The Sopranos
Except for the ending. I hated the ending so much that I've learned to write screenplays so I could write a mob show with a better ending.

I didn't hate the ending. He knew the end was coming. They talked about what it would be like to get shot in the head. The last couple seasons were Tony and Carmella coming to terms with Tony dying/getting arrested.
I'm an old fucker, so The Goodies. But Firefly is up there as well.
It’s really hard to say, there’s severance, breaking bad, generation kill, common side effects
and a lot of good tv shows out there
Doctor Who.
Mecha Shiva! Mecha Shiva!
Nice try recovery question scalper. Guessing Blue Heelers won't get you into any of my accounts.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
It's gross, it's wrong, it's mean, it's hilarious.
1-12 were golden seasons, 13 is became what they are joking about.
1000%
The cracks form quickly in 13, but Time's Up for the Gang, The gang solves the bathroom problem, and the gang gets new wheels are great.
14 has Paddy's has a jumper, the gang solves global warming, a woman's right to chop are good episodes. The others range from meh to always skip.
15 was a total wash.
And from there, I don't care.
i read in an article a while back they looked tired and wanted to give up by end of s14. obviously, if you know the actors, kaitlyn, charlie, rob, glenn they dont have much going on for them as far as hollywood goes. they are kinda stuck with the show they cant create. also thier bizarre behaviour, as in plastic surgery and robs name change and his questionable colloborations.
even the isaip sub, the people were kinda shocked at robs trying to stay in hollywood elite circle.
- Star Trek TNG and DS9
- Battlestar Galactica
- Breaking bad
- The expanse
Twin Peaks | The Simpsons (s1 - 10) | Star Trek (all)
Ones that I deeply love to the core but wouldn't consider comfort TV:
- Sense8
- Bojack Horseman
- Fleabag (and I will probably never watch it again tbh)
- Atlanta
- Heated Rivalry
Comfort shows:
- Heated Rivalry (ya twice)
- Law & Order: SVU (yes I know it's copaganda but I will die for Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler and you can pry this show from my cold dead fictional-cop-loving hands)
- Red Dwarf
- Doctor Who (the RTD era)
- Dinosaurs (the criminally underrated puppet one from the 1990s that every adult needs to rewatch immediately)
Honourable mentions for me have mostly been mentioned by other commenters but Schitt's Creek, Arrested Development, The Good Place. And one I haven't seen in this thread yet, Resident Alien!
Gonna go with something differrent here
Adventure Times
Quite long running series that starts super silly but actually does explain all the weirdness that you see from the beginning over its runtime. You think its just a cute strange setting with candy people, some magic and a planet half destroyed that looks a bit like Earth. But there's a whole story behind it and it slowly unfolds more and more over the seasons.
Like others my favorites change a lot, but having just rewatched Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood… Dude what an awesome show. Always cry at least 5 times watching it. For sure deserving of a fixed spot on any top 10s.
And one I haven’t seen anyone mention: Andor. The best Star Wars anything ever.
