Show Notes
What are the greatest TV shows of all time — and do you agree with the rankings? Alison Curtis and her producer Lenny dive into a Weekend Breakfast “Top 50 shows everyone should watch” list based on IMDb ratings, and it instantly turns into the ultimate weekend watchlist chat.
From rewatching The U.S. Office (the “Stayin’ Alive” is still one of the greatest TV comedy moments ever!) to big hitters like Mad Men, True Detective (season one), The Wire, Stranger Things, Game of Thrones and Succession, they debate what deserves a place… and what absolutely doesn’t (looking at you, Lost).
Plus listener texts, Irish show shout-outs, and the big reveal of the number one show.
