I thought only 4 shows qualified for this round according to the rules?

I went with Breaking Bad (obviously, literally normal) and went with The Office for #2. Rick & Morty just hasn't been around long enough and the characters are much worse, but it's had some good moments. Even then, nothing that has the depth of The Office finale.

Well, congratulations, Atlas!  You have gotten it to the point where there are no shows left that I watch.  I may watch The Office or The West Wing someday on Netflix, so I will vote for them.

Really, that's a very mainstream list.  Surprisingly so.

I guess it's kind of weird the Twilight Zone is our "old" selection.  All in the Family usually fills that role I would think.

Some (by no means all) of the shows I watch actually are watched by far more people than a bunch on this list, even if they get no critical attention or praise.  CBS sitcoms and competition shows, for example.  I've found a few of the cult hits like It's Always Sunny and Arrested Development on Netflix, though!

Avatar The Last Airbender is Life!

Oh, and The Twilight Zone for #2.

HM to Rick and Morty, but it's gratingly anti-religious at parts and the characters are sometimes complete jerks to the point of apathy.

HM to The Office, but there's no way I can let it go further after the travesty that was "Literally episode after Michael Scott left besides the finale where the writers finally got their heads together".

and that's why they ain't on this list.  Being popular doesn't mean a thing is good, see a million different examples from Nickleback to Big Bang Theory to Fox News to generic reality TV. Every Top 40 radio station ever.

aye, streaming services are great for catching up on good things you've missed.  If you like "silly" shows like that, perhaps you might like Community too?  Very silly.  I think it's only on Hulu right now though.

Same here. The only show on that list that I've seen any episode of is The West Wing.

I wish I could wipe my memory of ATLA so I could watch it again for the first time.
