Rolling Stone magazine issued a list ranking what they call the 100 greatest TV shows of all time. The list was compiled after the pop culture magazine sent out ballots to entertainment inudustry professionals.

Anything else is not really worth your time.
My personal list of Fictional Procedural Crime TV Shows. Most of these I have personally watched at least a few seasons of and/or I am working my way through. Some I have not started yet but I have heard good things about. There are also a few exceptions to the Procedural part (Broadchurch being a great example!) but the vast majority do fall under the definition.
All Pedro Pascal appearences in chronological order.
Westphall, who is autistic, played an increased role in St. Elsewhere's final episode, "The Last One", one interpretation of which is that the entire St. Elsewhere storyline exists only within Westphall's imagination. As characters from St. Elsewhere have appeared on other television shows and those shows' characters appeared on more shows, and so on, a "Tommy Westphall Universe" hypothesis (postulated by Dwayne McDuffie) argues that a significant amount of fictional episodic television exists within a fictional universe imagined by Tommy Westphall.
The term Wolf Universe is commonly used to describe American television programs created and/or produced by Dick Wolf.
As of 3/3/2024
The following is a list of series from 1950-2023. Series within were in the top ten of both Trakt’s Popular & Trakt’s All Time Watched in each of their respective years. The exception to that sole guideline above was the years 1950-1955, where the top ten were cross reference as a group as opposed to individual years.
List directory:
» 1-7: Law & Order franchise (7)
» 8-11: Chicago franchise (4)

These are some of my favorite classic detective/law enforcement TV Shows I remember growing up. These shows are not a random copy and paste list. These are real shows I personally enjoyed. I don't believe in lists that contain 8,000 movies claiming that everyone must see before they die. Dumping tens of thousands of movies in a playlist to share is irresponsible to others. No one can be helped by that! It can only mean that you're not genuine with your "selection." In fact, you'd probably die before you actually even finish looking through that long list!!

Anything with a run-time of 3 days or longer, or anything that might otherwise be a chore to watch. LOL @ me failing horribly at sorting watch list stuff to feel slightly less intimidated. I'm always open to recommendations! See https://trakt.tv/users/bangiras/lists/read-me for details and also ways to contact me if you don't have a Trakt.TV account.
