If that’s the case then I died in the Tora Bora caves 20 years ago.

We're kindred spirits, I've never seen an episode

It's quite captivating and very easy on the peepers!! I liked The Tudors when it came out and it's quite alike.

There's 3 stories going on at once, I got through the first season in no time.

Ditto re Breaking Bad!

I think in order;

Breaking Bad (daylight second)
Ozarks
Dexter (original series)
Schitt's Creek

I'm sure I'm missing a ton that I've watched and can't remember.

Remiss of me not to add Ted Lasso in this list too! Happy to add Sopranos in there as well, as I forgot about that one.

Yep, Ted makes it onto my top 5.

Underbelly 1 & 2 both rate very highly with me, I have both box sets that I have to watch at least once a year, I think the first one grabs me more as I remember it all happening along with hearing the Hinch/Williams interview live.

I would love to watch the Soprano's from go to woe, wathcingt on tv had it jumping seasons all over the shop, maybe next.

Me neither, my eldest daughter and brother had been on my case for years to give it a crack, I can't say that I'm disappointed.
