Once described as the “idiot box,” television has come a long way since its beginnings in the middle of the 20th century. Garnering the comparison as film’s lesser cousin, the format has earned its chops in the last two decades and now stands as a highly regarded and much-loved form of entertainment.

In anticipation of what’s to come, we’ve compiled a list of the 20 best TV series from the past 20 years. Featuring a wide selection, these are the shows that have stuck out and made a big cultural impact. Peep one of our 20 picks above and see the rest over at Green Label.
