The Rolling Stone Magazine’s 100 Greatest TV Shows of All Time

This topic is intriguing. Do you just remove “The Cosby Show” from history? Rolling Stone has just accomplished it with their “updated” list of the top 100 Greatest TV Shows in history.

When it comes to groundbreaking and historically important television shows, “The Cosby Show” is right up there. an all-black television family that ultimately became “America’s Family.” It allowed for an abundance of copies. Rolling Stone is pleasantly announcing “CANCELLED.” In their top 100, “Cosby” is not mentioned.

There isn’t “Roseanne,” another time-honored show. I really wonder why.

In addition, I find it absurd that “Louie” is completely absent, especially in light of how much “Atlanta” and “Fleabag” were affected by it. The Louie CK series was placed #22 on Rolling Stone’s initial list only a few years ago. Naturally, that 2016 list was created prior to the revelation that CK was a serial masturbator.

Atlanta is my favorite show, yet it’s only ranked tenth overall? Laughable. Five, “Fleabag,” #inclusivity. at number 23, “I May Destroy You” Watchmen? It merely entails changing the past.

The Sopranos, The Simpsons, Seinfeld, Breaking Bad, Mad Men, and The Wire are undoubtedly all deserving of a spot in the top 10.

I cringed at the way the author described Joe Rogan in their News Radio (#94) blurb.

Now, it could be difficult to watch scenes when Joe Rogan plays the station’s electrician without thinking about who and what Rogan has become.

Just to refresh your memory, “Fleabag” beat out “Mad Men” and “Seinfeld” to take sixth place in all of television history. Atlanta outperformed The Twilight Zone, Twin Peaks, All in the Family, and David Letterman. Clowns abound in our world.
