Best of Shows?

A question: Who the hell had time to watch all of these shows, much less decide which of them was worthy of a spot on this list? Somehow, I doubt that even professional critics saw every episode of, for example, Dexter. But what the hell, everyone else seems to be weighing in on this thing, so here are my two cents:
An admission: I’ve only seen about a third of the 100 shows. Of those, I didn’t watch all episodes of every season. Again, who has time for that?
- I’d move The Queen’s Gambit into the top ten.
- I’d move The Shield into the top ten.
- Some of these shows were generally great but did not stick the landing (Peaky Blinders, Ozark).
- Curb Your Enthusiasm deserves its high ranking — but only for the first few seasons. House of Cards also overstayed its welcome. And, unless it rebounds, Black Mirror no longer shines.
- Overall, not a bad list.

Speaking of losing luster, Trump is not having a great year. It’s hard to understand how a guy who made big promises six years ago — and kept many of them — can be failing to do the same in his second term. Do the “powers that be” have something on him, something that might be on the Epstein list?
