Since my list of favorite movies was received fairly well, I decided to do a similar list of my favorite TV shows. I made an effort to take the entire run of the show into account and avoid shows that haven't finished their runs yet. I also avoided sports programs, as University of Tennessee sports and old southern wrestling territories would make up the entire Top 10. 10.
