Best NBC Must-See-TV Series

For most of the past 40 years, NBC has absolutely owned Thursday nights. The network was never more successful in that endeavor than during the heyday of its "Must-See TV" programming block in the 1990s and early 2000s. Legendary comedies provided the anchors for smaller, but still great, sitcoms to find their footing, and tentpole dramas closed out the night. While the best days of "Must-See TV" are likely behind us, the Great Pop Culture Debate podcast wants to look back and determine the best NBC "Must-See TV" Show of all time.

Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Amy Pilott, Jim Czadzeck, and Kevin Dillon as they discuss and debate 16 series that aired as part of NBC's legendary Thursday-night programming block.
