    Yeah, Fringe was better than X-Files.

    Breaking Bad
    Banshee
    Legion
    Succession
    Dark
    The Leftovers
    Fleabag
    Russian Doll
    Chernobyl
    The Terror (season 1 only, 2 was terribad)

    Too early to say:

    Watchmen

    Not much love for Stranger Things considering about half the forum seem to think it's peak telly.

    Stranger Things is like that Mad Max game IMO, love the world they've created, and really captured a time which some of us remember fondly, but with that pared away the story isn't strong enough to stand on its own merits

    The only thing about Fringe is that they actually pressed a big reset button.

    Then pretty much got away with it anyway, cause it's really a show about heart and the three lead characters.

    Fringe was great because of Walter. I'd probably even rate it above X-Files, though it wouldn't be in my 2010 best-of list.

    I avoided anything that spanned the turn of the decade, otherwise I would have stuck Fringe in there. I fucking loved that show.

    +1

    I gave away quite a few blu rays to charity recently, amongst them stuff like true blood, but not fringe. Top show. Might have to rewatch it soon. Also forgot to mention man in the high castle which for me is fringe’s
    spiritual successor.

    Sister is watching x- files are the moment. Been dipping into now and again with her and the first season is really old school 60/70s tv but in a good way. But it’s something I never got round to watching all the way through

    Despite liking Fringe quite a bit, the first half of season 4 ranks amongst the very worst TV I've ever seen. Some how it managed to recover and end up reasonably well.

    I liked Stranger Things season 1, but s2... man, that was some awful telly. Total crap.

    There's a short series of HG Wells stories on Amazon Prime which is pretty good, narrated by that prick from the gambling adverts.

    When I found out Twin Peaks was coming back, I shut down all further news on it, apart from the sad loss of the actors who didn't make it. I waited until it came out on DVD, took a week off, got a couple of oz. of finest, and rewatched the whole original, then the new one, without a scooby what to expect.

    Best. Fucking. Telly. Ever. And all 5 of my top 5.

    I forget breaking bad, I actually started watching that the night my dad died of lung cancer. Probably wouldn’t have bothered otherwise.

    What are people favourites they’ve watched this decade but not of this decade? For me;

    Deep space nine
    Outer limits (original series)
    The thick of it
    Firefly
    Hitchcock presents
