I haven't watched every show, but I haven't watched a better one.
It's THE best.
Let me put it this way. If Sex Education was a type of ice cream, @kg01 would have no clue on how to choose it.
Good TV Shows?

True. We are all are aware that when It comes to ice cream, kg would know exactly how to choose it: as poorly as possible.

Watch some trailers first to make sure you're in to that type of show, but it's flat out excellent. They have numerous character threads and somehow develop them all reasonably well, which you almost never see.
Monster Rotten Tomatoes scores.
Sex Education
Synopsis:Socially awkward high school student Otis may not have much experience in the lovemaking department, but he gets good guidance on the topic in his personal sex ed course -- living with mom Jean, who is a sex therapist. Being surrounded by manuals, videos and tediously open conversations...
Way above average IMDB score
They announced Season 4 renewal about a week after Season 3 dropped.

Great, this one is up next for me once I finish the latest Sex Education shows.
Haha, you can slug me then buy me a beer. How far have you gotten in it?
I just finished it and man oh man ...
I had high, high expectations and Squid Game exceeded them.

Two episodes. I have to wait until everyone is in bed to start. My son told me before I started watching that my wife would never make it through red light green light and he is probably right

Just started Devs, and am through the first episode. I think it’s going to be a good show

It is amazing to me how different people's tastes are. This thread exemplifies it. Squid Game hold zero interest for me (and it looks like a redux of topics previously treated in years past).
I find myself more attracted to lesser known series. Clickbait was one. Midnight Mass is another. I thought Lupus was greta in Season 1 then lost interest in Season 2 when it became mundane. I think I may be the weird one, judging from the popularity of the titles you guys are mentioning.

My problem is that certain shows set the bar really high for me and of the hundreds of choices to choose from most are just ok. I don’t want to watch a show just to have something to watch. I want it to knock my socks off. I’ve been ruined by quality production and high standards.
But certainly there is a wide range of taste. I don’t care about the genre as long as it’s good. Hence I can enjoy equally Breaking Bad and The Crown. I’m always looking for the next Mad Men or the first season of True Detective. Or the first season of Fargo. I hate that shows like Better Call Saul, Get Shorty and Mind Hunter run into production problems for different reasons.
But I hate even more investing time in a series only to find it’s turned to trash. Or having something highly recommended that ends up being very average. If we started a list of mediocre to bad series on here that list would be ten times as long.

I’m late to the Ted Lasso recommendation because we just started watching it. It is an awesomely well done show.

What do others think of “You?”
The first 3 episodes of season 1 are well produced with appropriately complex characters and an intriguing story line. But I have watched a lot of series that start off promising but then get predictable and mundane.
