I like GOT but top 5 is pretty high praise. Off the top of my head;
Hill Street Blues
Seinfeld
M*A*S*H
All in the Family
Sorpranos
West Wing
As always YMMV
LOTR bores me. SWMBO loves it. To me, it’s just “our handful of heroes gets attacked by thousands of bad guys, and win!” over and over and over again.

Wow, the only one on your list that I would include is Sopranos and it is well below both Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones. Don't get me wrong, Seinfeld was fantastic and I rarely see a rerun in the guide where I can keep myself from stopping and watching, but I can't put a comedy in the top. MASH, All in the Family and Hill Street Blues were before my time (although I've watched the majority of All in the Family) so I can't legitimately comment. I do not understand the fascination with West Wing. You are not alone in your praise so I understand I'm an outlier from popular opinion here, but I've watched it and it just isn't very good to me.
MASH and All In The Family are the best Sitcoms, ever. Ever. Cheers and Seinfeld would be in my top 5, probably
MASH was (and still is) terrific.
All In The Family had too much yelling most of the time.
What, no one enjoyed Mad About You or Miami Vice?

You children. No top five list can exist without Gunsmoke, Rawhide, and Route 66.
Not even close. The last episode of Mash was watched by 106 million. GOT never had more than 15 million. There are so many TV shows that had larger audiences and longer runs than GOT. SNL and Frazier have more Emmy wins and Nominations.
You guys are all crazy. The top five shows of all time (for me, anyway) are:
Smallville
Animaniacs
Mythbusters
Mystery Science Theater 3000
The Flash
You are missing two very important points. First, not even close to a fair comparison as it is on a premium network. Second, piracy. Episode 1 of season 7 was downloaded over 187 million times. And the 7th season has over 1 Billion downloads (with a B) when you add up the 7 episodes.
Point of pride moment. I can truthfully say that I have never watched a single episode of any of those.
Mythbusters should have been sued out of existence. BAD science. BAD recommendations. I had my doubts, but after their STUPID findings that sinking ships can’t drag you under- well, I’ll take the Navy’s word on that, and survivors, over two idiots.
Just couldn’t stand them after that.

Yeah but with HBO streaming can you watch live HBO?
Sometimes I like to turn on my Tv without having to decide on what to watch.

Do yourselves a favor and read the Lord of the Rings books. Much much better than those movies.
I asked a Dish retention rep, what's going to happen if HBO/CINEMAX come back to Dish, because I am not sure I want to continue pay for HBO/Cinemax, he said (and of course take it for what its worth) that all subs will be given a choice should they want it.
