Interesting!

Let's see (other) 'genre' shows:

03: The Twilight Zone (okay, will always be a classic...)
26: The X-Files (only good in the first seasons)
27: Lost (sometimes good, in the end a great big let down)
33: Star Trek (my favorite)
35: Twin Peaks (in my view 'proto X-Files')
38: Battlestar Galactica (2005?? Should be 2003 I think, starting from the 
mini)
40: Game of Thrones (never seen it)
49: Buffy the Vampire Slayer (my favorite, along with Star Trek)
79: Star Trek: The Next Generation (what? no Star Trek: Deep Space Nine? Imo 
STDS9 should be on this list!)
90: The Prisoner (heard about it)

Did I forget any 'genre' show? (SF, Horror, Fantasy?)
I missed Doctor Who. Not always super writing, but it has memorable 
classics.

Non-genre shows, also interesting. I think House MD should have been higher.
