What is your favorite non Star Trek show?

DS9 and TNG are my all time favorites. But after that there has been some good sci-fi shows as well.

Other favorite shows for me are:
1. Battlestar Galatica: Basically an anti Star Trek show, but a brilliant show.
2. The Expanse: Love the books and love the show.
3. Quantom Leap: A great old show.

Also, while it is not Sci-Fi, it is a Fantasy Show:
1. The Walking Dead
2. Lost
3. Fear the Walking Dead
