If you had to recommend someone watch 5 TV series, what would you pick? (here are mine)
wow, it's hard to choose only five. i am guessing from your examples that past shows are okay. so how about (in no particular order, and off the top of my head):
murphy brown
the west wing
hill street blues
ugly betty
northern exposure
the good wife
doctor who
the prisoner
the avengers (diana rigg episodes)
absolutely fabulous
st. elsewhere
l.a. law
boston legal
law and order (and svu, and criminal intent)
i'll fly away
civil wars (not to be confused with the ken burns documentary)
upstairs downstairs (the original)
everything ken burns ever made
oh did i mention i can't count?

How do you feel with TWD losing its main characters?
@Nichole765 Hate it!!!
@marksam8484 seems like Daryl may be the only one left. ?
I need to add Frasier, The Golden Girls, Bob's Burgers, The Guild, Stranger Things, Life, The Finder, Lie To Me, A Series Of Unfortunate Events, Young Sheldon, etc
I could go on and on =)
Bob's Burgers is my fav late-night, can't-sleep show to watch.
1 Call the Midwife
2. Walking Dead
3 Vikings
4.Farscape
5. Bill Maher
Lots more. I love TV, but I'll stop at 5.
The Office, My Name is Earl, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Cops, America's Most Wanted.
Lots of good choices here and I won't argue with them but Here is one not there. "Wolf Hall", its the Ann Boleyn story from the perspective of Thomas Cromwell. The guy rose from being the son of a blacksmith, to becoming the 2nd most powerful man in England.
This is at a time of great changes. The introduction of Protestantism into the English speaking peoples and subsequently the US. At a time slot relative to where Islam is now (about 1400 years in). With all the factional infighting and bloodshed over dogma .
Beautifully written and filmed, a must see.
Loved lie to me, never met anyone else who watched it lol. Their loss.
@Wurlitzer Lie To Me is amazeballs
Eureka and Lie to Me are both awesome. Also, Life and The Finder
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Breaking Bad
The Good Place
Futurama
Damages
In no particular order
@Jorgumander gravity falls > Rick and Morty.
Yeah I just said that.
These are not order of preference, just order of when they came to mind
Love the IT Crowd
@Nichole765 Me too

Mash
Californication
House
Series of unfortunate events
