What do yall think of the list?
I didn't wanna look at it based on where the number "ranking" they gave each episode because I feel like that is just a recipe to get mad. So forgetting the number they were slotted at, all in all, I thought it was pretty good and the write ups were good (I haven't watched a lot of the shows made pre-1980s, so I can't speak on them).
I also liked how they only included 1 episode per show.
My biggest gripes were:
the Better Call Saul episode was great, but I def wouldn't call it the best. The choice for Fargo was DEFINITELY not the best Fargo episode (and I really enjoyed that finale way more than I feel like most people did). And most of all -- their choice for the GoT episode is f\*\*\*ing ridiculous, I have no idea what they were thinking there
If they don’t have a single Mr. Robot episode or Barry this list is pretty much invalid
They have a Season 8 GOT ep on there

They have a pretty standard choice for the Barry episode, no Mr Robot tho
including a SpongeBob episode was p wild, but at the same time I don’t hate it lol

Let's just say I'm hot stuff around this town
1-10 should be breaking bad
happy for the leftovers being that high but the finale was the best ep imo

Tragic and I should of known based on the publication alone
the scrubs episode is 100000% correct, proably too low on the list tho
edit:
perfecct picks for the respective shows:
its always sunny
S1E1 of battlestar galactica
seinfield
sopranos
No True Detective s1 pick is goofy work
The first 80 placement can be whatever. This top 20 ain't it
I would submit Samurai Jack s5 in the list though I need to revisit which episode
Which series you'd want to see gets 2 placement? I'd go with Bojack (Time's Arrow is the one)
College is great but there’s a dozen better Sopranos episodes
College is absolutely great, nice early example of what the show’s all about. But to say that’s the pinnacle of the series’ efforts in television is just insane
Of all the sopranos episodes they chose college? Really?
I think it's because of the influence/impact the episode had on TV. IIRC, it was the first time a TV protagonist just straight up murdered somebody. Definitely far better episodes they could've chosen

They included Larry Sanders too
Overall a solid list. Pretty much all the right shows are on here, some questionable choices of episodes but for most, I can understand why they chose them
