'Lots of shows I really enjoyed, but I factor in how likely I am to want to watch the episodes repeatedly. There are fewer of those...

Among dramas, West Wing for sure...

I never missed the 11th Hour when Brian Williams hosted. His snark was the best!

20. Mission: Impossible

Much of the tech was iffy, but it was fun to try to figure out what the team would do before it was all revealed. Also fun these days, recognizing many of the locations where the opening "Good morning, Mr. Phelps" sequences were shot.

Also loved "Brooklyn Bridge", its run was way too brief.

Honorable mentions that haven't been mentioned:

Line of Duty
The Killing (Swedish version)
Fortitude (but I think I'm the only one who liked that show)

Due South. Some moments of true genius in that one. And while we're on Paul Gross, Slings and Arrows.
