It's just not quite as fleshed out as say, Season 4, which we all can agree is a television juggernaut. Still amazing, but just my least favorite run of episodes when it comes to the show we all know and love.

You're in for a real treat @ReelHead‌. I envy you

Justified Season 2
Breaking Bad Season Five (gets the nod over four because of the pressure to finish, and I think four is easily better than three)
Boardwalk Season Three, for the finale alone...
MadMen Season Three (That's the one where Lane helps Don and company steal Sterling Cooper from the Brits, right?)
The Wire Season Four.
