Top shows of 2000s

http://www.avclub.com/articles/the-best-tv-series-of-the-00s,35256

So, this list made me mad. I found it incredibly narrow in focus and really Ameri-centric (not that a list of my own making wouldn't suffer the same problems). I'm going to run a poll and hopefully come up with a top 10 or 30 shows of the 2000s. Comment with your nominations, including any shows mentioned in the poll. Any genres are acceptable, as long as they ran for at least a technical season during the 2000s (being canceled during said season still leaves them eligible). Number of nominations will not effect the first round of voting.

Nominations will run until November 21.

Making this public so it has the chance of being unbiased, therefore I ask you NOT to pimp it to any fandom communities. However, please do link it to friends with varying tastes.

Gonna say, as a person who didn't watch a whole lot of television until 2005, I actually agree with most of the shows sited on the list. Sure, I'm not one to watch The Sopranos or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but I did feel that a lot of it was pretty accurate, based on what I heard people talking about around me. Saying that, here are the shows -I- watch(ed) and loved tremendously:

**How I Met Your Mother** (all-time favorite since episode 1)
Arrested Development
LOST
Firefly
Futurama
CSI: Las Vegas
The Office (US)
Scrubs
Eureka
Breaking Bad
Flight of the Conchords
Glee

I've seen bits of 30-Rock and loved them, just not enough to really warrant being on my list of top shows.
