In an era of “drama/comedy series” available on all media platforms, what are your top 3 series of all-time, and what are you currently watching that has you hooked?
 Mike McVay, Cumulus Media: This is Us (NBC), Orange is the New Black (Netflix), and Ballers (HBO).
Todd Shannon, WAPE: I love Life In Pieces, WKRP In Cincinnati is such a classic, and have to go with Seinfeld. I’m currently hooked on Ozark, it’s my favorite show right now. Chris K, The End: Seinfeld is my all-time favorite, Friends is a close second, and Arrested Development. Right now, outside of baseball I watch zero television. Rick Vaughn, Power 94.9: I liked Mad Men. Loved Friday Night Lights. I miss Deadwood. Dukes of Hazzard is the best TV series in history. Currently hooked on Ozark and waiting patiently for Stranger Things.
Jonathan Shuford, WRVW: The Office, Breaking Bad, Friends (I know it’s cliché, but it’s still great). Gotham is my favorite right now but I’m about to start Jack Ryan and Ozark so DON’T RUIN THEM! Rod Phillips, iHeartMedia: All-timers: NYPD Blue, Friends, Seinfeld. Currently watching Ozark, season two is better that season one.
Keith Rothschild, Def Jam Recordings: Top 3: 1. The Sopranos 2. NYPD Blue 3. Breaking Bad. Currently watching: Better Call Saul, Shameless, Ray Donovan. Matt Taulluto, WBYR: The Sopranos, Modern Family and Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee. |
Matt Johnson, KSLZ: Seinfeld, The Office, and Family Guy. I’m currently hooked on 60 Minutes. I watch the Sunday morning version and the Sunday night version every week…I like learning.
Toby Knapp, WASH: Top 3 of all time: The West Wing, The Newsroom, 24 (when it was kicking ass on FOX). Honorable Mention: House of Cards. What has me hooked? Jack Ryan on Amazon Prime! Mike McCoy, WNCI: MASH, Star Trek (the original series), and Justified was a great series on FX. Right now I’m into the new Jack Ryan series on Amazon Prime.
Brian Michel, iHeartMedia / Atlanta: Lost, South Park, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Honorable mention: Hockey Night In Canada (I know not a drama/comedy, but one hell of a series for sure). #GoLeafsGo A bunch of sci/fi dramas like Continuum, Travelers, The 100.

 Jeff Hurley, WLAN: Game of Thrones, Arrested Development, and Magnum P.I. which is a classic and I can watch that anytime. This summer I haven’t really been watching much TV at all.
Heather Deluca, WSJO: Seinfeld, Breaking Bad, Law & Order. And currently hooked on Ozark, The Blacklist, Looming Tower, and The Crown. Jon Zellner, iHeartMedia: Seinfeld, Modern Family, Brady Bunch. Currently watching: This Is Us, The Crown, Stay Here.
Fish Boy, WKRZ: All-timers are A-Team, Seinfeld, and Friends. Currently into: Designated Survivor (which fortunately just got picked up by Netflix), Shameless, Rick and Morty. Dom Theodore, Radio Animal Media Strategies: My fav right now is Billions on Showtime, and Homeland is strong. All time fav would be The Sopranos.
Randi West, WMTX: I’m interested in the new NBC one Manifest. We’ll see if it’s interesting once it debuts. Max Volume, KOZZ: Grimm, The Orville and The Twilight Zone Mase, CD1025: Well…of course The Simpsons, followed by Law & Order (original one…not SVU) and M*A*S*H. Andy Griffith is a VERY close 4th. Currently a Bob’s Burgers junkie. Also digging Paradise PD and Schitt’s Creek. |
Java Joel, WAKS: Seinfeld, Breaking Bad and (don’t laugh) Three’s Company – I’ve seen every episode at least 20 times. A childhood favorite for sure. I’m in between “binge shows” right now. Still gotta catch up with The Walking Dead, but I’m also hearing good things about Ozark and Better Call Saul. Which should I watch?
Sassy, WKXJ: Grey’s Anatomy (I’ll watch this one as long as it runs), Frazier, and a shout-out to my Mom with Golden Girls. Currently I really like the Netflix series Black Mirror. Every single episode is a different story…it’s very cool.
Kobi, WNRW / WLGX: The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, In Living Color, Martin. Honorable Mention: Breaking Bad. Watching now: Ozark, American Horror Story and Better Call Saul.
Brian Mack, WXXL: Was into House of Cards, lost it though when he got all caught up in his allegations. Actually, catching up on the Vietnam-Ken Burns documentary.
Twisted Todd, WTPT: The original Twilight Zone (although the 80’s one was pretty awesome), then it’s a tie between Monk, Chuck, Big Bang Theory (yes, I’m one of THOSE guys) and Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul. My wife got me hooked on Orange is the New Black and I love quite a few other shows on Netflix like A Series of Unfortunate Events and all the Marvel shows. Black Mirror is a fantastic high tech homage to The Twilight Zone that’s definitely worthy of an honorable mention. Plus Netflix and Amazon Prime is literally all I have now. And I can watch when it’s convenient without dealing with DVR.
Jimmy Steal, Power 106: The Sopranos, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Breaking Bad. Currently watching Ozark.
Kevin Kash, WIYY: Shameless, Breaking Bad, Deadwood, A Handmaid’s Tale, The Office. New Jim Carey show Kidding is good, too.Next Week’s Question Of The Week:
